When they got back to the smithy, the dwarven smith was standing proudly next to his clerk at her desk.

The work order’s all done, then, Wayne thought. It felt a bit too quick for a labor-intensive, precision job that involved shaping and working literal metal, but he assumed that the existence of crafting related skills probably helped speed that up a fair bit.

The smith flashed them a toothy smile, then nodded with his chin toward the back room.

The trio followed the smith back into his workshop, where two sets of armor awaited them. The first was an imposing suit of gleaming plate armor. Beside it, the second set, crafted from an intricate weave of small rectangular platelets—lamellar armor. It was easy to assume that the full-plate was intended for Gil, and the lamellar set, Wayne.

They got to fitting right away. The armor were perfect fits, adjusted with precision by the master smith using a series of belts and buckles.

Gil’s plate armor was thinner than it’d appeared. Each piece was hammered into shape to maximize structural integrity and resilience, and the aesthetics of it wasn’t entirely unlike fluted armor. Despite its imposing appearance, it wasn’t as heavy as it seemed—allowing STR- and VIT-heavy Gil to wear it with ease. Its defense was on a different level entirely. The iron sword Wayne had been using couldn’t even leave a scratch.

Wayne’s armor, on the other hand, looked lighter than it actually was. The individual metal platelets were small, but their sheer number added up to considerable weight. The leather components weren’t exactly light either. But that just meant it was durable. Against slashing or piercing attacks, it could probably hold its own just as well as Gil’s full plate. The key difference was that Wayne’s set had intentional gaps at the armpits, crotch, knees, and elbows to allow for mobility. Those gaps would require extra awareness on his part, but as long as he stayed mindful, the powered-up Wayne should be able to dodge any precisely aimed attacks with ease.

“This is terrific,” Gil muttered.

“Yeah,” Wayne agreed.

The two stood motionless as the smith made the final adjustments of the armor on their bodies, appreciating the master work done by with master materials made by a master smith.

“Oi! Don’t be leavin’ these behind now!” the smith suddenly bellowed. He gestured with his thumb toward the armaments on the nearby workshop table.

There were two swords and a shield. The smaller one was a broadsword—a one-handed weapon, ideal for use alongside a shield, clearly meant for Gil. The other was a longsword. Agile enough to be wielded in one hand, but with a long enough grip for two-handing if one so wished, it was the kind of weapon that could be called either a longsword or bastard sword, depending on who one asked.

Gil’s shield could be described as a scutum—a convex, oblong, full-body shield. Real life versions had been made with wood and leather; a full-metal shield would have been impossibly heavy. But in-game mercenaries and knights with high STR and VIT could wield them just fine.
