There’s something undeniably intoxicating about the feeling of power one gets by terrorising others. This sensation has led many righteous paragons who don this armour to gradually becoming cruel, vicious tyrants. Inevitably, a fresh-faced hero rises to defeat these despots, swearing to use the armour exclusively in the service of good… and the cycle begins anew.
You have a +2 bonus to AC while wearing this Breastplate armour.
Oni’s Aura. As an Action while wearing this armour, you can release a wave of menacing lethal intent powerful enough to make other creatures tremble with fear. Each creature of your choice within 20 feet of you must make a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of you for 1 minute. If a creature fails the saving throw by 5 or more and isn’t immune to being frightened, it sees the ghostly image of an enormous oni materialising behind you and is also paralysed until the end of its next turn.
A creature frightened in this way must repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, taking 2d6 Psychic damage on a failure, or ending the effect on itself on a success. Once this property of the item has been used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.
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.
Notes: Bonus: Armor Class, Combat, Warding
