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 masterfully crafted armor gleams, showcasing an impeccable scale mail design. Overlapping scales form an almost impervious weave. Despite its metallic appearance, the scales are lightweight, flexible, and rigid, withstanding deadly blows. Horns and teeth embellish pauldrons, gauntlets, and greaves, curving upward for extra blade resistance. The ensemble evokes a colossal dragon, poised to unleash its breath in a magnificent display.
