KnightWear/Armor

Armor

Analyze

You analyze the tanned leather pourpoint and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

This pourpoint is part of the interactive KnightWear family and is set up as an armor item with the Lance (traditional knight!) set of characteristics.  KnightWear items have messaging that sometimes incorporate other worn Knightwear items and specific types of footwear into the messaging.  Some messaging also differs when mounted on a Rumor Woods-style horse.  You sense that the pourpoint currently includes the base verbs (Verb Set 1).  You can try to: WEAR, REMOVE, RUB, and TAP the pourpoint.  Note: you can only wear 1 per "type" of KnightWear at a time (i.e. you can wear 1 KnightWear belt and 1 Knightwear surcoat at the same time, but you cannot wear 2 KnightWear belts at the same time).

  ~~ KNIGHTWEAR ALTERATION INFO ~~~
The tanned leather pourpoint may be altered within guidelines for its item type.

Optional: specify how your armor is assembled: "pieces" or "parts", more generic methods like "straps and buckles" or simply just "straps", etc.  The default is no particular method.  It is currently not set.
