Designed to be the ultimate trap, an Armor Monster devours anyone foolish enough to wear it. However, after its latest meal, it goes against the usual script of "betraying" the party, and kills its master. Deciding to become an Adventurer, it travels with the party, helping people in need. However, it soon finds trouble, the least of which is trying to not expose itself for what it is to its party members.

*HyperspaceArsenal: The Armor Monster can store weapons within itself.
