I called it "Light" mainly because I dropped the greaves in favour of Faramir-style boots and omitted any chain-maille, as well well as replacing the long six-lamed tassets with smaller one piece ones. An important factor in the design was to eliminate any hanging plates and instead have it all fitted closely to the body as much as possible. Also, as this is supposed to be a 4th Age harness, I altered the design of the White Tree, basing it on a simplified variation of the White Tree on Arwen's banner, which seems symbolic of the sapling of Nimloth that Aragorn plants. Maybe I'll do full armour sometime later.

I'd probably be a Ranger of the North. I'd have a earthy colored cloak to blend in some good walking/running boots, a bow, and maybe a knife or two. My sword would be of medium length and double edged. I wouldn't have a shield because I think they're just too hard to carry on the run for a long time. I'd go on foot when I could, riding a horse when necessary.

I would very much like to be an Elven archer from Lothlorien. But in reality, I would probably not be a fighter at all. I would probably embark on a bard's journey; that is, travel around Middle Earth and tell tales and sing songs in the different royal courts. Either that, or travel around so that I could study different cultures and languages, being a Gondorian scholar of the race of Men. Both as a bard and a scholar, I would probably be armed very lightly, but carry all sorts of books and journals so that I could record my journey on paper.
