Each point of Stun Protection (SP) in armor causes a one point
penalty against your character's Dodge Roll and the AG related skills of Climb,
Jump, Hide, Run and Sneak.

'''Leathers''' -- Leathers are
the simplest form of armor, as they are basically clothes made from soft
leather rather than cloth. They normally consists of a leather shirt tied in
the front, a leather cap, and leather trousers tied with a drawstring. Once
broken in leathers can be quite comfortable. They are the only armor that can
reasonably be slept in.

'''Jack''' -- The jack is
probably the most popular form of armor, as it is legal to wear it in most
towns. It consists of a reinforced leather jacket with hood worn over a cloth
tunic, and leather trews worn over trousers. They are reasonably comfortable to
wear, but are uncomfortable to sleep in.

'''Hauberk (Leather, Ring, Scale, or Mail)''' -- This is a pullover tunic worn over specially made padded clothing.
It covers the shoulders, chest, stomach, upper arms and legs down to the knees.
It can be made of leather, ring, scale, or mail, and includes a coif (hood that
covers head and throat) and leather trews to cover the legs. This type of armor
is normally available only to the constabulary and the military. It is against
the law in most towns and cities to wear a hauberk unless one is on duty. A
hauberk is also quite uncomfortable and encumbering.

'''Light Chain''' -- The armor
of knights and higher nobility. It consists of a chain mail byrnie (tunic), a
separate mail coif, a plate helm, and mail trews. It is worn over leather tunic
over a padded cotton undertunic, and over leather trews. Typically the links of
light chain are much finer and tighter than is common with other chain armors.
In addition, it must be custom 'fitted' to the owner. It provides just a little
more protection than a mail hauberk, but is much more comfortable. Although
made for war, light chain is also required during many of the ceremonies of the
nobility, thus is often decorated and even fanciful. A surcoat is usually worn
over light chain, but is not included with the chain price.

'''Plate Mail''' -- The same
as Light Chain, but with additional steel plates protecting torso, joints,
shoulders, and neck. It is never worn except during war, and is quite
uncomfortable and encumbering.
