Hi i was wondering what you meant by a more realistic colors on my skin

Most textile dyes in this time period did not hold their color as well as modern day clothes. And they would fade rather quickly, usually after even a single wash. While bright, vibrant dyes existed, if you saw them regularly on someone, that generally meant that they were constantly buying new clothes.
The concept that purple (or really) vibrant red was the color of nobility was rarely due to sumptuary laws, but just that those were the hardest dyes to keep vibrant after a wash, so they were only seen on brand new clothing and only the Supreme rich could afford that for every day life.

As a child Fredrik was raised in a small town in the kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska. As a boy he was raised in a library ran by his father and because of that spent much of his time reading about the feats of great heroes and mages. His favorite stories were those about the great rune smiths of the past. He aspired to have his own workshop one day to be able to find a master and learn the craft. Fredrik was always a studious boy and was rarely seen without his nose in a book of some kind. Although one day that habit turned out to be bad for him as he was walking up to grandfather's farm and didn't notice that a hog had gotten out of the pen and was rushing towards him it knocked him over and broke his arm, from that day on he couldn't be still when he could see a pig. As he grew he never became a very strong boy, at least in the sense of brawn, but instead focused his mind upon trying to find a master for rune smiting, hoping one day one would just walk in the front of the library, so far non have. He continues to run his family's library after his father's death of natural causes. But he still wishes to travel to the Under Realm of Urguan to find someone to teach him. But alas he stays within the great halls full of books that he cares for and that he hopes to one day share with a child of his own. As his days go on he continues to try to be the best he can be, he even learned how to bind, and print books to add to his collection. As on of the least visited places in his home the library has become lonely, its halls full of knowledge but few to read them. But he still hopes upon hope that one day his dream of becoming a Rune Smith might be realized.
