The Legend of the 9 Armors

When Talpa first invaded the Human World, 1000 years ago, he was stopped by the Ancient. The Ancient banished
Talpa's spirit back to the Nether World, however Talpa's soulless armor still remained. The Ancient recognizing that Talpa
could use his armor to return to this world decided to defuse its power.

The Ancient Split Talpa's armor into 9 separate armors. He infused each of these armors with one human
emotion/spirit. The nine armors could be divided into two categories Ronin and Warlord. The 5 Ronin Armors spirits were
based on Confucian virtues and were also infused with one of the 5 elements.

The Ronin Armors consist of: The Armor of Wildfire (perfect virtue, fire), The Armor of Torrent (trust, water), The
Armor of Hard Rock (justice, earth), The Armor of Strata (life, air) The Armor of Halo (wisdom, spirit).

The 4 warlord armors were infused with the four samurai virtues. The warlord armors were also the first armors
corrupted by Talpa. They are: The Armor of Cruelty (loyalty), the Armor of Venom (piety), the Armor of Corruption
(obedience), the Armor of Illusion (serenity).

It is possible for the armors to be combined to form more powerful armors. This is evident when Talpa was able to
absorb all nine armors, as well as in the creation of the Inferno Armor.
