History

The early Golden Age was notorious for it's highly modest sensibilities. Both men and women were expected to show as little skin as possible, and going unclothed or scantily dressed was considered highly improper. This was largely a response to events near the end of the Mage Wars, in which forced removal of clothing was a common form of degradation. Pillaging hordes of former Marconian soldiers were known to round up entire villages, force everyone to strip, and then burn the clothing. Since most commoners in that era only owned one set of clothes, this was a serious problem.

Thus, during the Golden Age, while going uncovered was not associated with immorality, it was considered uncivilized. Even laborors working in the summer were expected to be covered from neck to ankles. Bare arms were considered acceptable, but legs and torsos had to be covered.

Amidst this era, the fifth Pendragon of Slayer Dragons found she had clothing requirements that could not be met by her personal seamstress.
