Mustard yellow helmet with a fin on top and a dark brown chainmail corselet, armor covering the trunk of the body. The corselet features flat panels across the chest and in three rows of squares below, connected by chainmail. The chainmail juts out in triangular edges at the shoulders. Two organically-shaped clasps hold either sides of the chest together. The helmet visor tents up at the center, fin and edges outlined with a serrated pattern.
