Is the bikini armor costumes? (or are people walking around without a chest piece?)

I see lots of people in "bikini armor". Usually accompanied by body markings which can look pretty good,.

afaik, there are only a few costumes that look like this in the crown store. OTH, I see lots of characters in varied topless costumes. Did they actually craft the armor pieces they are wearing (instead of using a costume) and unequip the chest when they are walking around town?

Or were there more bikini costumes in the past?

Im not aware of any way to create a costume without a chest piece and I don't see any motifs that look like this.

My guess is that they are actually taking off their armor when wandering in town.

    __________________________Backstories:_________________________

    Ras Kalik the Vestige, a renown Redguard warrior; He has been blessed to save Tamriel from Molag Bal’s destructive Planemeld while reuniting the Five Companions. His further accomplishments after defeating Molag Bal, has been to stop the destruction of Morrowind, the Clockwork City, return order to the isle of Summerset and create a new king in Wrothgar and a queen in Elsywer. These events have made him a living legend and continue to lead him into new adventures throughout Tamriel, as well as into the hearts of many ladies including the Elf Queen, Aryenn. Over many years of adventurous travels, Ras Kalik had become a loner, until he re-visited his homeland of Alik'r.

    Alik'r and it's cities were overrun by the undead Ra-Netu and therefore he made an allegiance with Alik'r's own Ash'abah tribe. These Ash'abah with his help, cleansed the city of Sentinel in Alik'r desert and it's surrounding areas of the undead brought to life by the Withered Hand. After rescuing Sentinel from the undead zombies, King Fahara’jad’s personal bodyguard the Goliath of Hammerfell, who was given this name by Imperials in the region; was asked to assist the tribe after learning of the defeat of the Withered Hand to the Ash'abah. Kalik promised Goliath he would task him with fighting living enemies on the battlefield if he so desired. Goliath being a Yokudan warrior wields a massive sword in respect to the Ansei, a gift given by the Imperial, Cinan Tharn. Not many soldiers are able to wield double two handed weapons, but Goliath loves to get up and personal in a fight, so he also carries a giant maul, both weapons laced with magical flames.

    Jux Blackheart is a master thief that masquerades as a Bard at the Sisters of the Sands inn, with his younger sidekick Lucky Hunch for pilfering and gambling during this time. Jux was known to infiltrate any towns bank vault he came across and even delved into Ayelid ruins without detection. Kalik can vividly recall the night he met the famed thief. Jux found himself rummaging thru a slightly inebriated Kalik’s pocket for too long, on a full-mooned night and because of his greed and the glimmer of his golden armor in the moonlight. He lost his left pinky fingertip as a lesson! But in return, he gained a new friend, as it was his first time since a child being caught red-handed...

    Upon arrival back in the Alik'r after many moons of adventuring, Ras Kalik ventures to Bergama. Visiting The Winking Jackal, he runs into Jux Blackheart, who introduces him to the coin game Crowns vs Forebearers (Heads vs Tails) and Golden Dwemer (RBG).... Jux constantly takes gold from the unfortunate thru theft or gambling, his biggest gambling victim is actually his partner in crime known as Lucky Hunch the Gambler. Lucky doesn't mind losing any gold coins to Jux... as Jux saved him from Altmer slavers in Summerset, by stealing a key and sending him on a boat to the mainland years prior. Lucky spent years in slavery with Khajiits in Summerset and picked up the art of subterfuge, using illusion magic disguises and stealing there.

    Kaotik Von’Daemon an outcast, and a half-caste between a Breton mother and a Redguard father. Kaotik become a pariah due to his conjuration of Daedra pets. He was taught healing magic during his childhood years by his Breton mother. His father due to Redguard customs exiled him from the desert, sending him by wagon caravan to be a soldier in the war in Cyrodiil. He happened to meet Kalik while traveling from Alik'r, during this long caravan ride the caravan he was in was ambushed in Bangkorai by a group of bandits. Kalik by chance was also traveling thru this area on his Auridon Warhorse (which was bestowed to him by his friend, Darien Gautier). During this ambush, Kalik was able to rescue five hostages from the bandits. Kaotik was the first rescued, and Ras Kalik also recruited him to be in the Ash'abah tribe. These core Ash'abah tribesmen may never be seen together in travel as they partake in their own adventures but they always know what each other is doing; as they frequent a hideout in northern Bankorai. Their hideout an old Orc castle ruin, is kept watch by Nuzhimeh and she passes messages written between them, and frequently they also enjoy her company and her bed.

