Armour, Very Rare, Cursed
This full set of black armour gifts and curses whoever wears the armour.
The Good: If someone wears the armour it immediately becomes a part of the creature, fusing with them. While the armour cannot be removed, it feels like a second skin (transforming into a natural armor), and wearing it does not fatigue or exhaust the creature. It is comfortable and easily slept in. In combat the wearer feels no pain, even when dealt the most grievous of wounds. Whenever the creature is dropped to 0hp, the armor immediately stabilizes them and they receive a permanent +1 to AC. Once this happens 5 times, they become resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, taking only half the damage dealt. Once this occurs 10 times, they become immune to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage. These effects are permanent.
The Bad: Whenever the creature is reduced to 0hp, the armor begins to spread, turning the creatures skin into a flexible steel. This offers the unparalleled protection the inscription boasted, but also makes the wearer decidedly less humanoid. They grow cold and distant, their actions almost become mechanical. They begin to loose all sense of compassion, mercy, morality, and emotion. When they have been reduced to 0hp five times or more, their alignment becomes true neutral, and the steel skin becomes adamantine. Once the creature has been reduced to 0hp ten times, their body solidifies into an indestructible adamantine statue offering unparalleled protection from the ravages of aging, hunger, and life itself. This effect can only be reversed with a wish or divine intervention. If the creature should die while wearing the Breastplate of Unparalleled Protection, the armor consumes the body instantly, leaving no trace of the creature behind, and this, not means of a resurrection short of a wish. The only way the armor can be removed from the creature after it has bonded with it is to cut the armor off, though doing so will remove all skin around the creature's torso, effectively flaying it alive.
