-Everybody is just sort of assumed to be wearing a few pieces of minor protective gear as a matter of course (or be good at protecting themselves in some other way). If you want to be serious about armor, then that's where the Tank class comes in. Creatures with oversized shells or other natural protection might also have levels in Tank, as does anything that has naturally hard skin (like robots or golems).

-^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Armored Plating:** You are covered in heavy armor. The first time in a round you are struck by any attack, you treat your relevant combat ability score as double its normal value for purposes of defense against that attack. For example, if you are struck by a melee attack and your Melee combat ability is 3, you could subtract 6 damage from the attack instead of the normal 3 damage. Your combat ability scores are not actually changed and Tank has no effect whatsoever on your offensive capabilities. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Enduring Defense:** Every time you use Tank to reduce the damage taken from an attack, roll a trigger die. If the result is 7+, Tank remains active to protect you from the next attack taken as well. There is no limit to how many attacks Tank can protect you from during a given round except your luck. Tank always renews and is ready to defend you again at the beginning of each new turn you take. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Turtle Style:** Your armor is bulky and somewhat difficult to move in. You take an impairment to all movement. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Colonel Clank:** Tanking is not a subtle activity, and moving around in your armor makes a fair amount of noise. You cannot sneak or otherwise go unnoticed. |
