Pathfinder 2 – Magic Armour
Armour of the Armadillo
Source: PF Ultimate Combat (pf-uc128) and PF2 Gamemastery Guide (pf2-gg) inspired by Jade Regent – Forest of Spirits (jr-b4)

Here is another item I have converted over to Pathfinder 2 from the Jade Regent Adventure Path. It are currently available in all three games. This armour uses the O’Yoroi as a base and is provided as an example of the base item before enchantment.
O-Yoroi – Rare Item 5
O’Yoroi
- Heavy Armour
- Price: 170 gp
- AC Bonus: +6
- Dex Cap: +1
- Check Penalty: -3
- Speed Penalty: -10 ft
- Strength: 15 – Bulk: 3 Group: Composite
- Weapon Traits: Bulwark, Flexible
Note: Wearing the item gives you a +1 to intimidation checks, and is a unique set of armour that has its own story to tell, which you get to be part of. Very few of these armours are ever made, as few samurai ever reach the heights of fame to be allowed to wear them. Wearing one without authority is a capital office in all Tien lands.
Armour of the Armadillo – Unique Level 14
(Invested, Magical, Transmutation) – 4,045 gp
This +2 Resistant Greater Fire-Resistance Cold Iron O’Yoroi Heavy Armour has it should poultrons in the shape of an Armadillo with ruby coloured eyes.
