Helmets (often truncated to simply “helms”) are armour for one's head. Without a helmet, serious injury to the head can occur in the heat of battle.

The Various Helmets[edit]

Numerous types of helmets have appeared throughout the ages, and hereafter follows a list of all known variations:

Lore[edit]

Helms often match body armour in material and strength, but variations, such as offensively spiked helmets, are available.
An unprotected head is sure to be the target of any shrewd opponent's sword. Helms are available in a variety of leather and metal forms, and one should be worn at all times when combat seems likely.
For any man who has ever enjoyed a good thought or feeling, a helmet is a wise investment for his kit. In any town of note, helmets can be found in a variety of materials.
