The '''Armor of Brutus''' is an unbreakable set of armor available in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. The armor was the greatest possession of a mysterious cult called the [[Followers of Romulus]]. The armor is unlocked by obtaining all Romulus scrolls and keys from the six [[Lairs of Romulus|secret lairs]] spread throughout the city of [[Rome]].

It is the strongest armor in game and is found alongside the [[Dagger of Brutus]]. Like the [[Armor of Altaïr]], the Armor of Brutus has 25 health diamonds, and cannot be dyed nor broken.

==Appearance==
The armor looks much bulkier than [[Ezio Auditore]]'s [[Master Assassin]] robes due to the fur cloak that is padded along the pauldron. The fur is implied to be a tribute to Romulus, and thus is likely to be wolf fur. There is a silver eagle on the right shoulder that holds the cape up, as well as on the waist area where the [[Assassin insignia|Assassin symbol]] would normally be, which has been relocated to be painted right above it, on the mid-abdomen section of the armor. Another [[Assassin insignia|Assassin symbol]] is engraved onto the back of the armor.

The armor comes with a grey, short-sleeved robe that is worn underneath the breastplate. The bottom of the robes are in three layers, each one on top of the other, and come down to Ezio's knees. However, the bottoms act almost like a kilt, completely covering the legs, whereas the Master Assassin robes part at the sides to keep movement unencumbered. This does not affect mobility in the game, however.

The armor set consists of both metal and leather. The chest armor and spaulders are mostly metal, while the vambraces and greaves are completely leather. The vambraces and greaves are also very plain-looking pieces of armor, having very little design compared to the rest of the armor. Unlike the vambraces bought in the game, the Vambraces of Brutus cover both of Ezio's forearms instead of only his right. The hood and cape, which appear to be connected, are colored red with a golden trim on the cape.

==Trivia==
*The eagle-motif of the armor, the beak-shaped appearance of the hood, and the Assassin insignia on the armor's back strongly implies that [[Marcus Junius Brutus]], the original owner of the armor, was a member of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]].
*The Armor of Brutus gives the same amount of health to Ezio as the Seusenhofer armor set, though the latter allows Ezio to wear his regular, customizable robes.
*It is not confirmed whether Ezio actually acquired the Armor of Brutus in his lifetime, as it is not mandatory to have the armor to obtain full Synchronization. As shown in the cutscene of his fight with [[Cesare Borgia]] during the beginning of the game, as well as during his return to the [[Villa Auditore]] ruins, he is not shown wearing the Armor of Brutus.
*It is unexplained as to why the armor is so durable, unlike the Armor of Altaïr, which had been fortified based on knowledge from the [[Sixth Apple|Apple of Eden]], as explained in the [[Codex]].
*As the armor is much newer than the Armor of Altaïr, it is more of a successor, than a predecessor.
