Siforek
A Siforek is a religious covering worn by followers of the Zeshem religion when venturing out of their sacred lands. It is intended to cover the body and insulate it from outside pollution, diseases, and toxins, though it hasn't exactly been tested in that capacity.
Siforeks come in many colors and styles, but are often large, bulky, and baggy in a way that partially conceals the shape of the person's body. A good Siforek can do this without overheating the body or restricting the movement of the wearer.
Siforeks vary wildly in quality (like any garment) and depend on their purpose. A Hunters of Norinar's Siforek is typically well-built for movement and protection, helping reinforce and conceal light armor while also helping keep the inner layers of clothing dry and free of contamination. Some Hunter Siforeks even come with face masks that can go under the Zeshem Mask to insulate the wearer from poison gas, spores, or diseases for brief periods of time. A common peddler's Siforek would be far less effective, though it might provide some protection from water, spores, or other contact threats.
Siforeks are ritually consecrated by Zeshem priests with herbs and water from the sacred rivers of Holy Zeshema, to allow the wearer to always be in the sacred land.
