Pact of the Shell by

# Pact of the Shell
Your Patron blesses your flesh with its otherworldy power, altering its form and granting you enhanced defences. While you are wearing no armor and not wielding a Shield, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma modifier.

Depending on your Patron, the visual effect of this Pact may differ. A Great Old One might cause your flesh to become slick with thick mucus, causing some attacks to slide right off of you, whereas a Fiend's blessing might cause patches of reddened scaley armor to form across your body. You should consider how this blessing will be seen by others around you when roleplaying, and whether it can be easily hidden from those around you.
