Item: Niyaháat
Erutaki communities deep in the Crown of the World, where wood is hard to come by, fashion armor from slats and strips of bone or horn, along with whole bones or horns. Wealthier wearers sometimes pay for decorative embellishments made of more precious materials. Niyaháat is usually woven together with strong cord, forming a suit like a breastplate. This suit is worn over heavy clothing or a surcoat like padded armor. Some suits incorporate parts of powerful creatures, creating a storied history for the suit and its wearers.
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.
Armor Specialisation Effects
Skeletal armor, which is often composed of leather or bone plates, can deflect attacks from the edge or point. The benefits depend on the thickness of the bones (determined by the armor's potency rune).
Medium Armor: You gain resistance to precision damage equal to 3 + the value of the armor's potency rune.
