(How do you do those little boxes that you can open for alt text?) Alt Text: A post by @leonard_ritter, showing an image of a roughly humanoid figure with a lot of red dots near the arms and legs, with another image presumably from a video game in which a female looking humanoid is shown, wearing armor that covers arms and legs, but only a bikini-like area near the torso region. The post says “our dwarven engineers came up with a new armor design protecting against the typical injuries sustained by warriors returning from battles in the netherworld”.

      Yes, you reinforce places where the retuning ones aren’t injured. They need an iron cummerbund and bare titties.

      I suspect the warriors were wearing armour on their torsos when they went to battle, leaving only extremities able to take damage

    This is fun because of the assumptions it makes of the reader before it’s funny, and once you get it, you’re in the ‘in’ crowd. I lold

      those seem to be metal boots and leggings, and probably leather gloves and sleeves, with a piece of metal on the forearm

      the torso might be fine, but the metal + leather in the legs and arms will pull so much heat they will be extremely hot and sweaty

      The joke is that these are the warriors that return from battle. Those that didnt make it likely died because they were stabbed in a spot those who returned weren’t stabbed, but the engineers aren’t all that smart and only design protection from the injuries they see.
