Headband of Strength

His muscles bulged as he heaved his axe across the room, pinning the barkeep against the wall. The man was unhurt, but he was as white as a sheet from fear. "More ale", shouted the barbarian, "and more food!". The barkeep had no choice but to obey, as the huge man had scared away all his other customers. With a satisfied grunt, Horgar sat down and loosened his leather headband. He felt his strength fade to normal levels. As it did, he smelled the foaming ale and the lightly roasted and spiced potatoes the barkeep was bringing. Indeed, it was good to be the strongest.

Epic Armoury's Headband of Strength takes its cues from the Swords & Sorcery films of the past. This 5 mm thick leather headband has been reinforced with metal places that have been riveted in place. Four more decorative rivets cover the nose band. This creates a nose and head guard that is light, protective, and decorative at the same time. The thick leather and the straps around the back allow for a great range of hits and heads.

NO GUTS NO GLORY!

The Barbarian hordes were no strangers to use fear as a weapon, and the more intimidating you looked when engaging in battle, the better. Replicate that wild and savage look, doing the Barbarian style proud with Epic Armoury's Gut Plate. The Gut Plate features plating made from three ridged steel plates--or lames--overlaying one another and a central plate to provide laminate protection of the gut. The vegetable tanned leather belt is made from two smaller, embossed leather belts slipped through a wide brace, providing a secure fit that will remain fixed over your costume. Fasten the belt by securing its two belt tongues, locked in place by two square brass belt buckles and show off an appearance that is worthy not only of barbarians, but of all Nomadic Horse Warriors, Vikings or Norsemen who might want a good piece of armour to protect their soft spot, when they go out pillaging and raiding.

HISTORY

• Some Barbarian tribes were known for showing up naked on the battlefield to intimidate their enemies

They say "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown". And given the weight of the bloody things, we can understand why. How you could be assassinated when you could simply take one of these off and bludgeon someone to death boggles us.

A dainty crown upon thy head

Your prey is almost within range, tentative as she catches a whiff of something in the air. You have covered yourself in the dirt of the forest and smell more like pine than person, but the deer still seems uncertain.

She steps forward and you pull back the string on your loaded bow, peering down at her from beneath the leather of your Elven Head Band. This deer will feed you for the rest of the week, so you are careful as you take aim. You mustn’t miss your target if you are to eat.

With a sharp ‘thwap!’ your arrow hits its mark, clean and perfect. A painless end to a noble creature...and your dinner.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Elven Head Band is a slim decorative piece of head armour with a distinct elven feel. The headband is made from vegetable-tanned leather and fitted with an adjustable leather brace at the back. At the forehead, the headband is decorated with a flat leaf-shaped leather patch that rises over the forehead and stretches down to cover the bridge of the nose. At the temples it is fitted with cheek-pads closely covering the cheek and chin-bones, hovering a few centimetres before the mouth.

The Elven Head Band is clearly elven in style, but is compatible with other Epic Armoury leather products, allowing almost any character to round off their look with this stylish accessory.

One size fits all.
