Item: Rebounding Breastplate
This +3 greater resilient greater fortification breastplate absorbs impacts for later release. While wearing the armor, you gain resistance 5 to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage and resistance 10 to force damage. Keep track of how much damage the armor prevents from enemy attacks, as the armor absorbs that damage.
After 1 minute, the absorbed damage disperses harmlessly and resets to 0. Only damage caused by foes or hazards powers the armor, not damage you take from yourself, allies, or the environment.

On a failure, they're pushed 10 feet away from you, and on a critical failure, they're pushed 20 feet away from you and fall Prone. The armor's absorbed damage resets to 0.
