Lakereed Weave

The Galavir Elves of The Sunset Spine have lived at the side of a mana pool for many centuries, and it has come to serve their needs in a wide variety of ways. It provides them with all the nourishment they need with its water - no Galavir has need of solid food if they have a flask from this lake. It grants them power - manifesting in means from physical strength to magic. In addition to this, the lake also provides their clothing.
The reeds that grow around Lake Galavir are plentiful and supple. Over time, the elves learned to strip the reeds down and weave them together into a fabric which is far less coarse than other reed-based fabrics. It serves to make simple garments that are light and airy, and naturally dry very quickly. Lakereed Weave is what has been used to make most of the clothes in the village, the only other real resources for clothing being leathers from local creatures.
It takes a long time to weave even a single garment from so many strands of reeds, and the 'textile industry' so to speak in the town is constantly busy even for their small population. Elves gather a few handfuls of reeds each morning and then return to their gathering spot, where they dry the reeds briefly and strip them down into long thin pieces for weaving. The weavers are nimble fingered, but it can still take them most of a day to make a single outfit. Galavir fashion is therefore, by nature, very plain and mostly standardised.
Though it may not be overly stylish, its function outweighs its form, as the wandering, gallivanting lifestyle of the Galavir is made much easier by these light garments, and now that a group of them are exploring the Plane of Water in The Scheherezade, quick drying garments that are easy to swim in are vital.
