| Fantasy armor has a long and noble tradition of [[awesome|awesomeness]]. Bear skin speedos, chainmail bikinis, massive codpieces, and boobplate are all standard equipment for adventuring parties and threads dedicated to ridiculous armors are a common sight on /tg/.

|
| == The Four Fs==
| |
|
| |
| Why does /tg/ celebrate such brazen sluttiness? The answers are known as the 4 Fs:
| |
|
| |
| * '''Freedom!''' - In a world where rules and restrictions constrain everything that we do, RPGs give a unique outlet to let loose your inner [[/d/|degenerate]]. In an RPG, if you want your warrior to wear nothing but a magic sock (which counts as full platemail) then nothing is stopping you.
| |
|
| |
| * '''Fun!''' - Elaborate and highly stylized armor is interesting and enjoyable to look at. [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition|An entire world filled 120% utilitarian equipment]] is boring and becomes repulsively dull.
| |
|
| |
| * '''Fashion!''' - Stylized armors give players an outlet to customize their characters to make them different from all the mooks.
| |
|
| |
| * '''Fap!''' - An irrefutable fact of /tg/ is that many threads that claim to be "armor" dumps quickly degenerate into fap threads. Not that thats a bad thing.
