Clothing & Armour
It encompasses a wide array of forms, including the chainmail and plate armour of ancient warriors, the natural defences of creatures such as exoskeletons and thick hides, and the advanced hard armours crafted from cutting-edge materials like carbon fibre, ceramic and alien polymers.
Armour functions primarily to shield the wearer from harm, absorbing impacts and preventing direct damage to the body. In combat scenarios, the effectiveness of armour is tested against the severity of incoming attacks, with critical hits posing a significant threat to its protective capability. Over the ages, the evolution of armour has mirrored the advancement of offensive weaponry, constantly adapting to provide the best defence against new threats, ensuring the wearer's survival in the face of ever-more lethal combat technologies.
