 A medieval Japanese helmet with a scowling facemask that provides excellent protection to the entire head and face. 

This is a somewhat heavy clothing item made of iron and leather, which covers 95% of your head, eyes and mouth, and which has no storage capacity. It is very bulky, encumbers you a bit, and will keep the areas it covers barely warm.

It offers low protection against bashing attacks and low protection against cutting ones (that includes bullets), while offering low protection from environmental hazards.

It provides a weak block when wielded as a weapon.

This clothing item can be repaired, fitted (if appropriate) and reinforced via the mechanics skill, by using a soldering iron and scrap metal.
