Attire; Heinsfell dresses in his full uniform at almost all hours of the day, the only time he removes his armour and gowns are when he requires cleanliness or deep sleep [Which, by his training alone is a rare occurence].
His armour is light and unpretentious, he forgoes the intricate stylings of those of his order as he deems the linework and engravings too unsightly. His undergarments include a layer of lightweight metal weaved leggings, easily able to fend off most blades and arrows. His torso is protected by a likewise weaved metal shirt, much like chainmail but far finer and more delicate in appearance.
On top of this he wears a loose inner skirt made of soft silk, more for show than any form of defense. His torso is guarded by a chainmail suit lined with a crimson cloth.
The only other occasion for a change of clothes are very formal dates in his calendar, which are rare. He tends to wear very eccentric white clothes and incorporates vibrant red to show his standing in courts.
Weaponry; While well trained in the use of blackpowder weaponry, and many forms of archery, Heinsfell prefers to fight his enemy hand to hand, ensuring he can avoid killing.
He tends to carry a single stake for if he meets any of the less common of his targets. It is a beautifully carved shaft of oak given to him by his Order. But his main weaponry consists of a lethally keen Estoc crafted of steel, a smooth engraving runs down the blade in the form of ivy.
And his more favoured weapon, a heavy, long shafted axe. Its blade is long and curved and the tip of the shaft if capped in a sharp metal sleeve. He weilds it two handed most often, making every sweep of the blade like the stroke of a brush.
