    I think you mean Irish and Scottish stuff. The Celts were Germanic.
    river dance please
    Do you mean Irish step dance, or something with arm waving? What about highland dance?
    and kilts would be nice
    SO long as the correct underwear is worn with them....
    Also
    We kinda already have one, though it's unfortunately plain

    I've never heard of that. So no, not everybody knows that. :/


    I wouldn't mind a Gaelic stuff pack, with bagpipes, kilts, dancing and football.

    But I wouldn't want it mislabelled as 'celtic'. The Celts were horrible people, keeping slaves, drowning people, chopping off heads. Nasty stuff. I blame the Victorians for the romaticisation of 'celts'. Some silly wannabe historian mistook early British art for 'celtic' art, and then everyone jumped on the band wagon.

    And as I said, that's all because of a mix up during the victorian era. They are not celtic. The celts were a germanic tribe, they never left mainland europe.

    Dictionaries are wrong.
    They're just repeating the misinformation.

    There were some studies done a few years ago, that showed that the Scottish and Irish were descended from the Basques, not the Celts. They have Basque DNA, not Celtic DNA. To have Celtic DNA, you need to have Germanic ancestry.

    but anyway I'm in shock you don't know about the pinching
    Why would I know anything about it. It's not done here.
    next thing you'll be telling me you don't know about kissing the Blarney Stone
    I don't know much about it. I know more about the Stone of Scone.

    Not at all what I imagined before I clicked.
    I was imagining clothing, designed with Celtic symbols as designs and such, accessories and decor.
    Like Tunics, Robes, Cloaks, modernized but look like they're out of history.

    Have you really met me?

    St Paddys day is barely celebrated here, it's mostly just an extra excuse to visit a pub. Cup day is much more celebrated, women at least wear hats for that.

    The Victorians obsessively messed up a lot of historical information, which has lead to a lot of modern people believing the fiction. Studying ancient history helped me untangle some of the mess, unfortunately, for most people, they'll never study it, and so are stuck with the misinformation that has been adopted by popular culture.

    Kilts are a relatively modern invention
    Clan tartan is a Victorian era invention
    Vikings did not wear horned helmets, though they may have worn horn helmets.
    Stone Circles have a lot to do with Astronomy, not astrology, nor magic.

    Sounds like you're talking about what is known as 'new-age pagan clothing'

    Even the Sidh aren't what they used to be

    I’ve not heard about it either (and my grandmother was Irish!). Oops haha. I guess I’m a bit clueless.

    This would be fun, though! Would love to have kilts and bagpipes. Maybe even Scottish castles...

    I'd welcome ANY pack that included playable fairies! (done right, of course)

    Great ideas overall, really. History is always interesting. Depending on where you come from, we all have our own point of view. And of course, what we learn (school/otherwise) will play a role.

    Not that we really have any of it in my country, across the North Sea from the UK, but I'd embrace more diversity in the game. We don't really have much diversity in my small town. But at least Irish/Scottish is a bit closer to home. Also, US/UK holidays are catching on here.

    And yes, contrary to the popular belief, vikings did not wear horned helmets, maybe except for ceremonial purposes. Horned helmets went out of fashion approximately a century before the vikings.

    not fairies.
    The Sidh/Sidhe. The fair folk, the wild hunt, the Tuatha Dé Danann, the shining ones. The myths that elves are based on.
    They'll steal your infant, and replace it with one of their own.
