Someone might say that you are a cruel person. The truth is that you aren’t cruel--but you certainly aren’t a hero, either. The Battle of Delle is not one for your homeland or for your own people, but the pay is good and the fighting even better.

Life as a mercenary has made you into a hardened and effective warrior, and while some call it ‘luck’ when your enemy’s sword slides off your Merc Armour, you call it strategy. After all, now your enemy’s heart is a wide open target.

Torso Armour

The Mercenary Torso Armour is a cuirass made from leather and steel covering the front and back of the wearer's torso. The front of this breastplate circles the wearer’s neck in an inverted U-shape, with the chest apex protecting the thorax before sloping around the ribcage to protect under the arms. The lower edge of the breast plate is slightly rounded, allowing it to fit around the crests of the hips and still cover the vulnerable pelvis. The steel plate is fitted on a black leather suit, which straps to the back leather plate at the shoulders and the sides.

Tassets

The Mercenary Tassets are reminiscent of the typical pikeman armour of the late medieval and renaissance era. The piece consists of three broad metal plates overlapping each other to provide laminate protection for the hips and upper thigh. Historically, these laminate plates and its sculpted ridges reinforced the armour and helped deflect the attacks suffered in the large pike mass-brawls of the medieval European battlefield. The tassets leave the pelvis somewhat unprotected, and normally a cod-piece would be added to protect the groin area. The Mercenary Tassets are the only tassets not fully interchangeable with other Epic Armours, as they have been made specially to fit the Torso Armour Merc through a set of square eyelets on the Merc armour. The tassets are secured in place with leather cords.

Shoulder Plates

The Shoulder Plate Mercenary is a set of two shoulder guards. The spaulders are metal plates with sculpted ridges overlapping one another to provide laminate protection for the shoulder-joints and upper arms. The Shoulder Plate Mercenary goes very well with the ‘Merc’ armours but are fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury armours, giving full freedom to customize characters costumes.
