AC 18

This magnificent suit of plate mail shimmers with the iridescent hues of dragon scales, each overlapping plate reminiscent of a dragon's hide. The armor has a slightly serpentine pattern, with intricate engravings of dragon motifs adorning its surface. It feels surprisingly light for its robust design, making it easier to move than standard plate armor.

Draconic Resilience When wearing this armor, you have resistance to the damage type associated with the dragon whose scales were used to create it. If the scales are from a red dragon, you gain resistance to fire damage; if from a blue dragon, resistance to lightning damage; if from a green dragon, resistance to poison damage; and so on.

Lore

Forged in the fires of the legendary blacksmith, Throgar the Scale-Father, this armor was created to honor a pact made between dragon slayers and dragons themselves, emphasizing the respect between them. It is said that each suit grants its wearer a fragment of the dragon's power, echoing the fierce spirit of their fallen foes.

History

Originally crafted for the heroic knight Sir Aric Brightblade, who famously defeated the black dragon Yzarthor, this suit of armor has passed down through generations of dragon hunters. Many tales speak of its resilience, and it has inspired countless adventurers to take up arms against dragons in its name.
