📋 About This Mod
I decided I wanted a nice golden armor set for my characters, specifically, my tank. This uses the Gold model normally only available to King Cailan. I did not want this armor set to be overly powerful, but it does have some pretty strong stats on it. Each armor piece has a short quite from Cailan embedded in the description.
