Black Templar Shield

"Oi! Where'd everybody go?" demanded Eric as he wandered the now empty great hall. It had been filled with carousing knights not 20 minutes ago when he went to the latrine. The king had been making some sort of speech about taking the fight to Apostates and glory. He rounded on the terrified servant who was doing her best to start clearing table scraps before the dogs realised that the humans were done.

"I know not, m'lord. They all shouted something about a juice vault??"

THE PALADIN: DEFENDER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

As a holy knight and, divine spellcaster and crusader in the name of good and order, you need to be heavily armed and able to defend yourself. Epic Armoury’s Black Templar shield is the perfect choice for this; a semi-curved kite-shield inspired by 10th to 12th century Normans. Painted with a wooden texture patina overlaid with a black white black striping, metallic edge and a black stylized Maltese cross, this LARP shield will fit perfectly in the hands of a fearless crusader or even a faithful cleric.

Wear the Crusader Shield left- or right-handed with the use of its versatile three leather arm straps on the back, secured through hard EVA foam for a reliable and solid grip made to last. Feel confident that this latex shield will withstand the continued abuse of a LARP with regular latex maintenance.

Designed to be the maximum allowable size under the Swordcraft rules set, this shield has the Epic Armoury tri-position grip to allow you to hold it no matter what style of shield bearer you need to be.
