“While the pants look a little silly, they do go to show you how much customization is possible with the crafting system,” says Chronicles of Elyria’s latest Kickstarter update about gear layering in the game, and we have helpfully included a screenshot of those very pants above in all their glory.

“What begins as a nice day romping in a field turns worrisome for the unprepared traveler. A wise adventurer would seek shelter from such a storm, lest they become ill or, much worse, get struck by lightning! And before you ask, yes, you can determine the distance between you and a lightning strike by counting, though the system isn’t implemented just yet. And with Elyria’s scale being different than ours, it’ll likely be around one second per 100 meters, rather than one second per kilometer. Even still, if the sound of thunder and the sight of lightning doesn’t make you want to run for cover, we’re not doing it right.”
