Magical analysis indicates that this armor is a normal suit of +3 full plate. However, the armor is cursed. It works normally with regard to melee attacks but actually serves to attract ranged weapons. The wearer takes a –15 penalty to AC against any attack by a ranged weapon. The true nature of the armor does not reveal itself until the character is fired upon in earnest—simple experiments (throwing rocks, for example) do not suffice.
Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, bestow curse.
Cost to Create: 4,500 gp, 360 XP, 9 days.
