This helmet is part of a matched set of masterfully made full plate. It has a great comb on top to strengthen the skull, and is adorned with a laurel wreath, plated in gold. It is part of an exceptionally talented warrior’s gear, performing the station of Queen’s Champion. When one Champion retires or passes away, the armour is recovered, repaired, and passed on to the new Champion. The helmet grants a +1 insight bonus to Armour Class when worn with any set of heavy armour, and grants a +4 bonus on saving throws against Illusion effects while worn. In addition, this allows the wearer to extend a +2 competence bonus to Armour Class to a single ally within reach Hooks: * The previous Queen’s Champion fell in battle while on a quest, and a bandit lord has been parading around wearing this helmet. The PCs are hired to recover it, with prejudice. * Recovered from bandits, the role of Queen’s Champion has now been passed to the young heir of his family. With a new coronation approaching, the PCs have been asked to make sure that the new Champion turns up to defend the new Queen, let alone knows how to do his job. * With the coronation done, it is now the Champion’s duty to safeguard the Queen’s honour and person, against challenges both domestic and abroad.
