Racial motifs 15 : Dwemer

Original media : TES Online By Raynor Vanos Kireth says I should write down what I've learned about Dwemer artisans and the styles and motifs of their lost civilization. Chest pieces All Dwarven chest armor consists of metal plates of various sizes affixed to a leather cuirass -thin, flexible leather with a few small plates in the case of light armor, the leather becoming thicker and the plates larger and more numerous as the armor gets heavier. The plates are typically geometric in shape and ornamentation. Shoulders Dwarven shoulder pauldrons were usually made of thick and inflexible metal, mounted on cops of heavy "leather". The pauldrons of heavier armor sometimes sported metal keels echoing the crests seen atop their helmets. Staves Even the most elaborate Dwarven staff has a utilitarian look about it, as if it was going to be used with paddle to draw a loaf of bread from an oven. The haft is made of some close-grained substance that looks like wood but is not, circled with ring of Dwarven metal. The finials are circular or fan-shaped, and usually modest in size. ◄ Racial motifs 14 : The Daedric ▲ Racials motifs
