Large Assassin Helmet (Brown)

Your prey is almost within range, tentative as she catches a whiff of something in the air. You have covered yourself in the dirt of the forest and smell more like pine than person, but the deer still seems uncertain.

She steps forward and you pull back the string on your loaded bow, peering down at her through the holes of your Assassin Helmet. This deer will feed you for the rest of the week, so you are careful as you take aim. You mustn’t miss your target if you are to eat.

With a sharp ‘thwap!’ your arrow hits its mark, clean and perfect. A painless end to a noble creature...and your dinner.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Assassin Helmet is an enclosed helmet made from finely crafted, full-grain leather. Its full face-mask has broad eye-holes and a shaped pointed nose to provide excellent vision while still protecting the face with its stiff, durable structure.

Above the eyes, the face-plate is fitted with overlapping leather bands and a hexagonal patch between the eyebrows. These overlapping plates cover the top of the head and form a distinctive leather Mohawk and elongated skull appearance. The helmet fits over the head and is secured with a corded leather brace along the neck hairline.

The Assassin Helmet is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury leathers and metals, allowing freedom to customize your character's looks.
