====== Armoured ======

The foe regularly dons a suit of armour.  This inflicts a -1 penalty to the foe's Acrobatics, Athletics, Stealth and any spellcasting skills it may have, but grants it Resistance 2 to Physical damage.  

Further, the creature is trained in and is able to take full advantage of a shield.  The shield starts with +1 Deflection, Cover 0 and a d4 Shield Bash.  Then select any three of the following:
  * +1 Deflection (can be selected multiple times);
  * +1 Cover (can be selected multiple times);
  * d6 damage on a Shield Bash.

===== Upgrade =====

This feature can be taken a second time at Level 2 or higher, though not more than twice total.  Double the skill penalty and Resistance granted by the first level.  The foe's shield also gains one additional pick.
