Aura moderate enchantment; CL 9th; Slot armor; Price 17,175 gp; Weight 10 lbs.

This studded leather armor is lavishly adorned with a bound swarm of hellwasps. Once ranking among the most spectacular pieces of clothing, the discomfort caused during the creation of this corset is as legendary as the protection it offers.

This +3 studded leather armor prevents the first 20 points of damage the wearer takes each day (resetting at midnight).

Once the wasps have prevented 20 points of damage for the day, they angrily animate and swarm around the wearer, and the wearer must make a DC 18 Fortitude save or gain the nauseated condition for 1 round. After 1 round the swarm returns to the corset and goes dormant.

Special: The swarm cannot be targeted separately from the armor and cannot be killed unless the armor is destroyed (not just broken.)

Craft Magic Arms and Armor, lesser planar ally, summon swarm, caster level 9th; Cost 8,675 gp.
