Tuesday Magic Item – Charm: Paper Armor

The priestess walked slowly down the line of nervous villagers, each clutching a simple tool that they hoped to use as an effective weapon. Stopping in front of each, she placed a charm against each villagers chest and in a second, they were clad in white paper armor.  While the protection the charms gave was limited, it gave the villagers hope that they would be able to stand against those

who would harm their homes and families.

Charm: Paper Armor

These paper charm are marked with the symbols for protection and safety.  When the command words (or prayers) are spoken and the charm is placed on a person, it unfolds into a suit of paper armor to protect them for a short time.

Activating the Paper Armor Charm is a standard action, the armor created provides a +2 armor bonus, that is effective against incorporeal creatures and touch spells, and the first save made while wearing it, is made with a +1 resistance bonus.  The armor has no weight and causes no penalties, it lasts for three hours and then dissolves into a handful of shredded paper.

New Spell – Carapace of Insects

The last words of the spell were more of a sequence of clicking sounds than words and within seconds, the sorcerer’s body was swarmed by insects.  Moments later, the cover became living armor as the interlocked layers of beetles moved with his body.
