Fire dragon scales are a relatively light suit of body armour which provides reasonable physical defense, a bearable encumbrance rating, and excellent fire resistance (rF++). However, they also penalize the wearer with one rank of cold vulnerability.
This item has a 1/3 chance to generate when you slay a fire dragon, like all other dragon scales.
Desirability
Fire dragon scales are a suitable general-purpose armour: they provide almost as much protection as plate armour, while having an encumbrance rating that will still allow spellcasting. The rF++ they provide is very useful, but it is often best to wait until you have at least one source of cold resistance before wearing these; taking 150% damage from cold attacks can be lethal.
