A ronin’s full kit worn as one: reinforced heart-guard breastplate, layered lamellae, sode shoulder plates, heavy kote vambraces, and suneate shin-guards. The breastplate bears the mon of the Empty Banner Cut: a blank standard split by a single diagonal stroke.
Armor Class. You gain a +2 bonus to AC while wearing this armor.
— Heart-Guard (Chest): Fortified Heart —
While wearing this armor, any critical hit against you becomes a normal hit.
In addition, you have advantage on saving throws against being moved against your will (such as being shoved or pushed).
— Kote Vambraces (Arms): Vambrace Bind (PB/Long Rest) —
When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can force it to make a Strength saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier).
On a failed save, the creature’s speed is reduced by 10 feet until the end of its next turn and it can’t take reactions until the start of your next turn.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
— Suneate Shin-Guards (Legs): Unbroken Footing —
Your speed increases by 5 feet.
You have advantage on saving throws and ability checks made to resist being knocked prone.
Additionally, when you are knocked prone, you can stand up by spending only 5 feet of movement (instead of half your speed).
— Silent Lamellae (No Drape): Road-Shadow —
You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to move quietly or remain unnoticed in crowds, rain, smoke, fog, dim light, or similar cover (DM determines suitability).
— Ronin’s Refusal (All Pieces, 1/Long Rest) —
When you would be reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, you can drop to 1 hit point instead. You regain the use of this feature when you finish a long rest.
This armor consists of a fitted metal chest piece worn with supple leather. Although it leaves the legs and arms relatively unprotected, this armor provides good protection for the wearer's vital organs while leaving the wearer relatively unencumbered.
