The Bizaza Guard are diverse in armor and weapon styles as each piece is hand made by skilled artisans in the temple cities, tailored to each fighter's favored weapons and warrior clan's traditional fighting secrets.
They work in teams and usually favor a mix of star-metal shields for protection and heavy close combat weapons suitable for bringing down great lizard beasts and other monsters of their jungle homelands.
Bawz'hoxx the Shieldbearer is the rock upon which the foe breaks. The Shieldbearer protects his fellow troops in the formation while trying to break the enemies one. Bawz'hoxx's heavy starmetal shield is a type often employed by the powerful Bizaza Guard. It can be used to stop blows or to batter an opponent to submission. Tradition has it that these heirloom shields were made from the scales collected from the body of a mighty silver fire dragon that once fell from the heavens. The secrets of their making are long lots to the mists of time but their magical metal alloy provides significant resistance. It can blunt steel weapons and stop the deadly volleys from blackpowder weapons of the invaders of the Bizaza domains.
