A hedge knight is a wandering knight without a master. Hedge knights are so named because they generally must sleep outdoors, under a hedge. Most hedge knights travel in search of employment and often attend jousts to make money and display their prowess in hopes of being hired. Less scrupulous hedge knights put their martial training to use by resorting to banditry.

"Hedge Knight Armor" is a lore friendly, stand alone, heavy armor set. This armor brings back memories of Oblivion with it's knight in shining armor feel. If you prefer an exquisite, royal looking armor, this set is for you.

The pieces are Steel Plate quality in armor value and weight. Powerful enough to use at any stage of the game, and appropriate to it's material. No god-mode items here folks, this is a lore friendly set.

The armor set requires the "Advanced Armors" perk to craft, and has equivalent crafting material requirements to Steel Plate armor.

This armor is heavy only. It was hand crafted for all races and both genders.

This mod is 100% stand alone and does not require another mod for it's use. That said, many may prefer it as it comes, but this is the first set I have released that I highly suggest the use of another mod with. I built this armor to mesh perfectly with "Winter is Coming" cloaks. The armor looks it's best when wearing a cape IMO, but I deferred to Nivea's masterful cloaks rather than adding my own. The cloak depicted in the screenshots is the "Timber Wolf" cloak. Get one of her cloaks here.