    The other men rescued were a Dunmer banker, an Imperial mercenary and two other soldiers, an Imperial and a Breton Knight, stating proudly he was an Akavir descendent. One of the Imperials, Cinan, claimed to be related to Abnur Tharn the Battlemage of the Imperial Elder Council (One of Ras Kalik's mentors in the Five Companions). Cinan Tharn was really Abnur's drunkard treasure hunting illegitimate son. He was caught smuggling artifacts out of the Ayleid ruins in Cyrodiil and the elder of the two Imperials was Tyrus Septim a retired Imperial navy battle-mage (now a Lycan mercenary living in the city of Rimmen) and guard to the Tharn family. As much as Abnur Tharn hated his half-sister Euraxia, he dislikes his bas†ard son Cinan more. Tyrus now a ruffian and privateer had been paid by Abnur Tharn to watch over Cinan as much as possible. Cinan Tharn a drunkard, loves to drink at least a quarter barrel of Nord mead before he raids various delves and dungeons for relics to sell on the black market. Cinan also plans to one day, run an illegal gambling ring... which he thinks will net him more gold for his wares.

    The Dunmer captive shackled to the Imperials looked familiar to Kalik from his time in Morrowind.... and he recognized him as Tythis Andromo a House Telvanni slave-owner and banker from Vvardenfell. During a rough interrogation to Tythis, Ras Kalik learnt why the bandits accosted him. The racist Dunmer was providing slaves as soldiers for the Three Banner War. The bandits were trying to negotiate a lucrative ransom for Andromo and the Imperials.... Kalik did not need any of this gold and he could never set Tythis free as he did with the two Imperial soldiers. His past involvement with slavery and war crimes, made Kalik's blood boil. He chose not to execute Tythis, as he figured the worse punishment for this former rich and opulent slave owner, is to now be an imprisoned servant for Ras Kalik and the tribe.

    Herzog Zwei the Genesis a reknown Imperial/Akavirri battle-mage. His roots going back to Akavir through his mother’s bloodline. (His mother is descended from the Akaviri, through Versidue-Shae, and his Imperial father met her in Hakoshae, while traveling) Herzog earned the nickname "the Genesis" from his father as a child, as he was his mother's first born child, and last, as she tragically died in child-birth.

    Herzog was seeking to purchase an artifact from Cinan Tharn, before their capture and was meeting Tyrus while in Rimmen, who introduced him to Cinan. This artifact being the Ayelid artifact; the sword Sinweaver. After their rescue and the exchange of gold to Cinan for the sword he decided to slip away before Ras Kalik could question who he was, and why the Akavir descendant really wanted that sword. Herzog was headed to Nagastani — An Ayleid ruin in eastern Cyrodiil. He had read in scrolls that the Sword would give him magical powers to meet his mothers spirit, if he performed an Ayleid ritual at an old shrine hidden there. Equipped with the artifact sword, he was off to start his own adventure but Ras Kalik, did indeed notice the sword however and instead sent a letter to Jux Blackheart (whom also was interested in Ayleid treasures), to attempt to find Herzog and acquire the sword. (*Azani Blackheart in Elder Scroll's Oblivion is Jux's descendant some 747 years later)

    And so the Redguard, Imperial and Akaviri men parted ways ... While Ras Kalik went off to Elsweyr to encounter the latest threat to Tamriel, with Abnur Tharn and Sai Sahan - - DRAGONS!! Little did Ras Kalik know a few people were awaiting him in Senchal besides Sai. A necromancer survived his attack on the Withered Hand, while in Alik'r. The necromancer known as Auriek Siet'ka is also following him to the land of the Khajiits and Cacique the Sage of Ius a Shaman mystic who has become attuned spiritually with Tu'whacca (a Redguard God) and Ius (the Animal God), after being burned severely by the escaped dragons in Elsywer, is awaiting his arrival also. Aurik is a soldier of the Daggerfall Covenant that was introduced to necromancy while in the military, even though this magicka art is not spoken of openly by most of the Military leaders. He came to Alik'r and worked with the Withered Hand before Ras Kalik intervened on their plans. After the defeat of the Withered Hand, he aligned with the Worm Cult, and is constantly adapting and perfecting his necromantic arts.

