Dark Elf Gorget

Epic Armoury’s Dark Elf Gorget is leather armor designed to protect the neck and upper chest. Made from black full grain leather, this armor 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 armor with an assortment of secretive and dangerous characters. Wear it on its own or pair it with Epic Armoury’s matching Dark Elf armors.

History

• Inspired by armor 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 armor
