Epic Armoury’s Black/Desert Beige Claw Bracer is a leather gauntlet designed to protect the lower arm with a good measure of old-fashioned and brutally offensive spikes. Constructed of overlapping plates connected by leather ties, move freely while still benefiting from complete coverage from the back of the hand to the elbow. Of course, this armour is not without style! Flexible leather ‘claws’ adorn the back of the hand like claws, while each leather plate has its own unique and spiked flair. A desert beige plate at the elbows also features runic drawings--perhaps infused with the powers of necromancy.

The Claw Bracer is made from full-grain leather that has been vegetable tanned. Attach the Claw Bracer to your left arm using the leather straps around the elbow, forearm and wrist. A soft leather strap is also tightened around the hand, with a loop fitted around the middle finger. Fearsome to behold and designed to appear sharp and deadly, use this armour with an assortment of secretive and dangerous characters. It can be worn with Epic Armoury’s matching Dark Elf armours or on its own.

Please note that this gauntlet is designed for left-hand use.

Dark Hand Protection

• Hand protection is one of the oldest forms of armour, due to its importance in combat
• This particular style might also be referred to as a “demi-gauntlet,” due to its limited finger protection

Your House waits for sleep to take your rivals before making an advance on their fortress. While the element of surprise will give you an advantage, forcing the rival house to fall will still require a bloody battle this night.

You are one of your family’s best fighters, and you lead your small army of slaves and allies with your Dark Elven Glaive in hand.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Elven Glaive is a weapon specifically designed for the Dark Elven collection. This 190 cm glaive features a finely sculpted, double-edged blade with a deep fuller. Spinal shaped spikes add to the blade’s bone appearance, along with the handpainted and sculpted detailing. The shaft is a smooth 90 cm long pole, finished to look like dark wood.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a solid fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your battlefield kit.

INSPIRATION

• A fuller, or the groove that runs the length of the blade, was added to weapons to lighten the blade while adding structural strength
• Dark elves were first mentioned in Norse mythology as the Dökkálfar or Svartálfar written in the Prose Edda in the 13th century

When you fear a battle at any moment, you seldomly travel anywhere without your armour. You especially fear an unsuspected dagger reaching for your throat, and that’s why you have your Dark Elf Gorget.

The dark leather and functional design make this neck protection an essential survival piece in the underdark, and you would not go without it.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Elf Gorget is leather armour designed to protect the neck and upper chest. Made from black full-grain leather, this armour is made of several overlapping plates, creating flexibility and comfort while still protecting the thorax and neck. The shoulder plates are removable, and are shaped in traditional dark elf fashion. All exposed edges are reinforced with durable stitching to prevent it from deforming with excessive use.

Secure the Dark Elf Gorget around your neck by sliding your head through the neck hole--the back will open to allow you to do this--and tightening the leather straps around the ribcage. Fearsome to behold and designed to appear sharp and deadly, use this armour with an assortment of secretive and dangerous characters. Wear it on its own or pair it with Epic Armoury’s matching Dark Elf armours.

HISTORY

• Inspired by armour historically made from metal
• Historically designed with sculpted ridges and overlapping plates to provide reinforced protection and to deflect attacks on a chaotic battlefield
• Also referred to as a gorget, which means throat
• Early versions were typically worn under the breastplate and backplate to support the weight of the heavy plate armour

DETAILS

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.
