Partially armoured: [Minor] by Iczer

'wait...you might want to catch me on my good side'

The character can create an armoured exterior over one half of his body. thes plates combine to contribute the following:

  • AR 13
  • + 60 SDC (this SDC recovers at a rate of 1 per minute, and it's loss does not end the power)
  • +1 to parry with the armoured limb. (does not assist with weapons)

Furthermore, if the character faces a single opponent, and turns his armoured side to him like a shield, he may increase his AR to 16 and his parry bonus to +3. Fire and energy attacks inflicted by this single target are halved (if the strike roll is greater than the AR. no damage otherwise).
When fighting multiple opponents, the character can use either his normal bonuses (ar 13) against all opponents or defend against a single foe and present no bonuses to all other targets.
Targets performing sneak attacks presumably have the presence of mind to target the unarmoured side.
