The Cherokee thread

Good afternoon, fellow Cherokees! This is a thread for us.  

My character is V. Wickett Esq., a lawyer who recently arrived in the area. I am based in Göteborg, and would love to share tips and tricks with peeps in the neighborhood.

Any ideas on things we should coordinate pre-larp in the group? Turban fabric, e.g.?

Hello everyone!

I will be playing S. Crock a cherokee warior slave with Scandinavian origin.  I was born in captivity and has belonged to your tribe all my life. My owner is F. Bell.

I would like to discuss with you how to dress and be equipped as a cherokee warrior and as a cherokee slave.

What I've understood, cherokee clothes will not differ that much from what the white people use but do we have some special colours or details that we use and to what extent do we use those? I know there are some examples of that in the texts as well but I would appreciate to have someone to discuss the interpretations of them with. How about weapons and other equipments? Will you use bows or powder weapons? What else will you bring?

I would also like to know how pretty or fancy the cherokee warriors' clothes will be so that I as a slave can make my clothes below that level. If there are any other cherokee slaves I would be happy to have someone to discuss slave clothes with.

I have interpreted it as the cherokee are taking care of their warrior slaves. They want them to survive to be able to fight for them and therefore giving them good but simple practical clothing differing to the clothes of a free warior mostly by look not by function.
