Death ward

Death ward was a magical quality that could be applied to armor to protect its wearer from death magic.

Description
Armors enchanted with this power often were enameled in black and had an otherworldly translucence. Small images of skulls were often used in the ornamentation.

Powers
With the first time exposure in a day, and if the wearer desired, death ward armor could automatically make its wearer immune to death-like effects, including negative energy effects, for a period of an hour and ten minutes.

Creation
Enchanting such armor required a death ward spell.
