The Thieves' Leathers are a masterfully crafted set of magical armor tailored for rogues, spies, and infiltrators. This supple leather armor is dyed a deep, muted black with faint blue undertones that seem to shift subtly in dim light, allowing the wearer to blend seamlessly into the shadows. The armor is lightweight and flexible, offering maximum freedom of movement while providing moderate protection. Intricate runes etched into the seams pulse faintly when the wearer calls upon the armor's magical properties.

Designed to enhance the abilities of its wearer, the Thieves' Leathers are imbued with enchantments that sharpen senses, improve dexterity, and grant uncanny precision in the rogue’s craft. This armor is not only a symbol of a rogue’s skill but a tool that enables them to perform their duties with unparalleled efficiency.

Lore

The Thieves' Leathers were originally crafted by a guild of legendary rogues, who sought to create the perfect armor for infiltration and subterfuge. Using rare materials imbued with shadow magic and precise enchantments, they succeeded in creating a masterpiece. Each set of Thieves' Leathers is unique, and it is said that the armor bonds to its wearer, subtly adapting to their movements and needs.

Over centuries, these leathers have become a symbol of elite status among rogues, with tales of their wearers infiltrating the most fortified castles and walking unseen through armies of guards. Those who don the armor are often whispered about in legends, their exploits attributed to a blend of skill, cunning, and the armor’s supernatural aid.

The breastplate and shoulder protectors of this armor are made of leather that has been stiffened by being boiled in oil. The rest of the armor is made of softer and more flexible materials.
