Powers[]

Each item in all of the sets bore a specific enchantment that boosted the wearer's physical power, speed, ability to deflect enemy blows, gave them advantage in combat, and enhanced their ability to whelm a powerful and well-aimed or lucky attacks. Each specialized set's items' magics were in synch, granting the wearer even greater boons when all items were equipped by a single creature. When wearing at least three items from each of the sets, the wearer received even greater physical power, and their speed of movement was significantly boosted.^[1]

History[]

In the late 15^th century DR, a number of warborn armor sets began circulating among the adventuring community of Neverwinter, following their joint assault on the Fangbreaker Island in the Frozenfar and the defeat of Drufi, the Herald of Winter. These sets were also sold by the wealthy traders of the Ten-Towns.^[1]
