I used to play AD&D, DarkSun world. For those of you who don't know.

Basically Dune like desert planet scourged by dark defilers who are essentially sorcerers... who become so powerful they turn into the only Dragons in the game and rule city states like kings.

Anyhow, the world is incredibly resource depleted. Some fancy Bone armor is like normal wear. Wooden and stone weapons are the norm. And to wield an Iron weapon or wear iron armor you would need to be a aristocrat or even part of a royal family. A steel weapon would be considered legendary. The guy below is I think he's called Humanu and he ended up killing a dragon in single combat. He would be considered completely uber gear decked out.

Anyhow, I want to create a savage primal character using nothing more or less stone/obsidian/rock weapons and bone armor. Almost caveman in appearence... but I also don't want to lose functionality. I also want to use mostly my hands to pummel people to death but again without losing functionality. Can you think of a way to kind of bypass current mechanics using certain gear? Are there full plate armors made completely out of bone in the game? Suggestions are welcomed. :thanx:
