Generation
The Archeologist starts each game with a +0 leather jacket.[1]
In addition to random generation, general stores, used armor dealerships and antique weapon outlets can sell leather jackets.
Students, attendants, abbots, acolytes, guides, and apprentices have a 8⁄15 chance of being generated with a leather jacket;[2] hunters have a 1⁄4 chance of being generated with a jacket;[3] and thugs have a 1⁄2 chance of being generated with a jacket.[4]
Description
While worn, the leather jacket grants 1 base AC.
Strategy
The leather jacket is the weakest body armor available that grants base AC: though it is lightweight and does not interfere with spellcasting, it should be replaced with better armor as soon as possible.
History

Variants
In variants with object materials, leather jackers may appear as simply jackets.

The Beastmaster's Duster is an artifact jacket made of dragonhide.
SlashTHEM
In addition to SLASH'EM details, SlashTHEM adds two artifact leather jackets: the Beastmaster's Duster, which acts as the Zookeeper's 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.
