Armor

Mimic Armor

Created by Yuri01

This suit of armor possesses a sentient, predatory nature derived from a captured mimic, making it a living second skin that molds itself to fit any wearer perfectly. When an attacker strikes the armor directly, it responds with violent, snapping counterattacks from its malleable surface, biting and tearing at the offending limb with supernatural ferocity. Those foolish enough to strike this armor bare-handed risk losing fingers, hands, or entire arms to its ravenous defense mechanism. Even armed attackers find their weapons in peril, as the armor's bite can sever, splinter, or wrench away poorly-held blades and implements. The armor hungers for violence and grows more aggressive with each blow it receives, making it as much a threat to those who underestimate its power as it is a guardian to its wearer. Despite its dangerous nature, it remains bound to serve its wearer faithfully, distinguishing between intentional attacks and accidental contact through means unknown to most scholars of the arcane.
