Dragon scale mail is made of the scales of one kind of dragon. Sometimes dragons collect their cast-off scales and gift them to humanoids. Other times, hunters carefully skin and preserve the hide of a dead dragon. In either case, dragon scale mail is highly valued.
This resplendent masterwork armor shines in the light, a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of its scale mail. Impeccably overlapped scales form an almost impenetrable weave, offering both flexibility and rigid defense against lethal blows. Adorned with horns and teeth, the pauldrons, gauntlets, and greaves curve upward, mimicking a massive dragon's silhouette—a formidable visage ready to unleash its breath, while providing added support against blades.
