Ashmar is a piece of artifact armor that appears in EvilHack. It is unaligned, and its base item is a dwarvish roundshield made of mithril.

Generation

Ashmar can only be created by combining Ogresmasher and Trollsbane at a forge; it cannot be wished for, and will revert to its base item if left in a bones file.

Description

When worn, in addition to the AC conferred by its base item (including bonus AC for dwarves, Ashmar confers half physical damage, hungerless regeneration, acid resistance, extrinsic protection (which adds +MC1, up to MC3), sets the player's constitution to 25, and prevents the wearer from being knocked backwards - additionally, if Ashmar deflects an attack, it has a 14 chance of knocking the attacker back.

Ashmar can be forged together with The Sword of Annihilation to create the Armor of Retribution.

Encyclopedia entry

The Guardian, or 'Ashmar' as spoken in the dwarvish tongue.
Arguably the best defense a warrior could ever hope to
have. Rumor has it, the bearer of this magical shield
could never be forced to retreat, and that its foes would
be repelled should they dare to attack.
