A description of what Syrabanic Marine chests should look like

Frog-metal, or Syrabane's Steel, is a highly coveted rarity to those of us alive today. But this was not always the case. The famed buoyant metal is an astounding prize for mariners around Amenos. The supply is woefully limited and not exactly something one can just whip up. So, I will describe these designs how they were, before Syrabane's metal was lost to the sea. When stalwart sea knights made use of these weapons and armor, they did so unafraid of the waves that rocked the decks beneath their feet. These knights of the unfathomable depths are worthy of study, as are their arms.

I located this record of one such knight who took the time to painstakingly describe the sheer magnificence of his equipment. I hope you enjoy his account as much as I, dear reader.

CHESTS
While our armor varies greatly within our ranks, our chest pieces usually have two things in common. One, they are easy to move around in and two, that they provide excellent protection. The leather we use for the parts closest to the wearer's body is specially treated so that it does not suffer from long-term exposure to saltwater and the elements.