    After his journey to Rimmen, Kalik heads south to Senchal, in the southern regions of Elyswer. This new adventure will also put him on a path to meet a strange Redguard man. The stranger which was infected with an untreated Peyrite disease and also was the exiled from the Order of the New Moon cult, due to his sickness. He originally joined the cult to worship Laatvulon, the green dragon, mistakenly thinking it was the Daedric prince Peyrite. This confused and suffering cultist is known as Tsar al-Bomba and he is on a path to spread the disease. He was originally infected in Orccrest while recruiting members there. Can Ras Kalik and the shaman Cacique cure this poor soul, only time will tell. Little does Tsar al-Bomba know, that his infection is tied to Vampirism, and eventually the desire for blood will take over his mind. Senchal also offers Kalik his latest love interest... Aeliah. Whom he fondly led thru battles with the Dragonguard.

    After the trek thru the heat, tropical and desert climate of Northern and Southern Elyswer, Ras Kalik heads north to the cold mountain range of Skyrim. His companion friend Lyris beckons for him with a letter sent by crow...

    Movárth Piquine - a former vampire hunter (now infected), within the Fighter's Guild (and a secretive necromancer) was in Skyrim working with the Morthaal Guard. On a patrol mission he was caught in Frewien's ice curse outside of Morthaal with the frozen undead. Movárth's vampiric infection kept him from becoming an undead minion to the curse. He was able to use necromantic ice-magic to encase himself safely until he was freed with Freiwen, when the Vestige Ras Kalik broke the curse.

    Uri Ice-Heart - brother of Urfon Ice-Heart. The twin sons of Atli and Oljourn Ice-Heart. The Ice-Heart family are originally from Markarth but now reside on the Jerall Mountain range near Cyrodiil, with their younger sister Araki. The twins had joined the Winterborn Reachmen while living in Markarth. Urfon pushed west to Orsinium with the Winterborn Clan, leaving his family behind. Uri stayed behind with his parents and sister to live in the family cabin for safety, avoiding the Vampire plague infiltrating the Reach. After news reaches him and he hears of Urfon's death... Uri leaves and heads home and is seeking vengeance. Meanwhile, his sister has also moved on to Windhelm to join the Fighter's guild. He will visit his sister, once before going to seek vengeance and she will craft him armor mixed with ice, called Stalhrim armor. Uri fearing death, after his brother's passing, falls victim to the convincing talk of Movárth at a Nordic tavern, and will also becomes a vampire.

    Last one isn't really bikini armor but shows some skin.

    I probably missed a few styles but there are a few that show off skin and could fall within the "bikini armor" category.

    As for costumes we don't have a whole lot of "armor" but there are a lot of regular outfits that show off skin. Here's a link to the full list.

    I got the minotaur chest motif. The light version has a couple of bandoleer type straps, and otherwise it's bare chested. Looks very manly on my manly dk.

    If it's in town, it's probably just people with no gear items equipped. Honestly I have a few alts (male characters) that are running around in their briefs because I only do crafting writs on them and would need to pull gear off another character if I was outfitting them for actual game play. So... I just let them run around town in their skivvies - which probably what a lot of other people are doing in the "bikini armor" you see.

    There are a few bare chested styles on Male characters, that are not bare chested on Females. Obvious unfortunate reason is obvious.

    Yes, but if you have a Skin on whats the point in covering it up. Some of the skins have specific chest effects.

    there is a long and proud real world tradition of fighting in almost nothing (or somtimes, nothing)

    thats not to say they were defenseless, as the often used large shields.

    i know quite a few Germanic / European cultures fought pretty bare, as did quite a few on the British isles, even contemporary tribes (like Africa) to this day fight very bare, not even going into ancient cultures like Aztec etc.

    sometimes its a pride thing, or a scare tactic, other times its very practical as your not weighted down by anything and can move around freely, combat is VERY exhausting and depending on the circumstances if both parties are wielding a spear and shield, the follow up of:

    do you want full plater armor and helm or. . .nothing, is actually not a very obvious one.

    thats not even getting into the expense or craftsmanship of armor / full plate.

