Foe-Crushing Generator of Lamentations is a suit of articulated armor plate forged of black jade and steel. The shoulder pauldrons are several curved layers of plate, lobstered for ease of movement. The full helmet has a pair of small antlers for a crest, and a white jade visor sculpted to depict a fearsome grinning skull visage.


This sinister looking shell, also known as the Lamentor Armor, has a long and storied history. The oldest piece, the white jade faceplate called the Skullgrin Visor, originally belonged to another suit of armor dating back to the Shogunate. Carved from the bones of the earth itself into the guise of a wicked skeletal warrior by carftsmen of a bygone age, the rest of the original was suit was lost during the Balorian Crusade.


The helm was recovered by the exiled Haltan outcaste Malakos Rage-of-Ruin when he adventured as Sworn Brother of Sesus Chenow during their youth. Joined to armour plates of new manufacture by order of Chenow, Malakos wore the suit through many battles and ventures alongside the son of Sesus, until he was welcomed into the Dynasty through marriage to one of Chenow's innumerable children. That line held the armour until it failed to produce an Exalted heir to take it up, when it was reclaimed by the main line of Chenow. A few decades ago, many thought it would be granted to Chenow's grandson Sesus Lahore, but it did not join him when he embarked to search for adventure in the Northeast.


The armor is currently in the property of Sesus Septimus, and served him well in his campaigns in the northeast.
