Props:

Ghost
Costume:
- Dressed as a warrior king in full armor with his beaver up. The Third Earl of Cumberland owned the armor in the image titled Cumberland.jpb. Also the image Cumberalnd.jpg is from the Met’s collection, but this site http://www.medievalrepro.com/Premier.htm, has more detailed images. I think the SHAPE/structure of this suit of armor is good, but with simply a HIGHLY polished silver finish would suffice. His breast plate however would be etched with the Kronborg Castle’s Coat of Arms.
Props:
- Carrying a long sword as in the picture elizarmor.jpg.
- As I’ve mentioned before, I have NO skill or talent for CREATING any drawings or sketches of anything. Moreover, I haven’t any desire to waste our time ATTEMPTING to become skilled with such pursuits! Therefore, I’m limited to images I can find on the internet or in books I have. I am not sure a long sword is appropriate for the ghost king but I’ve spent TOO long looking for an image of a kingly baton!
