Someone might say you are a cruel person. The truth is that you are not cruel, but you are certainly not a hero either. The Battle of Delle is not for your homeland or your own people, but the pay is good and the fighting is even better.

Life as a mercenary has made you a hardened and effective warrior, and while some call it "luck" when your enemy's blade slips from your Epic Dark Barbuta, you call it strategy. After all, your enemy's heart is now an open target.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury's Epic Dark Barbuta is a style of helmet inspired by 15th century Italian soldiers. Designed to protect the head during combat, the Barbuta is both stylish and functional. The helmet covers the head, neck, and most of the face, while still providing clear vision through the helmet's Y-shaped visor, which has been reinforced with rolled steel and additional rivets. Enjoy this sleek, easy-to-wear design, which demands attention on the battlefield with details like the curved shield that runs from the forehead to the neck.

The Barbuta is designed to be worn with Renaissance style clothing, but also has a high fantasy feel to it. It has been popularized in modern culture as a preferred headgear of the High Elves.

Secure the Barbuta by adjusting the leather strap under the chin, keeping the helmet in place. Made from 1mm thick mild steel and top grain leather straps and fittings, this piece of armour is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with the usual care of leather and metal armour.

Available in sizes M and L
