@LukeAlmighty@gameliberty.club Looks like armor to bridge the gap and protect the armpit.
All I could find for that was Rondel(s) which is a disc shaped piece that protects that gap.
This might just be a fantasy thing, but I'm sure it has a name.

yep the rondel just means disc shaped, but there are other shapes that are historically used to protect the armpit. this specific piece of armor would actually be called a besagew (first post attachment is an example of a leaf shaped besagew as opposed to rondel shaped) as for this fantasy piece of armor, I’m not sure if I could call it a besagew because they are usually just one big plate and not in an array, but it appears to functionally protect the armpits all the same. I guess the artist is trying to design their own take on scale mail?
