Hlang

__NOTOC__
A hlang was a Chultan oval-shaped, hide shield, most common in the cities of Mezro and Port Nyanzaru.
==Description==
An oval hlang was wide and between tall. It consisted of animal hide—often dinosaur hide—fitted over a wooden frame. The shield was designed to be collapsible; the hide could easily be removed, rolled up, and used as a chair or pillow, while the frame could be folded up for easy storage.
A hlang was approximately equivalent to a typical large wooden shield in terms of weight and defensive capabilities.
==Notable Owners==
