Undressing Your Seeker/Confessor

I finally finished Richard's segment of the Undressing Your Seeker/Confessor. ^_^

Once again, despite the title the content is really not too suggestive (Maybe a PG?), but you might want to be cautious of where you view since there are several crotch shots ^_~.

Part 2 - Undressing your Seeker


Richard's outfit is composed of three main items:
1. Blue shirt
2. Brown vest
3. Brown pants

1. Blue shirt
The shirt is long sleeved with the sleeves cuffed to just below the elbow. The front has an opening (to showcase his chest ^_~) that generally forms a "V". Rather than being cut like a "V" I would think that it is just a slit down the center and the "V" effect is just how it lays.



2. Brown vest
His vest is a pretty standard vest. It goes down a few inches past his hips. There is some "decorative" stitching along the front and back side seems and around the arm holes. Also, the back has a center seem with large stitching.



As sapphs also pointed out, Richard's vest and Kahlan's dress have the same center-back stitching. Richard's vest obviously is completely open in the front, so unlike Kahlan's dress there is no mystery of whether this is unlaced.

3. Brown pants
The pants are the most complicated thing about Richard's outfit. XD
As you can see, they are a pretty standard pair of pants. They are tight fitting through the thighs, but are a little loose around the calves. I would say they might be slightly tapered through the calf area, but definitely not as fitted as a skinny-jean would be.



Over the pants Richard wears a wide belt and a sword belt (See other items for more details on these). Once those are out of the way we can better see the actual pants.



They lace up and then there is a cloth (same material as the pants) belt that latches over the lacing. The cloth belt does not go all the way around his waist. It is attached at the side seems (you can see where it attaches in the above right photo). And just a little note - from the picture bellow it would appear that in 1x13 Kahlan only got as far as unlatching the cloth belt.


It's a little hard to see, but you can see the belt hanging by Richard's right hip and the pants still appear to be laced.

Other Items
Pendant
I'm told that this is supposed to be the tooth from some animal. Rather than me try to describe this I'll just let you look at the picture.



Arm braces
These seem to be leather and come 3/4 the way up his arm. Each has three belts and buckles that secure them. You can see them pretty good in almost all of the above pictures.

Belts and Weapons
First there is the wide belt that goes over his pants. His actual pants have no belt loops. The loops that this belt goes through are part of an additional piece that goes with the belt.


The Sword of Truth scabbard seems to be attached to one of the loops on the additional piece of this belt. The sword is worn on Richard's left hip.



On his right hip he keeps a knife, and this also seems to be attached to the belt.



The second belt hangs over Richard's hips and is not looped through anything. Instead of a buckle, the belt ties by his right hip.


There is a metal ring that is attached to the belt with a metal band. The other end is then looped though the ring and tied off. If my above speculation on Richard's weapons is correct, then this belt is more ornamental.

Boots
These come to just a little below the knee.


*UPDATE*  - onomastikon found the manufacture of these boots, so now you too can own the boots of the seeker!!  Just head over to  NativEarth

To Conclude
To summarize undressing your seeker: Remove arm braces. Push off his vest, then pull off his shirt (if arm braces aren't removed beforehand they might catch on the shirt, not impossible to deal with, but would cause some difficulty). Untie the belt that goes across his hips, then unbuckle the other belt. Boots should be removed before attempting to remove pants, but when exactly this happens is up to you. Unlatch the cloth belt on the pants and then unlace them. Finally, remove pants. I guess that leaves us with the question: What do seekers wear underneath their pants? XD Well, unless we get some confirmation in the show I'd say that will be up to you. ^_~ Although my guess would be nothing. XD Of course if some items have been removed at an earlier time there would be some variations in this, but this gives you an idea of how to deal with a fully dressed seeker.

Wow, I thought Richard would be really simple, but that actually turned out to be pretty complex.
