Description:
A polished set of armor whose surfaces do not reflect the environment but instead display shifting images of the emotions and memories of those nearby. The armor pulses faintly with colors corresponding to feelings—red for anger, blue for sadness, gold for joy—creating a living tapestry of human experience. The wearer is said to experience intense empathy, sometimes to the point of losing their own identity.
Recovery Notes:
Recovered from a Pale Country battlefield site, the armour was found intact yet emanating a subtle aura of sorrow and unresolved conflict. Initial handling resulted in vivid emotional bleed-through among recovery personnel, causing empathy overload and temporary identity confusion.
Function and Believed Use:
Believed to be worn by memory-stained knights serving the Pale Court, the armour acts as a conduit to absorb and reflect the emotions of allies and enemies alike. It may have been used to bear burdens of guilt or to channel collective memory during ritual combat.
Known Incidents:
Incident 14Q: A wearer reported losing sense of self after prolonged use, overwhelmed by the flood of external emotions.
Incident 19T: Unauthorized donning of the armour led to psychological collapse in one operative, requiring extended recovery.
Containment Protocol:
Stored in a padded, climate-controlled chamber designed to absorb emotional energy discharge.
Handling restricted to trained personnel equipped with mental shielding and support.
Exposure limited in duration to prevent emotional overload.
Psychological evaluation mandatory post-contact.
