+X AC when worn. Where X is half your wisdom modifer rounded down.   The Broninfel Helm is a rigid headdress constructed primarily of reinforced white wood, overlaid with a thin layer of golden leaf for surface durability and visual prominence. The base is an elongated oval frame designed to encircle the wearer’s head, tapering slightly at the rear to maintain balance and fit. The interior edge of the frame is smoothed and beveled to prevent abrasion, with faint tool marks visible upon close inspection. The outer structure extends upward into a fan-shaped crest, composed of thirteen evenly spaced vertical rays, each ray measuring approximately nine inches in height and one inch in width. These rays are cut from the same white wood as the base and are uniformly curved to provide structural cohesion. The edges of each ray are reinforced with narrow ginelwa strips, riveted at three evenly spaced points. The rivets are flush with the surface, minimizing the risk of catching or tearing fabric. The face of the headdress is undecorated except for subtle incised lines running vertically down each ray, intended to enhance their visual symmetry. The central ray features an engraved helflinz emblem at its base, rendered in shallow grooves filled with a mixture of golden and silver leaf. This emblem is precisely centered, with its rays extending to the adjacent beams without overlapping. The interior of the headdress is padded with quilted linen stitched into evenly spaced diamond patterns. The linen is dyed a pale cream color and treated with a protective oil coating to resist moisture and decay. The padding is affixed to the wooden frame with small ginelwa tacks, each placed at uniform intervals along the interior circumference. The entire piece is secured to the wearer’s head using a series of adjustable leather straps, attached at the base of the frame and fastened under the chin with a ginelwa buckle.   Set Bonus (Broninfel Armor Set (4th Heretical Period)):   1: N/A   2: Gain 30 Necrotic Damage Mitigation   3: Gain an additional +1 to AC   4: Friendly creatures that are below half health gain 1d4 hit points at the start of their turn in combat, while within 10 feet of the wearer   5: Gain an additional 20 Necrotic Damage Mitigation   6: Gain Resistance to Necrotic Damage
