Armor Potential Armor Class = 14 + Dexterity modifier (max. 2)
-2 Lightning resistance
Eyes on the scale armor expand the wearer's range of perception, providing a +2 bonus to the wearer's passive perception.
Donning and doffing this armor takes twice as long as normal.
Once per Short Rest: The wearer can focus all the eyes on a creature, who must then make a Charisma Saving Throw (DC = 8 + Proficiency bonus + Constitution modifier) or be trapped in a Nightmare for as long as the wearer maintains concentration or until they move more than 240ft away.
While trapped in the Nightmare: Depending on their personality, the target perceives the wearer as either their worst fear or their greatest hatred (or a combination of both). The target will either begin to flee as though affected by the Fear spell or attack the wearer, requiring a Wisdom Saving to target any other creature. Varies

This set of scale armor is made of dark purple hide, covered in bony, keratinous plates. it is inlaid with large, bloodshot eyes that dart around; the pupils contracting and dilating.
The armor has a crackling staticy aura about it that has a pleasntly invigorating effect on the wearer's muscles, however; it takes twice as long as normal to remove, as though it is clinging to its wearer.
While the wearing cannot see directly through the eyes they expand the range of their perception, providing a +2 bonus to the wearer's passive perception.
