Lord Foul - Clothed in divine splendor... or stark naked?

Post by Krilly »

Donaldson never really describes the Despiser's attire does he? Correct me if I'm wrong. So I was thinking the other day (for no particular reason might I add, because I do not hold some sort of fetish for fictional gods of evil) that Lord Foul may be nekkid!

I mean, is he swathed in nothing but his flowing beard? Or does he sport some bling bling Nike wear? First rate dramatic armor of destruction? Atleast maybe a simple robe or Fruit of the Loom?

Just something that has been bothering me...

Perhaps we could run a poll -- Lord Foul -- tighty whities, boxers, or commando? :lol: :lol:

Hehe, nothing like throwing the world and Time itself into utter and complete despair all while in the comfort of smooth 100% cotton. ;)

I know I would despair if I had to look at a portly guy in tighty whitey's that are way to small.

I think if Lord Foul did wear clothing, it would be impeccably tailored. It would just be another way for him to show scorn for the people of the Land. Foul to Covenant:

"Bah! Those fey and anile fools believe they dress better than I? Let them walk about in their feeble attire, hardly daring to dream that such perfection as my wardrobe exists! Their petty raiment is condign wear, for they themselves are fashion disasters like you, groveler! Heed my message well: for Drool Rockworm has found the Armani Stone, though he does not comprehend its terrible power. Before the end of seven seasons in the Land, I will have the command of all undergarments in my hand. Think on that, and be dismayed!"

He's dressed as Liberace, of course.

Don't you remember the Candelabra on the Illearth stone?

The bling-bling confused people of the land for millennia.

I agree with Matrixman.......Armani! Perhaps Ralph Lauren if he's feeling casual.

And very dry Martini's! 8)

I usually wear shorts and a Beatles T-shirt, for the record.

Hmmm...I would think that Foul dresses similarly to Iron Chef's gourmet, Chairman Kaga:

Lord Foul must be a bit of a scally...chav...townie...etc. I can see him in a Kappa shellsuit, a cap, and 12 lbs of imitation gold bling.

Or pyjamas. With a teddy bear on them.

And I believe in you

I will remember you
and what life put you thru.


~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

Cling film with duct tape plus an added pair of hockey socks for protection!
