"MAGICAL PROTECTION" "SPIRITUAL PROTECITON"

Many items give you a bonus to your Armor Class (AC) which makes you harder to
hit.  These items are usually heavy metal armors, tough hides, or other
physical proection.  In addition, there are "magical protections" and
"spiritual protections" that will also improve your AC through magical or
spiritual means respectively.  It all functions the same - to make it harder
for you to get hit in combat.
