Properties

Hover or tap any of these for what it means.

  • armorWorn protection. Sets or contributes to your armor class.
  • armor-pieceA piece rather than a suit. It changes no armor class on its own; a matched set of head, arms, hands, waist, legs and feet grants +1.
  • mediumMedium armor. Adds a limited Dexterity bonus to your armor class.

Body armor of steel plates riveted between two layers of leather, with the rivet heads showing in rows on the outside. It grants a +1 bonus to Armor Class beyond the ordinary pattern. The scales re-laced onto a new backing, overlapping the right way round so nothing catches an upward strike.

Rules

  • An armor piece changes no Armor Class on its own. The body armor is what sets your Armor Class.
