This is the armour worn by the Norse king Beowulf before he set out into the Chaos Wastes, leaving it to his son. The Armour of Beowulf is a dark crafted chainmail coat with built-in arm and shoulder guards forged upon a fire of dragon bones by Hagmar Wyrmschlager. It is said to mirror the hardness of dragon’s scales. The armour flickers with blue flames. The flames seem to burn more intensely as its user is wounded in battle, closing any wounds, or bleeds in matter of seconds. One sage tells that after a terrible battle with another tribe, Beowulf was pierced by a huge spear thrown by the enemy King. Despite his injury, he came stumbling through the battlefield, cut down the enemy general who had wounded him, and was completely healed of his wound within a few hours. As he fought on in later years, he was always known as being monstrously difficult to harm due to the armour that he wore.
