Sentinel Spear

You stand watch from the tower, keeping your guard post even when all appears still and quiet. While the hour is late and it is unlikely that the enemy will attack tonight, it is your duty to keep the camp safe. At the first sign of danger, you are to sound the alarm.

Leaning on your Sentinel Spear, you stifle an exhausted yawn. You are prepared to wait and to watch for hours, but that does not make you miss your bed any less. Some coffee would be much appreciated.

The pole is wrapped in soft split-leather to ensure a firm and comfortable grip, and ends with a coreless pommel for safe combat.

You stand at attention outside the gates of your enemy’s fortress, standing alongside other footmen. Inside, their people are filled with terror, deafened by your army’s trumpets and noise. Arrows rain down and you and your fellow soldiers form a barrier with your enormous Footman Tower Shields.

There is nothing that can stop you. The design of your shield allows you to stand in close formation, advancing on their defenders and dispatching them quickly.

This bestselling Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone is used for maintenance of Live Action Role Playing foam weapons and equipment covered with latex and/or varnish.

Directions for use:

Latex equipment must be coated with a thin layer of silicone at all times. This prevents the surfaces from drying out, and will prolong the lifespan of your latex equipment. Always check your latex equipment before and after each use. Spray the silicone directly onto your latex product and work it into the entire surface (avoiding leather handles) either with a piece of cloth or using a flat hand. If necessary, wipe off any excess with a dry cotton cloth. Always store your latex equipment in a dry and dark place.

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.

Your Naginata was handed to you by your master, many years ago. It was a bittersweet moment for you, because while it meant you overcome all obstacles in your training, it also meant it was time to set out on your own.

You find the soft leather along the handle comforting, your hand finding its usual well-worn grip. You look beyond the campfire where a fresh fish now cooks, sizzling in the heat, looking to the flickering shadows along the treeline. You have the sense that tonight you and your spear may once again be tested as you hear the unmistakable snap of a twig, your grip tightening in anticipation.

As you grip your military-issued Ancient Spear, preparing alongside your fellow soldiers to go into battle, you hope that your training will continue to serve you well. At the very least, you have confidence in the sharpness of your weapon.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Ancient Spear is a long, leaf-shaped Roman spear perfect for your next LARP character. The spear is detailed with a lot of personality, including a spearhead featuring a golden fuller. These little details continue down the pole with brass-coloured bands and imitations of dark red leather bindings, giving way to a fine wooden texture painted to look like polished black wood.

The obvious choice with this weapon is the Elliptical Shield, but this spear is neutral enough to be used with almost any combination of Epic Armoury equipment that best fits your character. Made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass pipe and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

Your elven ears hear the rustle of footsteps behind you. A smile crosses your delicate lips as you realize a stranger is attempting to sneak up on someone as lithe and alert as you. You are the kindred of the immortals, having honed your skills for hundreds of years. No normal mortal being can surprise you.

”Come out of hiding,” you call over your shoulder. “I know you are there.”

Again your elven ears pick up the faintest noise, and as you hear the ‘thwap!’ of an archer’s bow, you spin and deflect the incoming arrow with your Lorian Glaive. It appears some lesser creature is about to receive an important lesson about attacking an elf as powerful as you.

DETAILS

The haft is 95 cm long and wrapped in soft brown split-leather for a secure and comfortable grip.

The Lorian Glaive is designed to pair with Epic Armoury’s other Elven Universe weaponry and costuming, but can be mixed and matched to suit your needs. 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 when crafting your kit.

His ego had pushed him to challenge his master but it was his determination that kept him standing. To reach the heights he had set for himself, he would have to go through much more difficult tests. Tightening his fingers around the handle of his spear, he leapt; this strike will be the one to make him victorious!
