Armor

Magic Items
Magic items are gleaned from the hoards of conquered
monsters or discovered in long-lost vaults. Such items grant
capabilities a character could rarely have otherwise, or they
complement their owner's capabilities in wondrous ways.

Clockwork Armor
Armor (plate), rare (requires attunement)
This early prototype of powered armor features dozens of
exposed, whizzing gears exposed inside a rigid outer frame.
To become attuned to this armor, you must learn to operate
the internal controls, requiring 1 hour and a successful DC
14 Intelligence check.
Your Strength score is 19 while you wear this armor, if
was not already higher than 19. Additionally, while
wearing it, your base speed increases by 5 feet. This armor
has no Strength requirement.
However, the clockwork armor is made from a deeply
flawed design; it is dependent on hydraulics and servos that
the metals and materials can't quite sustain. Whenever you
take more than 5 cold damage on one turn while wearing
the armor, the hydraulics freeze and your speed is reduced
by half, or is reduced to 0 if you take more than 15 cold
damage. This reduction lasts until the armor thaws during a
short rest.
The armor is extremely cumbersome, and adds 1000
pounds to your weight. Additionally, the armor requires
twice as long to don and doff. You cannot cast spells while
in this armor, even if you are proficient with it. Spell Clock
Creatures can attack the armor directly. The armor has
an AC of 14 and 50 hit points. If the armor is reduced to 0
HP, you are restrained within your armor until another Sorting Beast
creature can help you escape, which requires 1 minute of Wondrous Item, very rare
effort. Repairing your armor to its maximum HP and The sorting beast is a six-legged construct with eyes and

Additionally, the sorting beast can cast the spell identify
on one object you designate each day.
Spell Clock
Wondrous Item, uncommon (single use), very rare
(periodic)
A spell clock is a device which stores a single spell cast
into it, casting it after a set duration. The clock appears as a
square box with a face of enameled pewter with either two
or three gold or black hands that show the time remaining
until the next spell it contains is released. When operating,
a spell clock always produces a loud ticking noise.
Storing a spell in the spell clock and setting the timer
requires 1 minute, casting the spell you wish to store, and
expending a spell slot and components as normal. The
clock can only hold spells of 5th level and lower.
When the spell is cast, it targets the nearest creature, or
centers the effect on the spell clock, as appropriate.
There are two varieties of spell clocks. Single Use spell
clocks produce the spell once on a delay, and are destroyed,
but can accept duration in a number of minutes. Periodic
spell clocks produce a spell every hour (or any number of
hours) once they are stored, but are destroyed when they
are deactivated. Any type of spells clock will be destroyed
if it centers a destructive spell, such as fireball, on itself.
