[Steppes] More Newbie Questions

[ED Reese]

Hey, n'Lord Stosh,

This is my PERSONAL opinion ~ I think your boots sound fine. :-) As you 
develop a persona, you'll accumulate the knowledge and the desire to tailor 
your garb to that persona, but they sound like a very GOOD "starter", much 
better than sneakers, which is how I started. :-)

Honestly, I think one of the reasons why I went early period to ancient 
period, is because the footwear (bare, or findable style sandals in many 
cases) is so tough to find/do. That, and I look utterly wretched in a veil!

Cheers!
