"Riddle me THIS, wizard: Who is in garish Technicolor when all else is drab and brown?"

"Hey! Where are you going? I was just about to play a 30 minute version of Stairway to Heaven!"

Those are SOME BOOTS!

GSS to all! It's like the old days.
I'm not eliminating the possibility that Mr. Technicolor is posing in front of an old sepia-tone photo backdrop at the mall.
If the pants were a colorful skirt and the boots were all purple/orange, I'd say "It's giving RuPaul's Drag Race and he's gonna sashay away."
Ah, heck, I'm saying that anyway.

I can see why he's carrying the crown. It left marks on his forehead (HED, maybe?) when he tried to wear it.

His fashion sense includes a medieval fanny pack.

That's a sporran. "I didn't mean to kill the old harpist whose ghost haunts me. We were just sporran around."
The way the naked dirk is tucked behind the sporran looks ... hazardous.

>11 paradoxosalpha: Yeah, wouldn't want to trip on the stairs...

>11 paradoxosalpha: I actually knew what a sporran is. I suppose it wouldn't have kilt me to call it one. But fanny pack is funnier.
Fanny pack. Heh-heh.

>12 bam2001: Maybe the harpist/wizard/ghost? is trying to warn him that wearing the dagger that way and going down stairs with his hands full of a crown while wearing those side-heavy boots may end his glorious reign of lurid fashion.
One slip, he falls and severs his femoral artery, it's all over.

What's with three gold stars on his forehead? Did he get them from the teacher for doing well in riddle master school?
(I do wonder why he's carrying the crown. Is he delivering it to someone at the bottom of the stairs?)
Edit: >Hammy_JLK If they're piercings, wearing the crown atop them could potentially be quite painful.
