Armored Shell

The Armored Shell Ritual allows the bearer of the Target Armor to increase their Maximum Body Point total by 1 for each Wear Extra Armor skill they have purchased. A character’s current Body Points can never be higher than their current maximum; so if a suit of armor is removed the bearer's current Body Points will be reduced to their normal (non-ritually altered) Maximum Body Point total if necessary. When donning this suit of armor, the character's current Body Points are not affected. This Ritual will not grant more Body Points than the total Armor Value of the suit, even if the character has more levels of Wear Extra Armor. A character may never be under the Effect of more than one Armored Shell at a time.

A character with 20 levels of Wear Extra Armor and a Maximum Body Point total of 50, will increase their Maximum Body Point total by 20 when wearing a suit of armor enchanted with the Armored Shell ritual, as long as that suit has an Armor Point value of at least 20. The character will require at least 20 points of healing when first putting on the suit, as only their Maximum Body Point total is increased.

This ritual requires a 4 reagents as listed on the scroll.
