'''Shardplate''' is an ancient and powerful type of full-body armor found on [[Roshar]]. Infused with the power of [[Stormlight]] by gemstones affixed to its interior, it enhances the strength, dexterity, and speed of the wearer. The origin of Shardplates has been lost over time, but it is believed that they were a gift from the [[Almighty]]. The power of Shardplate is provided by a continuous infusion of stormlight from gemstones attached to inside of the armor. This suggests that Shardplate may be some sort of [[fabrial]].

 

== Appearance ==

A set of Shardplate is constructed of individual pieces that, when assembled, protect the entire body. There are no gaps between sections of the armor, only increasingly small overlapping plates. Shardplate helms have visors with eye slits that may be lifted up to expose the face. Although similar in appearance, each individual suit of Shardplate has a unique look and, because it conforms to the shape of its wearer, the same suit may appear unique on different individuals. The unfinished color of Shardplate is slate-grey, similar to unfinished steel. In current timmes is a common practice to change the appearance of one's Shardplate by painting it, or adorning it with decorative details or even gemstones.

 

 

== Abilities ==

The augmented abilities of Shardplate are fueled by Stormlight from gemstones attached to the inside of the armor. After a time, the Stormlight can be depleted rendering the armor useless and the wearer immobile. In situations of extreme stress, the gemstones may crack.

 

 

== Acquiring and Donning ==

As the technology used to create Shardplate has been lost, a limited number of suits exist. The only way to acquire a set of Shardplate is from another person. This can be done through battlefield combat, by dueling, or by borrowing it from the owner. It is common for Shardbearers to loan their Plate to others. Even the King's own shardplate can be borrowed at a heavy price.

 

 

== Weaknesses ==

Although incredibly strong, Shardplate is not invincible. Repeated impacts to the same areas can cause that piece of the armor to crack and leak Stormlight, depleting it at a higher rate. Once the Stormlight is exhausted, the armor will be rendered immobile.

 

 

The breastplate is a central support structure. Destroying the breastplate alone will disable a Shardbearer.
