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.
• lightSmall enough for an off-hand strike as a bonus action.

A cap of boiled hide shaped to the head. It turns only a glancing edge.

Rules

• An armor piece changes no Armor Class on its own. The body armor is what sets it. Wearing the Leather Cuirass together with its head, hands, legs and feet pieces grants a +1 bonus to Armor Class.
