Chain Armor 
Chain Mail

Chain mail is an armor formed of small, interlocking loops of metal. This suit is low quality: the metal used is plain iron, there are only two layers of rings, and it is heavy and stiff for its size.
Steel Chain Mail

1800
A very rare suit of armor turned out by the Heavenly Forges of Governor Padish before the Silence. The armor was originally worn strictly by the Governor and his highest military officers as a badge of office. It is not just for show; this chain mail is lighter, stronger, and more supple than any other chain in the world.
Artifact
Galahad

Protection, +25 HP
Perhaps the finest chain mail created since the Silence, Galahad's material strength enchantments are so strong they are somewhat conferred upon the wearer's body, making it capable of withstanding much more abuse than normal.

+20 elemental resistances and luck, -30 endurance
This unique armor graces its owner with luck, helping him to escape the brunt of most elemental attacks. It draws its energy, however, from the constitution of its wearer, making the wearing of this armor a risky proposition.
Plate skill
Plate armor can be used by Knights and Paladins only. The skill can be learned in Castle Ironfist (500) or Silver Cove (625) (Berserkers' Fury guilds).
Expert teachers can be found in Castle Ironfist (Benito Tellman) and Free Haven (Woodrow Albright) (rank 4, 1000). The skill can be mastered for free and without any rank prerequisitions by Forest Suthers in Free Haven when Hero promotional quest is completed.

Composed of interlocking plates and joints, plate armor is the best unenchanted armor available. It is, however, heavy and slows the movements of the wearer. This particular suit is of average quality and the smith unknown.

Well constructed plates of steel work together to form an overall excellent suit of armor. A foundry stamp under the right arm indicates it was forged recently in Kelebrim.

This suit of plate armor was forged in the Mekorig foundry eighteen years after the death of Mekorig the Blind. A masterwork, the armor is almost as easy to wear as ordinary clothes, and is probably the best armor available in the world.

Recovery, regeneration, +30 endurance
Named after an ancient knight, Pellinore fortifies the wearer with an unnatural health so strong that the wearer heals from serious injuries in a matter of hours. The armor is quite heavy, and protects the wearer from being knocked about during combat.

+50 HP, SP and luck, -50 intellect
Perhaps this suit of armor was meant only for the Gods. Worn at times by barbarian chieftains, the armor will increase the physical vitality and magical energy the wearer has at his disposal, but at a terrible cost. House plants have been known to score higher on intelligence tests than wearers of this armor. One would think that accidental death would surely follow such a precipitous loss of thought, yet the luck the armor bestows seems to prevent disaster. Often the wearer of the armor becomes so stupid he forgets to remove it.
