Bayek wearing Isu Armor

Isu Armor is any technologically advanced suit of adamant plate armor created by the Isu. In Atlantis, the armor was worn by Isu who served as commanders in archives and military garrisons.

History[edit | edit source]

During the Peloponnesian War, the misthios Kassandra explored Aletheia's simulation of Atlantis and "collected" a complete armor set in the altered memories.[1]

400 years later in Ptolemaic Egypt, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa found and wore another suit after visiting all the Stone Circles scattered throughout the kingdom. The knowledge gathered by Bayek during his pilgrimage allowed him to unlock the entrance of the Isu vault Eesfet Oon-m'Aa Poo beneath the Great Sphinx and retrieve the armor stored inside upon activating the ancient mechanism. Unlike many other examples of Isu-related armor sets, this one did not grant Bayek any additional capabilities whatsoever.[2]

In the 860s, the Hidden One Basim ibn Ishaq uncovered the suit of armor Milad's Outfit in an Isu vault underneath an oasis north of Baghdad, alongside the sword Shamshir-e Zomorrodnegar and dagger Samsaama, which he also took.[3]

Legacy[edit | edit source]

In 2020, the Assassin Layla Hassan applied an Animus mod to create a usable simulation of a similar suit of winged armor while reliving the memories of the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir during the Norse expansion into England. However, the wings were made of light and could not grant the wearer flight, thus were purely for aesthetic purposes.[4]
