Have you ever been shopping for armor and just couldn't find the right style/design for you? Well, now's your chance to design some!
For this month's contest, you are to design different sets of armor.

Here are the requirements:
1. Design a long description for some robe armor.
2. Design a long description for some full leather.
3. Design a long description for some double leather.
4. Design a long description for some brigandine.
5. Design a long description for some chainmail.
6. The designs can NOT be longer than 60 characters on any of the descriptions including spaces and article (some,a,an).
7. Do NOT include shows.
8. Indicate in your entry (1-5) what armor type you are building for (you can denote this by stating full leather). Please review the example below.
9. Do NOT duplicate entries for armor types (do not submit 2 entries for robes). Each submission must be a different armor type.

Example:

1. a pristine crimson silk shirt with gold buttons - robes
2. some sapphire blue casting leathers embossed with a peacock - full leather
3. a rugged leather arming coat secured with sinew ties - double leather
4. a midnight black coat-of-plates inset with polished mithril - brigandine
5. some moss green mithril chainmail emblazoned with a lyre - chainmail

Entries that do not include all nine requirements and follow the guidelines will not be considered eligible.
