:* '''Notes''': Parade armor is a product of a sophisticated culture that is capable of producing very protective armors, but chooses to make lighter armor that 'looks good.' This is used for functions such as parades, coronation ceremonies, standing guard in palaces, and so on. For adventurers, parade armor is a level of protection similar to studded leather but which has a little style to it. Parade armor may or may not be available in all campaigns. Parade armor is made of heavy cloth, leather reinforcements that may or may not be visible, and light chainmail reinforcements, which may or may not be visible. Parade armor is often used as a uniform by a nation's professional military, and in such cases, if you are wearing a suit of such armor, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Diplomacy and Intimidate checks to influence a person from that nation. Of course, there may be downsides if you're impersonating a member of a nation's military.... | |||

Studded Leather | 25gp | AC 3 | - | 5 | -1 | 15% | 30 | 20 | 20 lbs. |
- Notes: Studded leather is a leather armor suit which has been reinforced by the addition of five pounds of hammered brass or iron rivets, studs, and bosses. Anywhere the wearer is likely to suffer a strike will have studs added. Studded leather has a very distinctive 'manly polkadots' look to it. The extra weight and rigidity of the studs makes the leather a bit more cumbersome, but studded leather is otherwise quite a good level of protection.
