Armor

Armor in Seeker's Zeal is divided into five types. Each type gives a specific bonus that you will have to weigh against each other for the benefit of your Character. The types of armor also give you more freedom to design your character. Instead of buying a specific set of armor you select a type then describe why the armor you character is wearing fits in that type.

Example: A player is making a Hunter that they want to wear medium armor, but the Character primarily dresses in furs and not much else. The decide that the furs are from a creature with I naturally durable hair, thus it counts as medium armor.
