Dendron Armor

A living defense designed by the Xenowardens, dendron armor melds bioengineered wood with advanced microbespun polymers. A mossy layer beneath this outer shell provides cushioning and life support. Xenowardens stylize this heavy armor to resemble the sentient trees found on Castrovel and other verdant worlds. The organic design of dendron armor makes adding upgrades a challenge, but it offers a good balance between mobility and protection.

Each model of dendron armor has features based on a species of tree believed to have been native to lost Golarion. The least is the humble ash, followed by the supple yew, the hardy oak, and finally the majestic sequoia.
