Flight Skin, Nascent

Light

Barathus designed flight skins to help them move comfortably in the cramped spaces favored by many terrestrial species, but the modular design proved easy to adapt to other species. A flight skin comprises redundant layers of light, airy material that lie nearly flat and resemble rubber or soft cloth but, buttressed by bio-psychic force fields, briefly inflate to reduce sudden impact. Flight skin environmental protections take the form of a thin membrane that, when activated, envelops exposed skin.

When you fall or are hit by a falling object while you’re wearing your flight skin, calculate the damage as if the fall were 20 feet shorter.

This armor was developed by and designed for barathus; as such, they are highly adjustable, easily accommodating barathus’ ever-changing physiology. Reduce the DC for Engineering checks to adjust these armors by 5; if you pay a professional to adjust the armor instead of doing so yourself, the cost is 5% of the armor’s purchase price.
