Chaos Armour

Chaos Armour is an ornate suit of plate worn by favoured Northman warriors. They do not hail from the smithies of mortal men, for some are twisted antiquities gifted to the Norse and Kurgan tribes by the gods and passed on from father to son through the generations. Many, however, hail from the monstrous forges of the Chaos Dwarfs of the Dark Lands. Master Daemonsmiths all, it is said that the Sons of Hashut bind a portion a daemonic creature's soul to every set of Chaos Armour.

Nigh impenetrable and all enclosing, Chaos Plate is rare and highly prized amongst the Norsemen and Kurgans, and worn only by the chieftains and finest warriors of the tribes. The Norse and Kurgans trade with the Chaos Dwarfs to obtain these suits; bartering with the Dwarfs for amenities which are both rare and sorely needed to sustain their society. The northerners thus trade meat, furs, warpstone, iron, precious gems and, most coveted by the Chaos Dwarfs, slaves in order to purchase these masterfully crafted sets of hellish armour.
