Persona:

Slade attempts to recreate a dragoon[1] from approximately the year 1590 in the reign of Elizabeth I[2].
This entails late period clothing and armor. At court events he can often be found in outstanding garb created by the talented Mistress Ariel de Courteney. On the tournament/war field, he has been seen in a full coat of scale, a stainless anime/anima[3], and most recently a titanium anima with brass edging. A mild steel close helmet, pauldrons, stainless steel vambraces, hardened and reinforced leather cuisses, and black dragoon-style knee boots complete his fighting kit. He is working on upgrading his helmet to a stainless steel close helmet of similar look to his current helmet.

Occasionally, when socializing with his many Viking persona friends, or as part of the Oak Family, he can be found in a viking 'T' Tunic or other simpler garb.
