Flexible but sturdy plates layered together form this traditional armor worn by lashunta cavalry on Castrovel. In times past, a shotalashu cavalry member forged their armor from their mount's shed skin, or more rarely, the skin of a fallen mount, to honor them in future battles. Synthetic imitations are fashionable on some parts of Castrovel.
