Banded Bone Armor

This armor is made of horizontal rib bones, reinforced with bamboo, bound together with leather, and padded with soft hide.

Lighter than normal Banded or Splint Armor.

This armor is Fragile.  When the wearer is struck with a Critical Hit, the armor is Damaged and its protection is reduced to 15 AC.  If the wearer is stuck with a Critical Hit while the armor is Damaged the armor becomes Useless and no longer gives any AC bonus.  Roll 1d4, on a roll of 4 the armor is Unrepairable and lost forever.  Otherwise the armor can be repaired with woodworking or leatherworking tools.  The repair process takes 6 hours if Damaged and 18 hours if Useless.

(Ignore all information following this note.  I don't know how to get rid of it.)

This armor is made of narrow vertical strips of metal riveted to a backing of leather that is worn over cloth padding. Flexible chain mail protects the joints.

Notes: Str. 15 Required, Stealth Disadvantage
