This very light, flexible and skin-tight armour looks like just a coating of fiery ash that couldn't protect anyone, yet this is far from the truth.
It grants the AC of 17 + Dexterity Modifier and resistance to fire damage.
However, while it may be protective against single strikes, the armour doesn't do well under continuous stress
If you are damaged more than once per round, Ashen Skin loses 1d4 of its AC for each additional hit. At the end of each round, the Ashen Skin restores Its AC by 1 if you weren't hit that round.
Some of the armour's integrity can be restored by intense cold. Taking at least 5 Cold damage restores the Ashen Skin's AC by 1d4.
If the armour's AC is reduced to 10 (the minimum) it deals 2d12 fire damage to the wielder at the end of each of their turns until they restore the AC somehow, or until they take the armour off.
Taking any Fire damage automatically reduces the AC by 1
Made from tough but flexible leather, studded leather is reinforced with close-set rivets or spikes.
Notes: Resistance: Fire, Combat, Warding
