Armour

Most characters faced with combat will wear some sort of armour. Each armour item starts with 3 counters on it. These represent the integrity of the armour. Every time you become injured (0 HP or lower), the armour is damaged and you must remove one counter. When all the counters are removed, the armour is damaged to such an extent that it no longer gives you extra HP. During downtime, you can have your armour repaired by paying the restore price. This restores all its 3 counters. You can only equip one armour item at a time.
