Rogue Female Armour

The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. You have a reputation as one of the deadliest rogues in the city, with knife skills to rival even the King of Thieves. He’s actually a close friend of yours...he’s the one who gave you such fine Rogue Female Armour, after all.

Those who don’t know any better think you are simply a pretty face, and those poor ol’ saps usually don’t escape with coin left in their purse.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Rogue Female Armour is a leather cuirass designed to protect the upper female chest and neck while providing a flattering and dangerous look. The chestplate, shaped to the female body, is made from sturdy full-grain leather and covers the chest, collarbone, and under the arms. The armour’s fit is highly adjustable thanks to the canvas straps crossing beneath the shoulder blades and around the small of the back.

The leather chestpiece is embellished with canvas accents against the full-grain leather. The collar can be removed to give a different look or to fit other Epic Armoury leather and metal armour pieces. With regular leather care, you can expect the Rogue Female Armour to last a long time. While designed to fit a rogue, the style will also match a broad range of worlds and characters, allowing you the freedom to create your own unique style.

HISTORY

• Historically looked down upon as a form of armour, as metal was preferred
• Finely crafted leather cuirasses were often worn by high-ranking officers and officials, including several Roman Emperors

As the world’s greatest and most famous monster hunter, you must look your best--and you must especially look impressive when you make your first impression!

You walk into the tavern following your apprentice’s long announcement that includes all fifteen of your glorious titles. Your trophies of the greatest monsters lines the walls, and people stand and offer to buy you your first mug of ale. And meanwhile your Ignis Pants are bright and as loud as the cheers from your adoring fans.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Black/Dark Red Pants Ignis are styled leggings with baggy, pleated thighs and vertically cut colours. Made from durable black cotton twill and red medium canvas lining, these pants are extra wide above the knees before fitting tighter around the lower legs. Included black leg wraps complete the look around the calves and shins, getting the best fit to your body and negating the need for tall boots or thick leg pads for your leg guards.

The pants are fitted with six belt loops and are stretchy at the waist, giving you the best fit. The pants also have deep pockets, as well as two small pockets on the front that fit a pair of your favourite throwing knives. Whether you are a traveling ranger or urban rogue, these pants are a great style of high quality.

HISTORY

• Similar to the Landsknecht Pants, worn by German Landsknecht mercenaries of the Renaissance period
• A great way to show off wealth with the excess use of fabric
• Design is similar to the Pluderhose, a 15th century design that fastened at the knee

"There it is again! What was that!?" whispered Trema.

"You're being paranoid," responded Durgon "ain't nothing here but us, this treasure, and this large statue."

The statue waited until they past before flexing its arms again.

You watch the caravan coming up the road from far off, counting at least two guards and a handful of merchants. Only one of them is on horseback, with the cart pulled by a sad pair of mules.

You feel confident in your new Rogue Arm, smirking as you signal to your fellows who lie in the shadows. There may not be much to steal, but you and your mates will take it all.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Dark Rogue Arm is a pair of vambraces featuring intimidating, pointed elbow couters. These vambraces protect the top of the forearm down to the wrist, secured by two comfortable leather straps. Rolled edges and small ridges around the rim further protect the elbow and arm, making it less likely that you would take a lucky strike from an enemy

The Rogue Arm is designed to match Epic Armoury’s Rogue Armour, but is fully usable with other Epic Armoury metal products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick galvanized mild steel and top-grain leather, this armour set is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Plate armour became more popular as firearm technology became more prevalent during the 13th century
• Historically designed with sculpted ridges and overlapping plates to provide reinforced protection and to deflect attacks on a chaotic battlefield

This pair of ears is perfect for Half Elves, Lord of the Rings elves (Legolas, Arwen, Elrond), Christmas Elves, Vampire, and Pixies

The seam lines can be blended with latex or hidden with the use of an ear cuff as shown in the picture.

Design: Paul and Michael Bielaczyc

These are handcrafted in our home studio, by the artists of Aradani, with attention to detail and quality. 

Aradani Studios was founded in 2002 by the Bielaczyc siblings, Michael, Paul and Sara. Their original intention was to work at the Tennessee Renaissance Festival as a part-time endeavor, a way for them to spend time together and have some fun selling artwork. So many people were interested in Paul's elven costume, particularly the pointed ears, that the they decided that they would add elf ears to the business. The following weekend, the Bielaczyc's began what Aradani Studios is best known for: hand-painting elf ears to blend in naturally with people's skin tone.

What began as a once a year activity for the brothers expanded in 2003 to include three Renaissance festivals and multiple conventions around the country. During this time, Aradani Studios carried a variety of other brands, but didn't manufacture any of their own products. However, with customers requesting custom prosthetics at every show, they decided it was time to expand.

