Shardplate
An ancient magical suit of armor, the customary complement to a Shardblade. Made of intricate interlocking plates with no leather or mail showing, powered by gemstones, capable of blocking a Shardblade and enhancing the wearer's strength and speed. Each section can be cracked and then broken with a focused second strike, leaking Stormlight from the wound. SA:WoK:Prologue
