Serpent scale armor is magic, but does not confer magical armor bonus per se.
Instead, it qualifies as light armor, instead of medium. Moreover, there is no limit to the DEX modifier a character brings, as other scale armor offers.
Once attuned, this armor additionally confers immunity to all poison. Even if some poison creature or weapon gets beneath the armor, the serpent scales will immediately draw all poison out of the wearer.
Moreover, no snake will ever attack anyone wearing serpent scale armor. This does not make them friends, or even friendly, and if the bearer attacks a snake, it will do its best to flee, but it will never attack the wearer, even at the point of death.
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.
Notes: Immunity: Poison, spending an hour moving, dancing, and practicing in the armor., Combat, Warding, Stealth Disadvantage
