Features:

• The Dark Drake Breastplate is a finely sculpted piece of armor that protects the front of the torso, chest and abdomen. The plate rests at the hips and has a V-shaped flange or sword turner, that deflects blows from the weak spot where the torso and leg armor fit together
• The Dark Drake Shoulder Plates are a set of two shoulder guards with spaulders, pauldrons and besagues. The spaulders have four scale-like ridged metal plates or lames, overlaying one another to provide laminate protection of the upper arms. Overlaying the spaulder is a large pauldron, which provides additional protection to the shoulder joint and armpits. Besauges (small round convex metal shields) tied onto the spaulders with leather cords add further protection to the armpits
• To protect the thighs and groin, the set includes the Dark Drake Upper Legs. Two sets of steel plates hang from the hips to cover the outer thighs. A third set of slimmer plates cover the groin area and provide some protection to the inner thighs. The set comes with a full grain leather belt with suspenders to keep the piece in place
• The Dark Drake Arm Protection is a set of vambraces designed to protect the forearms in combat. The vambraces sit comfortably over the forearm, reaching from the elbow and narrowing at the wrists
• The last piece of this armor set is the Dark Drake Leg Protection which is a set two demi-greaves shaped to protect the shins, while leaving the room for poleyns to cover the kneecaps
