Robert is one of the men at arms in my household. He has approximately eight months before he reaches the age of 18 and we are putting together his armor kit. We are hoping that he can authorize in heavy combat when he turns 18.
In the effort to get his kit together I have taken one of my old helmets and have padded it for him. I put a coat of silver paint on it to cover some of the rust and expect him to repaint it when he picks some livery colors. He has also been gifted with an old gorget. My old coat of plates needs a couple plates replaced and we will both work on this to get it ready for him. His sword is done and his shield has been pressed and needs to be finished.
We will need to work on legs and arm armor to get him fully equipped and also add gauntlets. That should prepare him for his first practice and see him through to his authorization.
Part of the agreement we have in the household is that He will have to make at least one piece of armor for those following behind him.
