Armor of Chance

This magic armor can shapeshift to the exact size of the wearer and can be resistant to any element. It is imbued with many elemental runes each of which represents a different element.

at the beginning of every combat scenario role 1d100 for the element if you roll a one it's just a normal set of scale mail 

when attuned you roll 2D100 and you can use any action in the combat scenario to switch the elements

acid, cold, fire, lightning, necrotic, poison, psychic, radiant, and thunder are the elements that the armor can resist.

1 normal 

2-20 acid - acidic places 

21-30 cold - ex. frozen caves, frozen tundra

31-40 fire - ex. volcano, magma caves

41-50 lightning - high mountains, anywhere stormy

51-60 necrotic - anywhere with a huge amount of dead eg. graveyard

61-70 poison - anywhere poisonous eg. poison dragon lair

71-80 psychic - anywhere with great mental strain eg. lost in a fog

81-90 radiant - any where the pc's faith doesn't align with the current environment eg. a holy city or another gods realm

91-100 thunder - loud places and same places as lightning.

if the environment corresponding to the element has difficult terrain then the difficult terrain is negated for the wearer

When in a combat scenario the element that is selected allows you take half damage from the element attack (if a 1 is rolled physical damage is only reduced down to 75% of the attack  eg. 10 piercing damage is now 7.5 piercing damage [round up if decimal]) 

When not in combat you can freely switch the element and the element of the environment (eg. if you select the cold element if you walk through a frozen tundra its like walking through a warm and sunny meadow)

The above only applies out of combat still roll on every combat scenario (when attuned if an element is already chosen keep that element and roll 1d100 for combat)

The creation of this armor was made centuries ago by a long forgotten arch wizard who brought revolutionary changes to the world. This armor is one of his more powerful creations of his personal collection. This armor was made for a dear friend of the arch wizards who loved to explore the most obscure and extreme of regions. when the friend died he was buried in his beloved armor. Roughly 50 years after the arch wizard disappeared 3 people went to the friends grave and stole the armor off his corpse. Shortly after this the armor circled the black market before finding its self in a museum. after researchers studied the armor they were able to finally make this armor but due to its high cost of materials there is only 1 in each continent and only 1 copy of the blueprint was ever made. The blueprint is preserved through a spell the arch wizard cast long ago and has been passed down to the descendants of the friend.

Must be made by a level 10 Artificer sub class armorer

This armor consists of a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish. The suit includes gauntlets.

Notes: the armor often takes the appearance of a brown long coat (or color of scale), simple shirt (color element dependant), simple pants, boots (snow treads if element is cold, sandals for fire), metal tipped gauntlets (if character doesn't have claws). if element is acidic or poisonous it turns into a hazmat suit. if water reaches your shins the boots transform into rain boots and pants and coat turn into overalls., by a fighter, paladin, ranger, or barbarian, Shapechanging, Warding, Negates Difficult Terrain, Stealth Disadvantage
