When taking the feat Armor Skin it says you gain a +2 natural bonus to your Armor Class.
I guess my question is, are there any physical manifestations from the feat? i.e. Does your skin get thicker.........that kind of thing.
What accounts for the change if anything?
All thoughts and rationales appreciated, especially from any DM.
Thanks,
Baden

Sorry, I did not see there was a "General Questions" thread before I posted this. If it needs to be moved there, please do so. *smile*

I'd suspect that entirely falls to whatever fits the individual character's flavor (within reason). Warriors might have thick scarred skin, wizards might tattoo small wards into their skin, rogues might...do something...sneaky-ish. My .02

your skin absorbs your armor and your armor cannot be removed once you get the feat

Essentially what Ninja said. The feat description says "natural AC" but it's applied as " other" and therefore applies in a way that stacks with everything. Doesn't even apply to your dodge AC cap. So you can quite literally RP it as anything within reason, because ICly it could be any number of things. Harder skin? Persistent spell effect? Dodgy-ness? The spirit of a Shinigami that arises from your PC's forehead to smack errant arrows away from his masters face? *shrug* Whatever floats your boat.

I certainly do not like the "your armor sticks to your skin" option, although practically no one has seen Jerand out of his armor............Coincidence, I think not.
Thanks for the ideas and quick replies. More input is always welcome, too.

Your body quits being a pussy. You are able to not go into shock so.easily from various wounds etc?

Alternatively,
The rugged ranger or barbarian may have adjusted themselves to high climates and their skin grew thick to adapt to the environment-- I wonder what the intrinsic value of 1 AC is equivalent to. A sheet of paper? A natural flinch? I'm not so good at this. You take over!
Let the AC genome project begin!
1 AC= baby flesh 2 AC= kitten fur 10 AC= Human skin
etc. etc. ?

I've seen some people with tough skin before, here we call it "rough leather" hehe, people who cannot be stung by mosquitos, walk barefoot on stones, and pretty much have calous everywhere, usually working heavy duty under extreme duress ( amazon forest comes to mind)
