Unique Items
« on: February 04, 2004, 11:35:48 am »
Long ago a city of men ruled by King Brohma was surrounded by unsearched land.  Brohma was a greedy king with a strong desire to expand the city\'s boarders at any cost.  One day while exploring with his troops, Brohma approached a cave entrance.  He sent 3 men inside.  They ran out speaking loudly, almost in disbelief of the diamonds they saw within the cave.  Brohma\'s men marched inside, and met a group of large cobras seemingly guarding the diamonds.  When the men attempted to take the diamonds without disturbing the deadly serpants, they were attacked.  The cobras only attacked when the men picked up the diamonds.  Brohma needed to end this disturbance, so he ordered all of the cobras killed.  Some of the troops were slain by the cobras\' lethal venom, but most survived and gathered the diamonds along with King Brohma.
     
The King did not realize he had just found and stolen the treasure of the serpant goddess Camika.  Camika, enraged with the king\'s actions, shed her scales and crafted them into an armor of human form.  She hid herself within her armor, and assassinated the king when he entered the city.  She returned her treasure to its original resting place.  And added her newly crafted armor to the treasure.  She also raised those who died while gathering the treasure, and assigned them the duty of guarding it forever.
     
Those who had seen The darkness in the shape of a human that had slain the king said that it was encased in a robe so strong, it was invincible to any weapon lacking elemental damage.  And so formed the Legend of the Forbidden Scales, crafted by the goddess Camika, that absorb all physical damage.  The Forbidden Scales would be the perfect light armor for an assassin if they really existed...

Here is the helm of the armor, the rest will come soon!

It is not a head, it is a helm made from the scales and teeth of the goddess with a precious gem for the eye.  It is worn like so:

very nice.
Only thing that bugs me: You need some sort of eye protection. Otherwise the teeth might do nasty things to them. ;)

Ok, i get it now. Yeah, those teeth look dangerous. I also hope that the scales are ultra-strong or something.

Sorry for the side pic on the model (I didn\'t mean to cause so much commotion in the thread).  the teeth span is actually pretty wide.  They appear to be in front of the eyes in that side model, when really they are just outside the cheekbones.

Here\'s the cloak and the chest armor that goes with the set.
