Description
Made of interlocking metal rings, chain mail includes a layer of quilted fabric worn underneath the mail to prevent chafing and to cushion the impact of blows. The suit includes gauntlets.
This heavy armor is made using salvaged pieces of a dragon turtle's shell and can fit on a variety of common mounts. Once worn, the armor expands over the course of 1 hour to cover the creature with a defensive shell and enhance its natural abilities, granting it the following benefits:
- The creature gains a +1 bonus AC.
- The creature can breathe air and water.
- The creature gains a swimming speed equal to its walking or flying speed, whichever is higher.
The wearer has disadvantage on Stealth (Dexterity) checks.
If the wearer has a Strength score lower than 13, their speed is reduced by 10 feet.
