The Lion's Plate is a suit of Orichalcum Celestial Battle Armor once used by Admiral Arcadi and now in the possession of Largo the Black Lion. It was recovered from Arcadi's tomb by the Abyssal known as Howl of the Void, Largo's brother. The two clashed in the championship round of a tournament in the Gem Coliseum, and Largo came away with the victory and his former incarnation's armor.
The suit, like all Celestial Battle Armor, provides numerous powers using the very pinnacle of lost First Age magitech.
