Faerie dragons used to be a race of the same species as mottled ones. Too bad, their vivid colours became their bane, as they alerted potential prey. They are now extinct, and this prized relic is one of the last proofs they ever existed.

+X mottled dragon armour

Has 1d3 Random Effects

Found by killing the Enchantress, it has random properties, usually positive. Specifically, it will almost never have any of +Rage, *RAGE, -CAST, *TELE, or MUT(+). It also has a small (1/20 chance of each) chance to have clarity, +(1 to 11) MP, or +(-10 to 11) HP. It will always be positively enchanted, with somewhere between +2 and +7 enchantment. Base stats are identical to mottled dragon armour: 6 AC, -1 EV, wearable by all races that can wear armour. It even provides the same sticky flame resistance.

Desirability

Greatly depends on what properties it gets. Heavy armour users will seldom want to switch to light armour for it, but light armour users will much enjoy the extra AC and GDR that this item invariably grants.
