Alyssa Goldenblade: Dragonarmor

Dragonarmor is the suit worn by Dragon Highlords from the realm of Krynn (Dragonlance by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman). The Highlords are dragon riders, so the armor needed to be protective, mobile and withstand the high altitudes. If you search for it across the web, you will most likely get images of the famous Kitiara Uth Matar, who sports the standard issue.

The DCUO did their livestream featuring their Etrigan inspired set that came with the Justice League Dark Episode, they actually used the black, gold & blue combination and it looked pretty close to Dragonarmor. So I knew I had to attempt it as soon as I could get the parts!

Head: Ancient Amazon Noble
This is just Alyssa's standard go-to head style. For the actual Dragonarmor look, Viking combined with a ventilator for the face would be pretty close.

Alyssa in Fortress of Solitude
Back: Nabu
This a simple cape inspired by Doctor Fate, but because it's new, it has more detailed ripples than most others. It also comes up over the neck with a collar, which makes it easier to blend into the shoulders with a material. The Dragonarmor cape should be black, in which case stealth would be ideal. I just don't have that one on this character, so I'm using Temporal (Quantum).

Chest & Legs: Son of Belial
The base of this is the Etrigan set as mentioned in the intro.

Shoulders: Vengeance
This is pretty much my new go-to shoulder for styles where I want to combine the cape and shoulders to form a bat-like look.
[from lockbox or PvP (Huntress style)]

Alyssa in Fortress of Solitude
Hands: Son of Belial
The base of this is the Etrigan set as mentioned in the intro.

Waist: Dark Specter 2018
Another standard hero style for my characters.

Feet:  Master Mercenary
I didn't do with Etrigan in this case because I felt the female version was a bit bulky. I usually look to slim down the boots. While Master Mercenary doesn't have the front plate over lighter armor, it does have a line pattern that looks close to the original and the color settings are detail work surprisingly well for a much older style.

Aura: Blue Mystical

A visual match to the blue armor and represents Alyssa's blue fire powers.
[from Resurgence Megacapsule III]

Accessory: Blue Spirits or Ball Lightning
Either one makes a good color match

Movement: Blue Smoke
To represent blue fire