Starting early in 2005, they began sculpting and producing their own line of prosthetics, by 2007, over 90% of the products they sold were created in house, made and manufactured in Nashville, Tennessee. Customers all over the world have enjoyed Aradani elf ears and masks.

Aside from latex prosthetics and jewelry, Michael and Paul Bielaczyc are acclaimed fantasy artists, winning awards all over the country and working for companies such as Dragonlance and Apex Digest. Their work can be seen in shows across the Southeast and various publications.

About Aradani's business practices:

We strive to bring the best quality costuming to our customers. We also try our best to have most things made in the United States (or if possible in fair trade commerce). 80% of our products are made in the U.S. , and 100% of the products we make are designed, built and manufactured here in the U.S.A. by workers who are paid a fair wage.

The leather Kendra cuirass is made by Italian designers Fucina del Drago.

This cuirass provides full torso coverage and is the basis of the Kendra set, an extraordinary women's armor.
It is ideally combined with the matching shoulders and mantle, and pairs fantastically with the Tenebra battle skirt.

The two-part corsage is very elaborate and consists of a front and back. With two buckles each, the chest and back part are connected to each other and attached with shoulder straps.
The D-rings on the front side are designed for the separately available tassets, but can also accommodate other accessories.
The shaped breast fits up to cup size "D" and is suitable for a wearer up to a size 14.

You think about dreaming it, we will take care of making it happen.

Our work briefly translates into this: starting from an idea, a sketch, a story and transforming those smoky lines into an object that can be used in the context (whether strictly historical or fantasy) for which it was designed.

Design therefore, at the base of each project, modulated on the budget of each client.

Realization, with a particular attention to detail and real use (not only display but rather mainly products made to be worn, used, lived).

Assistance, so that everything that has already been created does not suffer the damage of time or the wear and tear of years of use.

Black Dragon is our brand for the design and construction of weapons, armor and props oriented to LARP, Cosplay and film productions.

These are articles made of materials such as plastazote, evazote, resins and the like, used to give shape and substance to the wildest dreams of every designer or to reproduce objects not otherwise available because of fantasy.

It was born from the meeting between the Fucina del Drago and Black Forge, an artisan workshop that has been active for years in the LARP and Cosplay sector at national and international level which, in February 2020, joined forces in the common goal of expanding their work and their skills to offer them on a wider market also linked to film productions.

From this collaboration, projects related to TV series have been born that have benefited from years of experience and tests on materials, at the same time highlighting on the one hand the absolute reachable realism and on the other the possibility of truly shaping the imagination to give shape to things otherwise unattainable.

From the feedback obtained, the push that led us to strongly believe in this new project was born to the point of creating a brand dedicated only to this type of product.

A fundamental component of our work remains attentive listening to the customer and continuous contact in order to be certain not only of the achievement of the final result, but also and above all of full satisfaction: from this point of view it makes no difference that you are a live role player, a cosplayer or a film production company, we will still be able to accompany you from the preparatory sketch to the finished product in order to give you the most precise possible idea of ​​what we are making for you.

The Italian company Fucina del Drago is well-known for its beautiful leather products. Born from their workshops, Artemis is a very elaborately crafted torso armour for women. Hardened upper leather was shaped and rigidly fixed together using durable brass rivets in order to create the armour's chest and back portions. Refined embossings showing celtic knots embellish the edges and the center of the chest. On the sides, the armour's size may be adjusted by means of three cast brass buckles.

The leather is dyed evenly and was painted with a special solution to make the surface resemble antique patina.

The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. Unfortunately, a poor ol’ sap hasn’t paid his dues. You’re an understanding sort, but you can’t risk looking soft. Not on the street.

So, you decide to give the ol’ sap a visit. Removing your weapon from your Rogue Swordholder, you prepare your most intimidating look. You don’t expect this meeting to last very long. You’ll get your money today or the chap will be missing a few pints of blood. You’ll let him decide.

PLEASE NOTE: This corset is NOT designed for tightlacing.

The way the human children look at you, you would assume they have never seen an elf before. Granted, it isn’t often that you travel into cities. You prefer the tranquil sounds of the forest, away from the stench and chaos of busy human streets.

However, you have business with a certain wizard in town. So while your elven garb--Dark Elf Corset, tunic, and weapons--cause you to stand out amongst the crowd, you continue without raising a fuss. After all, they are only short-lived creatures. They don’t know any better than to stare.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Elf Corset is a top-grain leather underbust designed to protect the abdomen while making you look and feel dangerous on the battlefield. Adjustable by tightening the leather cords down the spine and along the sides, this corset design allows for a perfect fit. The stitching around the edges and the embellished stiff leather strengthen this corset’s structural stability and slim the wearer’s appearance, so with regular leather care you can expect this Dark Elf Corset to have a long lifetime. Use this Dark Elf Corset to create an intimidating statement or add some interest to your kit.
