The '''Tectonic Plate''' is a suit of armor that originally appeared in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]''. It is a sturdy suit of armor infused with the power of the earth.
 
==Characteristics==
The art for the tectonic plate consists of a breastplate, pauldrons, tassets, and knee pads—all made out of a dark grey metal. The chest armor, shoulder pads, faulds, and knee pads all have dark red edges, while the tasset at the front of the waist has gold edging and a cross decoration. The breastplate also has an intricate curved design in the front. The armor is worn over chain mail and with a long blue cape that has white lining.
