ARMOR<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Athasian heat makes heavy armor oppressive – metal suits are doubly so. Apply the Armor Check Penalty of any metal armor worn to a character\u2019s skill checks and saving throws related to heat, dehydration, fatigue or exhaustion. For non-metal armor, apply half the penalty (round down). Armor check penalties for shields do not apply to such checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
