Mithril Finemail Smallclothes

CL 11 Armor Slot Item • Moderate Abjuration
Cost: 6,200 gp
Weight: 3 lbs.
Family: Finemail Smallclothes

Finemail Smallclothes are light, extremely well-made "boutique" items that fit into the armor slot of those who wear them. They do not require an armor proficiency of any sort to wear, and do not, ever, inflict a non-proficiency penalty for wearing armor, nor do they count as wearing armor for class restrictions, race restrictions, or in any other way. Conversely, they do not provide any sort of armor bonus to the wearer, and cannot be enchanted with an Armor enhancement bonus, nor can they carry any sort of an Armor Magic Property.

So, they are exceeding delicate, often extremely beautiful, lightweight, and often decorative items of smallclothes. While such items are very common in depictions of the adventurer's lifestyle, they seem quite useless wastes of money, until you realize that Finemail Smallclothes can be made of Dweomermetals, and while they are not armor and give no protective armor effect at all, they do allow the wearer to benefit from the effects of the dweomermetal they are made of.

Plus, let's be honest, Finemail Smallclothes look awesome. If you want your adventurer to have some serious style and really showcase that Charisma, these items are the way to go.

Because they occupy the Armor slot, Finemail Smallclothes cannot ever be worn with another Armor item.

Mithril finemail smallclothes grants a +2 material bonus to all Charisma-based skill rolls. They inflict a -2 penalty to your Maneuver Defense to resist any sunders made against any of your equipment. Someone wearing Mithril Finemail is making a statement, and that statement is: they look fantastic. GM's are encouraged to take this into account for role-playing. When Bronan the Barbarian puts on the Mithril loincloth, it should Mean Something.

This magic item does not require an attunement period, and grants its benefits immediately upon being worn or wielded.
