Bone Armour

Bone armour, like bone weaponry, is significantly less expensive, has the benefit of being lighter armour, but does not offer much in the way of protection. It is ghastly to behold as it is fashioned from the bones of the dead. Bone armour has the following features.

Available Armour: Scale Mail, breastplate, splint mail, banded mail, half-plate and full plate.
Special Rules: Characters wearing bone armour in combat receive a +2 circumstance bonus to all Intimidation checks. All casters casting spells from the Necromancy school have a -5% less chance of spell failure while wearing this armour. However, whenever an opponent successfully hits the wearer of bone armour with a natural roll of 20, the armour’s bonus to AC drops by 1. In addition, all Move Silently checks suffer a -4 circumstance penalty when made while wearing bone armour.
