Armored Mechanical Spring Boots - (Armor-feet)
Creator: Ranok
Last Known Owner: Ranok
Description:

Leather boots, plated in the white metal that the rest of Ranok's armor is made of. The name being a slight misnomer, as there are no actual springs involved in its construction. So-called runic batteries of the smith's own design run along the calves and store tension. This is gained primarily from the simple act of walking, but also serves as a significant step in insulating against hard shocks. This serves as a handy benefit when the user is at great heights and drastically reduces the threat of death by sudden stops upon the ground. Stored tension can be released all at once, firing off a burst of propulsion that can throw several hundred pounds high into the air.

History:

A long history of heights, falls, and a lack of the ability to fly have all vexed Ranok for some time. The air grants mobility not shared by ground dwellers, and the boots seek to even the score. While the bounds are not flight by any means, a spring can give a quick get away, re positioning, or serve as a harsh kick in a pinch.
