Description[]

Necromancer Vabbian armor is an elite armor art for necromancers, available in the Nightfall campaign.

It is the most expensive elite armor, other than Obsidian armor, due to the high prices of rubies and sapphires.

The male and female versions of this armor look quite different, but both accurately reflect their origins from the wealthy and refined province of Vabbi.

The female set is most notable for the large skirt, with layers of black and colorable linen on top of fluffy black gauze. The rest of the armor features loose feathery protrusions on the arms and shoulders, coupled with flowing colorable designs inlaid in the mostly-black chest-piece, belt and boots, as well as plenty of amber jewels all around.

The male armor is most recognized for the intricately-detailed oversized collar and matching loose fabric on the sleeves and legs. The body armor is mostly black, form-fitting leather with colorable flowing designs.

The facial scar pattern appears only on the forehead and the left cheek, featuring large crescent moon shapes of white paint. The paint is light enough to blend invisibly with paler skintones, and it will only change color when dyed green or black. Dyeing it any other color will ever-so-slightly change the shade on edges of the design.

Trivia[]

The original concept art of the female armor set by Jason Juan shows a scar pattern that looks very much like the female Istani scar pattern. The concept art can be found here.
