Item: Linnorm's Sankeit
The first suit of +3 greater resilient antimagic sankeit made in this fashion was crafted for the Varki linnorm king Nankou, after he claimed his title by slaying a taiga linnorm. By Varki tradition, the armor was crafted using some of the slain linnorm's body to decorate the breastplate and helm, which imbued the armor with several of the linnorm's natural abilities. Though the helm is shaped like the beast's head, a linnorm's actual head would be too large for a proper helmet.

Effect You breathe a 60-foot cone of electrified vapor, dealing 17d6 electricity to creatures in the area (DC 38 Basic Reflex). The electrified mist persists in the area for 2 rounds, dealing 5d6 electricity (DC 38 basic Reflex save) to each creature that ends its turn in the mist.

Trait Effects
Laminar: The armor is made up of layered sections, so when it breaks, it isn't as much of a problem. The status penalty to AC if this armor is broken is –1 for broken medium armor, –2 for broken heavy armor, or no penalty for broken light armor.
