The Crimson Talon
The ancient ruins of Velkarth loomed under the silver moonlight, their shattered arches and ivy-covered stones casting long, eerie shadows. Keirdan Morningstar, a seasoned veteran of the Crimson Talons, moved through the desolation like a wraith, his footfalls silent on the mossy ground. His target, a traitorous noble, had sought refuge in the dilapidated city's crumbled heart. Scaling a fractured column, Keirdan slipped into the broken sanctum, blades gleaming faintly at his sides. The air carried the scent of damp stone and lingering betrayal. Keirdan's presence was a whisper in the dark, his purpose cold and unyielding—justice, delivered from the shadows. He crouched in the shadows, watching the noble pace near a flickering brazier, muttering desperate prayers.
Silent as the wind, Keirdan nocked an arrow, the bowstring drawing taut in his steady hands. The faint creak of tension made the noble freeze, his eyes darting wildly into the darkness. “Who’s there?” he barked, voice trembling. Keirdan stepped forward just enough for the noble to see the faint glint of the arrowhead aimed at his heart. Before the noble could react, the arrow flew, striking true. The noble crumpled to the cold floor without a sound, the brazier’s light flickering over lifeless eyes. Keirdan retrieved his arrow and melted back into the shadows, the ruins swallowing him whole. One less corrupt noble in the world isn't enough, but it's one hell of a start...
We can't thank our wonderful customer Austin Houk enough for creating these stunning photos with our Assassin's Armor. He has created an inspiring universe and a mood like no other, showcasing his assassin persona and our armor's noble, dark style.
The set highlights our Assassin's Armor and its various hand-molded and hand-dyed leather parts. The torso, hood and asymmetrical pauldrons are particularly striking. Several practical pieces also catch the eye, such as the Alchemist's Belt, the supple leather cape and, in some pictures, our matching bracers. Aluminum chainmail and an elegant fabric cowl contrast the armor, and several accessories complete the costume: Mytholon bracers and greaves, Thief gloves and several LARP weapons.
