White Court clothing [BG Spoilers]
Professor Q:
I don't believe we've seen these before, but their style did make me think of Madrigal's arm bands.
--- Quote ---Madrigal, meanwhile, carried a spear with a seven-foot haft, and his arms were wrapped with two long strips of black cloth covered in vaguely oriental characters in metallic red thread. I’d have guessed that they were constructs of some kind, even before I felt the ripple of magical energy in them as he walked with Vitto to stand facing us from thirty feet away.

Perhaps White Vampire practitioners have an affinity for enchanting cloth items.
Griffyn612:
I guess I'm mostly curious about method and origin. We haven't seen much in the way of self-propelled enchanted items in the Dresdenverse. We've seen it in other series like Harry Potter and Alex Versus, but with its physics grounding, the Dresdenverse has so far constituted movement and reaction with intelligent sentient beings.
Between the movement and intelligence and the durability, I don't think we've seen anything like it. Not for Insider folks.
Mira:
What is really creepy about them is they are described as "shrouds." This is usually what is wrapped around the dead..

I think they're supposed to be like body wrap linens. Fashionable ones, of course, because the White Court would stand for nothing less.
I'm picturing something like this but in all white.
Dina:
I imagined it more like a symbiont, like Venom, only white.
