Properties
As a mithral armor, the Mithral Chain Shirt provides the following benefits:
- Light Armor Classification: Despite being chain mail, mithral armor is treated as light armor for proficiency purposes
- No Stealth Disadvantage: The mithral construction eliminates the disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks normally imposed by chain armor
- Enhanced Mobility: Lighter weight allows for greater freedom of movement compared to standard chain mail
History
This armor was originally worn by a member of the Drow raiding party led by Commander Viren Tharin. The drow likely valued this armor for its combination of protection and stealth capability, essential for operations in the Underdark. After the party defeated the drow forces in combat during Session 46, the armor was looted from the fallen warriors.
