The wise warrior never enters the LARP battleground with the back exposed. The Backplate for Dark Drake or Dark Warrior - Size Large safeguards your spine, allowing you to concentrate more fully on the adventure that lies ahead. This backplate fits perfectly with our Dark Drake and Dark Warrior breastplates. It is craft from 18-gauge steel and treated with a dark metal coating that aids in rust and scratch resistance. The backplate follows a simple medieval inspired design. The shaped shoulder blades, the rivets that follow the edges, and a small flange at the lower rim assist in the deflection of blows. Secure this backplate to its matching breastplate via the leather straps found at the shoulder and waist.
