| A long time ago, a mighty golden dragon seized the rulership of all dragons in his part of the world. Yet his reign didn't last long, stopped by a single puny human who then made this armour from the dragon's hide. |

Desirability
The armour of the Dragon King is a +9 gold dragon armour with +50 MR. While you can get better AC by fully enchanting a mundane gold dragon armour, this armour's MR bonus helps makes up for this, and finding the requisite scrolls of enchant armour to actually create a superior AC suit is substantial and time-consuming investment. Any character that doesn't care much about EV or spellcasting, or is subject to considerable armour limitations (e.g. ogres and trolls), will find this armour incredibly useful. Unfortunately, such characters are often a distinct minority for most players.
