Light Scatterscale (3.5e Equipment)

Light Scatterscale
This armor shimmers like a prism in the light, but its light butterfly-thin materials, however many layers it has, doesn't seem terribly protective.

In spite of the name, scatterscale is not actually made of scales. A product of science, it is a thin yet strong framework of composite materials, crystals, and empty space to help absorb and redirect energy. Scatterscale armor applies its AC to your touch AC as a result.
