One of the Kroridians passes you your new pair of plate gauntlets. You put these gauntlets on, fastening them at the inside of your wrists. With that, you're now wearing your new full set of armor.
You were able to slip on your new brigandine armor by yourself, just like your old coat of plates.
You step over to a mirror, where you stare at your reflection in disbelief.
Seeing this new armor nearly brings a tear to your eye.
The brigandine cuirass is dyed a dark green, the same color as your tunic. Small metal studs dot the fabric, attaching it to the steel plates beneath. At the edge of the cuirass, a skirt of mail stretches down to protect your thighs.
At your waist, your cuirass is pulled tight, your belt strapped around it. Your scabbard hangs from your belt.
Plate greaves protect your lower legs and knees. Chainmail protects the vulnerable joints of the armor where the plate cannot. Above the gauntlets, vambraces and rerebraces of plate protect your forearms and upper arms, respectively. Pauldrons with the Ravarian spiral engraved into them protect your shoulders.
Beneath it all, you're wearing a specially designed arming jacket. It's a padded shirt with sleeves and a collar of mail, which the arm plates are sewn onto.
On your head, you're wearing a padded coif, followed by a coif of mail to protect your neck, followed by your new helmet. The visored bascinet is made from plate and is designed with the newest technology available. You're able to raise and lower the visor according to the situation.
With your visor raised, you can look into your cunning eyes. You can see the scar running over your left eye.
It is Darin who hands you the next piece.
