Description: This plate mail has been expertly crafted. Sheathed in the chitinous scales of the
ankheg, it provides a greater degree of protection than traditional plate mail and is not
succeptible to rust. As any world-weary adventurer will tell you, however, the best
appreciated aspect of ankheg mail is its light weight and low encumbrance. Monsters come
and go but fatigue is a constant enemy.

Description: Few suits of armor in all the Realms are the equal of this full plate. All that remains
of the origin of the Hart are folktales and legends. The most popular of these is that an
impossible battle was once fought against an army of orcs surging through the Three Trees
Pass. Arngor of the Oak led the armies of men and elves and it is said that he dueled with
the orc commander till the sun set and the land was bathed in a bloody mist. Finally the
orc fell but Arngor had sustained wounds too vast for any to save him. His blood soaked
through the armor he wore, infusing it with his courage and nobility. Thus the Armor of
the Hart became known to men.

Description: This armor has been worn by many a fine soldier, but among the best known, and for whom
it was named, was Delver Kinlake. He was a vagabond whose strong sword-arm and keen wits
made him a respected general to the Lords of Waterdeep. A gift from Lord Baeron, the armor
served Delver well for thirty years, and after his death, it passed to his eldest son. It
has since made its way into the hands of a variety of adventurers.

Description: Named by Adarius Shin, the Doomplate is deserving of its foreboding title. He had hoped
to strike fear in his enemies, but Adarius set a grim precedent when he mysteriously died
soon after donning the suit, just as every adventurer who has worn it since has done. It
might be said, however, that most adventurers die in their armor and are not known for
their longevity.

Shuruppak with an enchanted suit of armor, to better enable the Reaper to slaughter his
foes.

grace. It is not known how Shuruppak lost this treasured item, but one could safely assume
he is still looking for it...

armor. He gifted it to the soldier. This armor's curse sickened Libol and hideously
disfigured him, and his wife fled from him in disgust. Libol, trapped in the armor but not
certain of T'rachie's treachery asked to be sent to the wastes for a dangerous tour of
duty against marauding ogres. He never returned and Baron T'rachie was free to pursue
Libol's widow. This armor is cursed and requires powerful magic to remove.
