This fine armor is crafted from the thick scales of the arapaima fish, sewn with mithril thread to a supple leather backing and infused with protective magic. It is a very supple and light-weight armor, allowing for a far greater freedom of movement and range of flexibility over traditional metal mail, the wearer adds their full dexterity bonus to their AC while wearing this armor. The arapaima scale armor is also quieter, and the wear suffers no disadvantage to stealth checks.
However, due to the minor inherent flexibility of the arapaima scale, bludgeoning and force attacks are more effective against it than normal metal scale armor. All attacks, area of effect spells, or abilities that deal bludgeoning or force damage deal an additional 1d6 of that damage to the wearer.
This armor consists of a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish. The suit includes gauntlets.
