| - | When Cirius' eldest son was pulled into the militia and trained for war against the Dakarian's enemies, he crafted for him a suit of reinforced leather armor that would be the envy of even the nobles leading him. The leather was dyed a dark forest green and sewn with silver thread. At critical points in the armor, Cirius sewn in heavy dwarven steel plates to protect his son in battle. Finally, he used several panels and laces to increase flexibility while still offering excellent protection. | + | When Cirius' eldest son was pulled into the militia and trained for war against the Dakarian's enemies, he crafted for him a suit of reinforced leather armor that would be the envy of even the nobles leading him.

| While there is no doubt his son's armor was very effective against all manner of weapons. His son was killed in battle and the body and armor never recovered — at least that is what he was told. The true reality will never be known, but when Lord Straus' son returned from the war he was wearing the armor Cirius made for his son. With the insult to the memory of his son (if not outright murder), Cirius lost all heart in creating the fine amours that set his reputation. Even when Lord Straus locked him in the dungeon, Cirius slowly died rather than make a single new piece of armor. | While there is no doubt his son's armor was very effective against all manner of weapons.

| - | This shield gained is renown during the Snake wars on the southern island of Togenku during the [[atlas:Irill#Second Irillian Empire]]. The 15th Legion under the command of [[wp>Centurian]] Praxs was sent to the island to secure it and construct a port from which Irillian warships could harass the [[creatures:elf|Elven]] fleet. Over one hundred and twenty men landed on the island's shores and when the ship returned only two months later, only fifteen were alive — among them Praxs. The Irillians never did return and none of the soldiers that survived would ever speak of what befell the rest of the soldiers — only that the jungle was alive. | + | This shield gained is renown during the Snake wars on the southern island of Togenku during the [[atlas:Irillian Empire]].
