Blue,
We shall certainly see thee at the dragonlords castle. Lord Kilber has agreed to outfit Baldr with new wears this year.

Oh, Great Warrior from The North Baldr,

When you have received your new armor from DragonLord K'Zar, I must insist you come visit me across the way at the Pirate ship so we can outfit you with appropriate new weapons to suit such wonderous armor.

A day on which one could wear one's Imperial Stormtrooper getup and be just fine.  If it would be appalling otherwise, it's perfect for the DoW.

I know this reply is a bit late... but it reminds me of one of the funnier moments from my Thanksgiving Friday visit last year, when The Other Brothers (the first show I saw that day) cracked a joke about it.

Are there in fact faires where Stormtrooper/Star Trek/etc garb will get one turned around at the gate?

Someone told me (I think it was year before last) that the stromtroopers were officers.
Not sure but thats what I was told.

They are not.  There are police officers in full uniform around the site.  They are not in costume.

A few of the stormtroopers are cops...they're just not on duty. (Just to clarify)

I know one of the people who dress up in the stormtrooper uniforms and Lady Jessica is right, a few of them are cops in their dane lifes, they are just not on duty.

Not like you gotta worry about them...just wave slowly in front of them and state "These are not the Pirates/wenches/scotts/otherwise drunks you are looking for." Solves everything. Works better if you got a monk in a robe to do it.
