Sir Trollelot, secretly a pacifist at heart, generally regards his Sun Shield as a multipurpose fashion accessory. Held above his head, it reflects the relentless sun away from his bronze helm! But Sir Trollelot also secretly hopes it will catch the eye of a fair troll maiden, to warm his heart and his hearth… However, the Sun Shield is really named for Sir Trollelot’s tendency to wave it about (in what he hopes is a threatening manner)…alas, with only moderate success…when he wishes to intimidate bad mannered trolls!

Slowly evolving from the first pins made of copper in around 5000 BC, and small daggers in around 2500 BC, the earliest swords made of copper, gold, silver and lead were both practical and lavishly embellished. The earliest narrow swords from the Middle Bronze Age were used primary for thrusting, while the wider bladed swords of the Late Bronze age were better suited to cutting. After his first scuffle with a bad mannered troll, Sir Trollelot named his trusty sword Dintalot, as it didn’t really harm said troll, but it did put a lot of dints in his helm and shield!

Sir Trollelot is justifiably proud of his shiny Bronze Coat of Arms, created by the finest Troll weapon crafter in his clan! It hangs above the fire place in Sir Trollelot’s stone round house, where it is greatly admired by visiting Trolls from other clans. It is also a reminder of the sword dance, in which Bronze Age trolls jumped up and down above crossed swords until they had cut their toenails, or lost a leg, depending on their skill or their clumsiness.
