Hi, I am not sure this is a bug perse. Ever since my most recent level up, my character sheet displays a walking speed of 15 feet. I'm a forest gnome, so my normal walking speed should be 25 feet. I'm not encumbered (carrying 133 pounds out of a total carrying capacity of 180 pounds).
I'm not sure of other reasons why my walking speed would have decreased - I don't have any statuses on me at the moment, and I'm not wearing or equipping anything I don't have a proficiency in.
Here's a link to my character sheet if it helps. Thank you!
Link to your character sheet (use the URL, not the share link) so we can take a look, but it sounds to me like you're not meeting the strength score prerequisite for whatever heavy armor you're wearing.
Yeah, that was exactly the issue. And Splint and Plate Mail both require Str 15, so you'll want to build towards increased Strength before another armor upgrade.
(That looks like a fun character! But then I'm biased...)

Thanks! The character is naive and new to the whole adventuring thing, so the way I rp'd it was that in wanting to be extra prepared, she just put on the heaviest stuff she could find, nevermind how it made her clunky and slow :)
If she can get ahold of some Boots of Striding and Springing then she'll have 30ft speed and not be slowed by armor beyond her STR! Well worth it for a forest gnome :D

Ah, thanks. I did not roll too many points into strength, so that would make sense...
