The Athena line, from Nemesis Workshops, is a mass produced line of high quality LARP weapons.

Athena is a new thermoforming manufacturing process that we have developed in order to offer high quality products at the cutting edge of technology. 

Thanks to this new process, Nemesis has taken the quality of their products to a higher level. Safer due to reinforced tips, durable due to quality materials and foam fusion during thermoforming, incredible balance due to the weighting system in the handles, flawless blades due to high precision molds, and daggers ready to parry due to a more robust fiberglass rod.

As you infiltrate the city, you pass by the gates completely unnoticed in your Altair Vest. Had the guards known your intentions, you’d be hunted as a killer. Thankfully today no one knows that you have such a mission.

You find your target as he enters his hideout, two of his guards at his side. There might be a way to get inside without detection--and that’s when you spot the open window on the third floor. That won’t be too difficult to reach. Not for a skilled assassin such as you.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Vest Altair is a sleeveless shirt designed for the most skilled rogues. Reaching from the shoulders to the knees and made from soft, dyed cotton, this tunic can be a costume all by itself--or work as a layer in a more complicated design. Move around crowded cities easily thanks to an A-cut at the front and back hem, while hiding your identity with the attached large hood. Designed to be tight fitting and sleek, the tunic features many sharp lines and angles to give you a slim and dangerous appearance.

When you need to soar like an eagle, or become a blade in the crowd, the ancient Altair vest is perfect for your subtle needs. Secure the Vest Altair using five straps through double brass D-rings along the front for a comfortable fit.

INSPIRATION

• Style is inspired by the Assassin’s Creed video game series’ main characters
• Designed to fit multiple time periods when paired with other products
• Historically worn by a great variety of people and cultures--with many different types of cuts!
• The name derives from the Latin tunica, the basic garment worn by both men and women in Ancient Rome
• Generally considered a male garment and was still worn in Norway until the 17th century

The underdark is your domain. In the pitch blackness, the smell of damp earth all around, you wait with your raiding party. When night falls on the lands above, you will emerge.

The sun-lovers have come to fear you and the silence in which you strike. With your leather gear and Assassin Helmet, you are able to maneuver in the shadows until your target is exactly where you want him. You are formidable. You are the assassin.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Assassin Helmet is an enclosed helmet made from finely crafted, full-grain leather. Its full face-mask has broad eye-holes and a shaped pointed nose to provide excellent vision while still protecting the face with its stiff, durable structure.

Above the eyes, the face-plate is fitted with overlapping leather bands and a hexagonal patch between the eyebrows. These overlapping plates cover the top of the head and form a distinctive leather Mohawk and elongated skull appearance. The helmet fits over the head and is secured with a corded leather brace along the neck hairline.

The Assassin Helmet is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury leathers and metals, allowing freedom to customize your character's looks.

INSPIRATION

• Dark elves were first mentioned in Norse mythology as the “Dökkálfar” or “Svartálfar” written in the Prose Edda in the 13th century
• J.R.R. Tolkien mentions dark elves, the “Moriquendi” in The Silmarillion
• Have also been referred to as “Drow” in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, made famous by R.A. Salvatore’s The Dark Elf Trilogy.

"He with a short knife must try, try again."

~Vapnfirðinga Saga, c.7

This means keep stabbing the bastards until they go down.

IT ALWAYS PAYS TO HAVE A SPARE WEAPON

Epic Armoury’s Seax knife is a very utilitarian knife, with a flat single edged, 38 CM blade ending in a very sharp tip. It has no cross-guard, but does have a fine coreless pommel, that has a very form fitting hand grip that is very akin to modern kitchen knives. The, relatively, simple design of the Seax makes it a weapon that is perfect as secondary for any number of LARP characters, simple but effective without drawing much attention to itself. Incidentally, it also lets the Seax live up to its name, which is the old English word for knife. Made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want.

HISTORY

• Heavily Inspired by knife and weapon designs from old anglo-saxon ideas and archeological findings
• Seax was a blanket term to describe knives, both as tools and weapons, from the early middle ages
• Typically seaxs were double bladed, but single bladed designs did exist and it would be some of the most common designs that would carry the designation Seax.

Winning is gained through treachery and invites treachery against those who gain it!

