A helm is a type of armour intended to protect the head. It forms no hindrance to the combat capabilities of the character wearing it.

No skill is required to use a helm. Helms cannot be combined with crowns or hats.

List of helms

Selection, specifications and flavour texts by Fander Treespook.

helm	level	value	armour class	flavour text	size
Ordinary Helm	1	100	3	This plain helm is made up of a thick leather skullcap and a bronze brim. Everybody should wear one for protection... from bird droppings.	2x1
Masquerade Casque	4	200	7	The Vampire communities of the Typhon Expanse enjoy drama so much they even take it out of the theatre. The mask piece itself, of course, indicates the taking of a role, but the fact that it is a silver imitation intimates this in a more subtle, yet even stronger way.	2x2
Warrior's Bascinet	8	600	9	Standard armour of the Soronne elite war establishments for centuries, these helms still seem to regularly find their way into non-military service. In times of piece they are probably illegally sold and in times of war they are probably legally apprehended from fallen warriors.	2x2
Sentinel Helm	12	800	11	Originally constructed for the sentinels of the borders of Timberfall, these helms are always made from a base of mogred skull bone. The best variants are covered with hardened mogred hide and have the readily enchantable poisonous spines of the ferocious beast for horns.	2x2
Spiked Armet	16	1000	13	Designed to strike terror into the heart of the enemy, these helms have the breaths of the visor cut to mimic fiendish teeth. In addition, huge spikes are affixed to the skullcap. However, anybody recognizing a stalt alloy would not worry about looks.	2x2
Agni relic	30	30000	17	Fresh out of Gharik's Forge, the reddish metal of this helm certainly suggests it's imbued with fire magics and the telltale mark of Gharik dates it to 1082 AS. It does draw away the wearers strength however, so it is not of perfect make, suggesting the smith might still need many years of forging before becoming a master artisan (+15 Armour Class, of Fire Magic, +20 Body Resistance, -20 Might).	3x3
