The Drowned were armoured entirely in reinforced and void-hardened Mk IV plate, a gift from the Lord of the Mechanicus, the traitor Fabricator-General Kelbor-Hal. While it was hardened in the same manner as the Mk III battle-plate that was more common in actions fought in a void or in the murky deeps. While the armour had been in development for decades, designed as a replacement for the clunky and aging suits of Mk III 'Iron' pattern armour many void specialists were forced to use, the only legion to receive a significant number of the suits were the Drowned (a benefit of their allegiance to Icarion). Included within the suits, in addition to extra mobility due to using the Mk IV chassis rather than Mk III, were numerous features specifically designed for war under the waves, such as devices referred to by the Drowned as "gills" which enabled the suits to extract breathable oxygen from the water around them when activated and, although a major drain on power, this would allow the Drowned to fight for longer in an underwater environment.
