This was my first attempt at the contest as well. I'm an old school (started in 1982) AD&D player and DM as I see some others have stated in their item post. I got back into it, and into Pathfinder, about four years ago to pass on the fun to my kids, and then the neighbor kids, and then some parents. I had started jotting down notes for the contest I thought would be coming at the end of the year. I went to the site to look something up and saw this special season 9 with four days left to submit something. I know I added and "s" on the entry name (next to word count) and my spells aren't alphabetical. I really struggled with the price/cost. Went back on forth on weekly power or the ten uses..Let me know what you all think. I feel good it made it to the end and I am looking forward to the next contest.

Armor of the Crow
Aura moderate transmutation and conjuration; CL 9th
Slot armor; Price 46,300 gp; Weight 15 lbs.
Description
This black +2 studded leather armor is entirely embossed with small crow feathers. When the armor is first created there are ten additional, larger crow feathers embossed on the chest, five just above each breast. When the wearer takes damage reducing her hit points to zero or below, but not dead, the armor instantaneously heals the wearer to 1d4 hit points above zero and transforms the wearer (including all of her equipment) into a murder of ten crows for three rounds. During these three rounds the wearer is not in control of the crows and is effectively unconscious. The crows use the three rounds to fly as fast and as far as possible (base fly speed of 40 ft.) to the safest location they can find (based on crow senses – GM’s discretion). At the end of three rounds they land on the ground and the wearer is transformed back to her original form. Each time the armor functions in this manner one of the ten larger crow feathers disappears from the armor. Once all of the larger feathers are gone the armor becomes normal +2 studded leather armor. If the wearer loses enough hit points from one source to become dead, the armor alone transforms into a murder of crows then dissipates into a black vapor, destroyed forever, leaving the body behind.
Construction
Requirements Craft Magic Arms and Armor, cure serious wounds, beast shape II or Polymorph; Cost 23,325 gp
