Description:
O-Yori is the traditional Japanese full plate armor, everybody has surely seen one in a museum or on the net (or in the AD&D Oriental Adventures book :-). It consists of a series of lacquered (varnished) steel and wood layers and is known for it's flexibility and great resilience. O-Yori almost always comes with a helmet of the same design, which provides an armor rating of 6 (+2 for the O-Yori for a total of 8 pts. of armor on the head).