The Shadow Armor Gorget & Pauldron Set is for those who spend their days defending against the daggers that would find their backs. This armor set comprises two hard leather pauldrons and a leather gorget, ideal for fantasy-based Larpers who crave battle. The jagged-edged pauldrons look similar to dragon scales and had adjustable shoulder pads that can stretch to fit most elite warriors. To put on the shoulder armor, simply slip your head through the gorget, and you are ready for combat. You can also attach the pauldron set to your plate armor or cuirass for a dramatic effect!

The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed!

The black Leather Shadow Cuirass Torso Armor is a beautifully crafted cuirass designed to protect you in Larp combat. Even though death usually comes from the front, this thick leather armor will protect your chest and back, resting on your hips to allow you a full range of movement in battle. A series of straps and buckles allow the Drow warrior to don the armor quickly and perfectly adjusting it to your shape. This fantasy armor is made from stitched leather plates and is designed to endure the harshest environments in the Underworld!

Devious, coward, dishonourable, murderer... I heard a thousand insults, all attacking my worth, my morality, putting judgment on my skills, even doubting the status of my soul. I don't know if I need to cry or laugh. The peek of hypocrisy is to see what these so-called paragons of honour and decency would rather do instead. These high lords and noble knights that dare shame me are the worst of all. They don't hesitate to send hundreds of brave to their death in futile wars or to order whole villages to be burned and pillaged for their sake. What is worth so much death and suffering? Glory sounds like an empty excuse if you ask me. It would be so much simpler to solve these quarrels my way. It needs little more than patience, a sharp dagger, and a good hand to wield it. Whatever they say, I sleep very well at night. Can they say the same?

This curved dagger will be favoured by shady rogues or stealthy assassins alike. This latex blade is perfect for dark elf characters, ruthless thieves, and other deadly villains in LARP. Its curved blade and black finish can also make it a great weapon for fantasy characters such as shadow dancers and evil cultists.

As with all of Athena products, this model includes:

• A soft and robust reinforced point designed for the estoc;
• A solid structure ready to parry
• A counterweight in the handle for unparalleled maneuverability;
• A 2 year warranty 
• LATEX-FREE and waterproof varnish
• Safe foam fake weapon designed for LARP combat, cosplay, theater and film.

They say keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but you prefer to keep your weapons closer still. While your trusty sword and shield have served you in countless battles, you believe in always having a backup.

Your dagger, encased in a Dagger Scabbard, always hangs at your belt. It waits to be used in that desperate moment where an enemy is above, your sword is on the ground, and you don’t have time to reach it. It’s not happened to you yet, but you’ve seen the scene played out on the battlefield before and you will not be caught unawares.

• Protected the sword’s sharpened edge from becoming dull or accidentally harming the wearer

Only the most proficient of Assassins were issued with a single knife holder for their belts. The display of only a single one meant they were truly to be feared because they only needed one.

Your throwing knife is held safely in the Throwing Knives Holder at your belt, keeping it handy while your hands are busy picking a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.

With a satisfying ‘click!’ the lock comes undone and you pry the chest open to reveal--oh, yes! That will do nicely. You pocket what looks to be a sizeable purse and a few interesting looking weapons, before carefully replacing the lock and sneaking out of the tent undetected.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Throwing Knives Holder 1 is a leather frog that keeps your throwing knife handy when the going gets rough. Designed to hang from any Epic Armoury belt or baldric, this holder is handmade, open at both ends, and will accommodate a throwing knife up to 4 cm in diameter.

This sheath is perfect for holding smaller knifes and daggers. Simple and elegant: the Dagger Holder is an excellent asset.

As an Adventurer, you never know who you might be working for or what beast you’ll be sent to dispatch next. There’s only one thing for certain: if there’s enough money or glory to be had, you’re the right person for the job.

Admittedly, when the farmer came running into town claiming his crops had been torched, you hadn’t anticipated a trap. By the time you realized that the farmer was luring you into a bandit ambush, they already had you captured. At least your Dagger Holder kept your dagger safe! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab the hilt…A bandit notices and takes your dagger and your Dagger Holder for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dagger Holder is a leather hoop frog designed to keep your dagger handy and out of sight at all times.

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 dagger from your Full Scabbard, 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.
