Light Armor

Discover the Robes of the Metamorph in MetaMorph! Learn how these robes grant bonuses to Bluff, Diplomacy, and Disguise, and how sorcerers can use them for powerful transformations.

Hey there! So, you're looking into the 'Robes of the Metamorph,' huh? While they aren't exactly 'light armor' in the traditional sense, they're a pretty neat piece of gear that can really help you out, especially if you're playing a sorcerer. Think of them as a magical disguise kit you wear! These robes are a silvery blue-gray, look super elegant, and always seem to fit you perfectly. They actually give you a +2 competence bonus on both your Bluff and Diplomacy checks. That's handy for talking your way through situations, right? But here's where they get really interesting: if you're using the Disguise skill, these robes give you an extra +10 competence bonus. That's a huge boost! Now, for those of you playing a sorcerer (or if you've got at least one sorcerer level), these robes have a special trick. At the command word, you can transform into a disguise of your choice. This isn't just a visual change; it affects your clothing, armor, weapons, and any gear you're carrying. The catch? The disguise has to be something you could achieve with a _disguise self_ spell. You can activate or dismiss this effect as a full-round action, but it'll cost you one of your sorcerer spell slots for the day. Keep in mind, other characters might get a Will save to see through the illusion. The DC for that save is based on the spell slot you used. So, while they don't offer much in terms of physical protection, these robes are fantastic for infiltration, deception, and generally being a bit of a shapeshifting trickster. They cost 3,000 gp and weigh only 2 lb., making them a pretty lightweight addition to your inventory! **Prerequisites to Craft:** You'll need to be able to Craft Wondrous Item, know the _disguise self_ spell, and have a Caster Level of 1st. The cost to create them is 3,000 gp (which breaks down to 1,500 gp + 120 XP).
