Description

Protecting the forearms and fingers is the primary purpose of gauntlets. The loss of a hand will cripple a warrior and the loss of fingers will cripple an archer. Offering significantly more protection than light armor, this medium armor incorporates many elements - metal rivets, articulated leather, and fur-trimmed cloth to balance protection and agility. This middle of the road approach brings compromises of its own because this armor is neither as strong as heavy armor, nor as flexible as light armor. This riveted armor bears no cultural markings or identifiers of any type.
