More from UlricKessler
(Dire Wolf) Order of the Silver Moon - Finished
A Huscarl-Krieger of the Dire Ritters Order of the Silver Moon.
This is more a first try concept piece, as this was intended to be full up plate armor. A fine look none the less although that breast plate throws me off a tad.

Indeed. The Dire Ritter consist of the three remaining ancient orders of knights (ritters) since the founding of the Canian Kaiser Reich.
The Orders are:
- The Order of the Silver Moon (Teutonic and Nordic traits and themes)
- The Order of the Ebony Gauntlet (Holy Roman Empire and Norman traits and themes)
- The Order of the Clarion Call (Polish and Swiss ((namely the Swiss Pike-men))
Their armor consist of ancient technologies to grant the wearer additional boosts in strength (about 2-3x normal strength and remember these are Dire Wolves after all so what they have already is quite immense) as well as a few other systems like short range radio communications, air filtration and some even mount vision enhancement features. It does not however incorporate such systems into the lower areas of the body and Dire Ritter aspirants and squires go through an intensely grueling process of physical training to build up their lower body strength in preparation for when they will be granted their own suit of armor one day.
The suits are made primarily out of Neo Ferrum, an incredibly difficult to create alloy that can take up to a whole year just to produce enough with the required purity in it's composition to be able to forge a single weapon or piece of armor using it.
Neo Ferrum has an almost ceramic like quality to it, in regards to how easy it can be formed and finessed from a single sheet to shape into a piece of armor or into a weapon. It must be done quickly and correctly as time is of the essence, once the material cools enough and sets into a given form it is nearly impossible to make any alterations. An almost unnatural skill of forging and skill as an armorer is required to even be considered allowance to craft with Neo Ferrum.
The armor is rather light given it's protective qualities, easily turning aside normal blade and small caliber firearms have almost no effect (well less you manage to get a bullet into a slit in the armor, and even then they wear ballistic padding underneath). In the case with the Toten-Jarls, the armor is of practically legendary quality and so strong that even anti-tank weaponry might prove unable to penetrate entirely.
