Servius constructed his own armour from items he bought and discarded scraps collected by Avitus at gladitorial fights. Its light-weight and flexible construction based on Servius’s build allows for a maximum range of movements whilst fighting and performing other more atheletic maneuvers. Whilst the armour is obvious when being searched, to the casual observer in the shadowy tunnels of the necropolis, the armour is fairly well concealed.

A recently added detail to Servius’s armour is extra reinforcement front and back in the ‘heart’ region.
