Ever wanted to feel like you could drop a 9-level meteo swarm on every problem? While we recommend finding a less violent fantasy, this new line of Dungeons & Dragons-inspired clothing might help. [It features a full set of fighters, rogues, wizards, and clerics. All are fairly premium LARP gear and, regrettably, are a bit pricey. A full set costs just under $200. Wizard's robe. They give off a powerful vibe.
May stand the test of time. Speaking to PopInsider at New York Comic-Con, Thomas "Beall" Miller, Burgschneider's chief creative officer, promised that the costumes will stand up to some wear and tear. He said, "These costumes are designed to be worn, used, and abused. ...... We want you to be able to run around in the woods with your friends or sit on a table and spill something and still be the same the next day.
Despite my best efforts, I have never LARPed. Nor have I spent time in the lightning trenches. But how competitively priced is this officially sanctioned D&D merchandise compared to, say, a local vendor at a medieval fair?
Of course, they can be purchased individually, so if you already have themed pants and boots, something like this wizard's robe is just under $100. A bit more affordable. However, none of these are low-budget items.
These feel like good shortcuts for someone nervous about navigating a tented field somewhere, but they are a significant investment for a novice hobbyist without deep pockets. I guess I should just buy a costume for myself and sit at home dressed like an assassin. Pursue bliss.
Burgschneider also has two lines planned for December 2023 and spring 2024. In the former, you can be a barbarian, warlock, ranger, or monk; in the latter, you can be a paladin, sorcerer, bard, or druid.
Burgschneider does not mention whether mixing paladin and sorcerer attire can speed up the spell Hold Person to the auto-critical Divine Smite. However, since they also apparently intend to offer a weapon that "can hit your boyfriend or sister unharmed," it is unlikely that they will.
