Looking like a noble is all about the flair. You can own an entire city, but without the proper attire no one would be the wiser.

You mark your status with the finest cape in town. It is soft to the touch with a fine embroidered trim that took your personal seamstress weeks to create. The Aramis Cape sits so perfectly upon your perfectly tailored shirts, you may very well order two or three more...because you obviously can’t be seen wearing the same color two days in a row.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Black Cape Aramis is a hip-length caplet with a high collar and decorative cord fastening. The design is meant to offer a top layer of glamour that can be worn over one or both shoulders. Made from black cotton and cut to include extra billowing fabric, this cape is embellished with a detailed gold and black trim. Its fine appearance makes for a great accessory for a variety of Renaissance or fantasy costumes, especially nobility or musketeers.

The Cape Aramis is an elegant cut with three slits for the arms to slide through depending on how it is worn. Secure the cape around the neck or across the chest by tying the long satin cord.

HISTORY

• This style of cape was particularly popular during the Elisabethan period in Europe
• Considered to be a form of fencing cape, freeing the hand to use a rapier

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 Double Hanger kept your swords safe! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab a hilt…A bandit notices and takes your swords and your Double Hanger for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

A scarlet blur of swagger and panache, the dashing swashbuckler jumped from the balcony, landing on the shoulder of the statue of her Excellence the Empress herself, a good fifteen feet above the ground. Around the monument, palace courtiers and festive diplomats were laughing and clapping at the display of skill, convinced they just witnessed the surprise show of an impromptu acrobat. They quickly realized it wasn't exactly a planned event when a group of ironclad imperial guards reached the balcony, huffing and puffing under their plate armour. As they tried to strike the crimson outlaw with their halberds, it became clear this sword-bearing newcomer was some sort of intruder. Not losing a second, the nimble outlaw kissed goodbye to the armed guard before jumping from the statue's shoulder, using the stone Empress exaggerated dress rump as a ramp before landing with a pirouette in the middle of the assembly.

Up on the balcony, the guards were pushed aside by a red-faced and outraged Empress, dishevelled as she just got out of bed. She screamed in anger and injured ego: ''How dare you?! No one refuses the Empress! Arrest this ungrateful scoundrel!'' She ordered, spurring a few prideful nobles to draw their rapier and attempt to stop the nimble fleeing fencer. Apologizing in advance, the swashbuckler freed a long fencing dagger and a matching arming sword, before methodically destroying both the nobles' ego and their fancy clothes as they bit the dust, uninjured but out of commission. With a taunting reverence, the agile duellist turned toward the Empress and screamed, a giggle in the voice; ''I am quite sorry my dear, but I prefer to go with no strings attached. I am sure you will find another pretty face to join your so-called musketeers''. And with a stunning smile, the adventurous insolent escaped through the gardens, leaving the Empress dealing with a small court scandal on top of her bruised pride.

This fancy fantasy sword is inspired by Renaissance aesthetics and a perfect weapon for a duellist, fencer, battle bard, noble warrior, or swashbuckler in LARP. With a complex hilt that protects the fingers in combat, this foam weapon allows a more aggressive combat style for true musketeer prowess.

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.

Witchers are mutants, men subjected to gruelling training and flesh-altering experiments that prepare them for one purpose: to kill monsters. Ciri is Geralt's protege and apprentice, learning the Witchers' superhuman reflexes, strength and fighting skills after surviving the loss of everything she's ever known.

Crafted and designed from original in-game assets, this foam replica is soft enough to ensure safe usage in mock combat, but firm enough for cosplay and prop usage.

In the open world of Wild Hunt, you chart your own path to adventure. You play as a bounty hunter, a man of the road. You set your own goals and choose your own destinations. Go after the bounty on the head of a nasty monster pestering a village or help a scheming noble who needs a dirty job done — no matter what style of epic questing you crave, The Witcher will provide it. Now you can also wield our foam replicas and train your fighting techniques to slay magical beasts.

DETAILS

The Blocking Dagger is made for those who fight with speed, not force. With off-hand fighting in mind, this 55 cm dagger gives you the real leverage when you find yourself up close. From parrying sword blows to closing the distance, or pushing opponents in close range, this is the kind of weapon that lets you stay sharp, in control, and one step ahead of your adversary.

This dagger has Epic Armoury's Vanguard construction, so you get a soft PU foam blade combined with an abusive PU foam hilt. It's tough, safe, and designed to handle brutal abuse. What makes it stand out, though, is the additional stiffness at its core. That added stiffness gives you more control while parrying, better feedback in the hand, and a bit of added bite while delivering or deflection blows. If you’re into off-hand blocking or technical fighting styles, you’ll feel the difference right away.
