Elven Trophy Mask

When night falls on the lands, you will emerge from the underdark. The sun-loving elves have come to fear you and the silence in which you strike. The fear is not unfounded, for they are your intended prey.

Along with your fellow soldiers, you sneak through the shadows when you find the elven camp. They don’t stand a chance against your superior weapons, and you soon leave with a new Elven Trophy Mask in your pack.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Elven Trophy Mask is a face mask designed to look like the torn away face of an elf. Hide your face behind the stolen one of a defeated enemy, a trophy kept to prove your warrior’s skill and victory over the forest folk. Made from 100% natural latex, this mask covers the whole face with roomy holes around the eyes, nostrils, and mouth for comfort.

The face itself is narrow with a fine nose and pronounced eyebrows. Wrinkles and jagged edges give it the realistic appearance of having been torn away from the face of the victim. The complexion is a sickly yellow skin tone.

Secure the mask to your face using the adjustable leather cords. Customize the mask’s appearance with Epic Effects Water-Based Makeup.

HISTORY

• Similar in use to the historical practice of human trophy collecting
• Remains of the deceased were collected to demonstrate dominance or to commemorate
• Elves were originally a creation of Germanic mythology and folklore

Ever a practical people, their blacksmiths and armourers made sure their elven blades were available in a range of sizes to suit any task.

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.”

As you hear the ‘thwap!’ of an archer’s bow, you spin and dodge the incoming arrow, unsheathing your Elven Blade in one fluid motion. The fight has begun.

DETAILS

This Epic Armoury Elven Blade is a lithe and elegant medium-length blade with an elven design. The blade has a single-edge with a straight short edge, adding to the clear and recognizable style of the weapon. While it has no cross-guard, the long oval-shaped handle is wrapped in split-leather in order to give the most comfort and grip.

Elven Blades are elegant in style and can be used across various game worlds, but are designed to be fully compatible with Epic Armoury's other elven products, such as the Elven Dagger. Made from durable closed cell foam around a solid 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.
