Though members of the Order of the Thorn are known for protecting their charges and always being of service, that does not mean that they are to be trifled with. In most instances, members of the Order of the Thorn wear bodysuits made of transfabriq, a fabric of Darjonian origin that wraps the wearer like a body suit and can lash out in weaponized ribbons when defense and/or obfuscation is necessary. Transfabriq could be considered as light armor for the Order of the Thorn, as it can be easily hidden under civilian clothing. It is light and lethal but not often since since the Final Purge. One might see transfabriq being used in a ceremonial dance but sightings of use for defense and otherwise are extremely rare. -Tanglepedia ref 783.3c