    (on an aside i remember a scene from pocahontas / new world movie with colin farrel, didnt watch the movie but caught the scene. )

    where he is walking in knee deep bog water in full spanish plate armor and helm, and the natives make easy work of bringing him down because he just cannot move or function in that environment and they can move just fine.

    There was no objection and no grammar policing in my post. If it makes you feel better, your sentence was gramatically correct as far as my limited knowledge of the English language allows me to judge.

    I simply made fun of the two similar sentences, which each means something else and mine meant basically the opposite to yours. :)

    You said that some room should be left for imagination by keeping more skin covered.
    I said hardly any room actually was left for imagation by keeping so little skin covered.

    Grammar parse humor is not humor. And there was no pun.

    Leaving "a little" to the imagination. Is the same as leaving "little" to the imagination. Your sentence had an equivalent meaning.

    I don't agree that a reasonable person would translate you grammar parse into the meaning of your second sentence (above). Based on your star rating, you are a forum regular and have been posting here for years, so other people are likely to support your interpretation even if it makes no sense.

    It was a bad joke based on an incorrect grammar parse. Let it go.

    Yes, they are doing almost exactly that, almost to the letter (minus one tiny "a"), leaving little to the imagination. ;)

    Let me add the Argonian style to the skimpy outfits:

    Grammar police are always the life of the party!

    I don't think you understood the pun in my post. :p Compare the different meanings of the two sentences:

    1. Leaving a little imagination.
    2. Leaving little imagination.

    I did understand, but "grammar police" is the closest description of your objection.

    There is no pun there. There is no humor there.

    There was no objection and no grammar policing in my post. If it makes you feel better, your sentence was gramatically correct as far as my limited knowledge of the English language allows me to judge.

    I simply made fun of the two similar sentences, which each means something else and mine meant basically the opposite to yours. :)

    You said that some room should be left for imagination by keeping more skin covered.
    I said hardly any room actually was left for imagation by keeping so little skin covered.

    Grammar parse humor is not humor. And there was no pun.

    Leaving "a little" to the imagination. Is the same as leaving "little" to the imagination. Your sentence had an equivalent meaning.

    I don't agree that a reasonable person would translate you grammar parse into the meaning of your second sentence (above). Based on your star rating, you are a forum regular and have been posting here for years, so other people are likely to support your interpretation even if it makes no sense.

    It was a bad joke based on an incorrect grammar parse. Let it go.

    Omg.... Leaving a little to the imagination and living little to the imagination mean the OPPOSITE.
    Where was the incorrect grammar in anyone's statement? Please tell.

    Love the conspiracy theory though... Forum stars = hivemind?!?!

    See my above post.

    That was just one small step to imagine, and one giant leap for imagination.

    No hard feelings on my side, and no insult meant from me either. I am glad it went this way. :)

    If characters are bare-chested in town, they might just be using an outfit that displays "no item worn" in that slot?

    I do not think you can do that. As far as I know, an empty outfit slot simply displays the equipped item.

    Outfits cannot remove anything but the hat/head gear.

    It would be nice to have more choices like this.

    If you want to use the outfit station to design your own look, and you want that look to include a skin, or, especially, a set of body markings, you have about... half-a-dozen choices for outfit styles. (Fewer if female.) That's out of 84 total numbered motifs, plus all the non-numbered bits. And the first 10 motifs make up 40 different styles.

    It's kind of silly.

    I figured the Crown Store aspect of skins and markings would get them to design a few more motifs without chin-to-toe coverage.

    Example:
    lW9W8HC.png

    Not trying to run around stark naked. Only trying to display the big circular tattoo in the body marking.

    Out of 514 different chest-slot options that I can see at the outfit station (several of which are greyed out), exactly FOUR show off the whole circle: skinchanger jerkin, skinchanger robe (which is the same thing, with a skirt), wood elf jack 1, and wood elf jack 2 (which are at least a smidgen different from each other). Even the previously-mentioned Fang Lair, Minotaur, and Sai Sahan motifs don't show it.

    More choices, please. Three-plus-a-skirt is not enough.

    Interesting how the lower body markings look like two eyes (with curved eyebrows), a parted pencil moustache, and the belly button saying "ohhhh".
