The primordial lord known as Surtur crafted the first prototype of this armor. He gifted this suit to a fire giant champion named Hofthorm, who donned it during the conflicts of the Creation War and the Demon Spawn War (89 GE - 269 GE). While attempting to vanquish the demon prince Baphomet, Hofthorm met his demise within the fortress of Kodgroar.

Hofthorm Plate was chiefly developed to safeguard and potentially revive its bearer from frigid-based assaults such as iceballs, ice storm, and the innate chill of regions like Ice Cap. In contrast, the majority of this armor's sets range in value from +2 to +4, the one donned by the fire giant hero Hofthorm was +5.
