Description
When worn, the leather jacket confirms 1 base AC and no magic cancellation.

SlashTHEM
In addition to SLASH'EM details, SlashTHEM adds two artifact leather jackets: the Beastmaster's Duster, which acts as the Zookeeper's guaranteed first sacrifice gift, and the Full Metal Jacket. SlashTHEM also adds the Pirate role from dNetHack, and Mayor Cummerbund and skeletal pirates have the same odds of generating with leather jackets as in dNetHack.

In EvilHack, the Infidel role starts each game with a cursed fireproof +1 leather jacket - giant Infidels will instead start with a cursed fireproof +1 pair of low boots in its place.
