Broken Armor

You start the game with the Broken Armor set--though it isn't quite broken until after you've cleared the prologue section. It has no particular perks or advantages, so it's really just a cosmetic set you keep just for the heck of it. You definitely don't want to wear this any longer than you have to after the game's world opens up, so quickly discard it and wear a better set as soon as you get one. Still, it does have memories attached--the death of your old ways and the beginning of your path towards becoming a dishonorable proto-ninja. Good times.
