Those serving under the Chieftain [[Tartarus]] wore an armor set composed of a forward facing helmet, a wraparound neck brace, and upper-arm braces with flat, pronged armor plates. This set was completed with a set of bandoliers wrapping around the chest and back, and leather wrappings holding pieces of metal between the toes. This configuration was also shared with the [[Jiralhanae Captain]]s who served with them, which held a red holographic flag displaying the clan insignia mounted on the back. | Those serving under the Chieftain [[Tartarus]] wore an armor set composed of a forward facing helmet, a wraparound neck brace, and upper-arm braces with flat, pronged armor plates.
