The iconic RPF uniform has stood the test of time for over seventeen years. From the rebellious Black Puffle Bandana and casual Black Hoodie, through to the steadfast Red Backpack and haunting glow of the Night Vision Goggles!
But despite these items being much-loved staples for any RPF member, more often than not we found ourselves customising the basics with a signature item or two to better represent our personalities and preferences!
LittySkitty
I first spoke with Second in Command LittySkitty, who told me the signature head item they’ve been using since the days of CP Rewritten is “The Wisp hair, because it was the one that matched my real hair the closest. My hair is a darker brown though, and although I have straight hair, I love to wear it wavy a lot. I also love the headband that goes across it, because it adds some texture to the hair that makes it look really good both on the player card and in-game!
Litty then went on to say she enjoys wearing the Peach colour a lot, as it’s her favourite of the basic colours. On CPJ, she also likes the Maroon and Lavender colours!
Lastly: “I like to put a lil’ makeup on in the morning if I have the time you know? I really like the Royal Eyelashes because it adds to my look while still being a bit subtle (I think it’s the least dramatic of the Club Penguin makeup looks)! A non-heavy eyeliner and mascara look is part of my normal makeup routine irl as well”.
T_T
Lieutenant General T_T confessed that he isn’t a huge fan of the original Black Hoodie uniform item, as it feels too casual for an army. He thought something more formal-looking would fit better, which is why he went for this strong body item!
For this big pink hair item, he said: “I honestly just really like the color pink LOL and it seemed like a cool addition to the uniform!” He finished: “especially with the pink uniforms we’ve been using for the [Secret Service] war – it fits particularly well!”
Escobarsdaughter
Officer Cadet Escobarsdaughter has opted for a radically different Rebel uniform, confessing she loves to customise her penguin. The only item from the original RPF uniform she’s kept is the Night Vision Goggles because they’re “iconic” and she still wanted to look like she is a part of the team!
On the Black Motorbike, Esco said: “I wouldn’t be me without the iconic The Black Motorbike. I love it for its sleek design, the sense of freedom it brings, and the fun adventures shared with my biker gang in the game!”
A huge thank you to our three participants this week! It’s been great to celebrate the signature pieces we’ve chosen and learn about the meanings behind them.
