Processional Burden Rig

Created by alexiss

This sturdy carrying frame consists of a skeletal structure fashioned from aged darkwood, reinforced with wrought iron braces at critical stress points and padded generously with supple leather to cushion the wearer's shoulders and spine. Originally engineered by craftspeople to transport towering religious monuments and elaborate ceremonial idols through crowded thoroughfares during holy festivals, the rig's ingenious design has caught the attention of seasoned adventurers seeking reliable equipment for expeditions into perilous lands. The frame's sophisticated weight distribution system channels the burden across the wearer's entire back and shoulders, effectively multiplying their carrying capacity far beyond what an unassisted person could manage. Warriors have repurposed this civilian marvel for transporting plundered relics, siege supplies, and other substantial treasures from dungeon depths and ancient ruins. The construction is robust enough to withstand the rigors of combat and travel, though its bulk and weight make it unsuitable for those requiring mobility or stealth. Those strong enough to don the rig gain the ability to bear loads that would normally require a small team of porters to transport.
