Millennial Chainmail [Relic]

This suit of armor feels like mithral chainmail to the touch, but its minuscule rings are a pale green color that turn brighter when exposed to the sun.

If you are chaotic good, chaotic neutral, or neutral good, millennial chainmail functions as +1 mithral chainmail while you wear it. It is considered light armor and has a maximum Dexterity bonus of +8, an armor check penalty of –⁠2, and an arcane spell failure chance of 15%.

Relic Power: If you have established the proper divine connection, a suit of millennial chainmail painlessly extends tiny green roots into your skin when you don it. This effect grants you fast healing 3 as long as you are in brighter than shadowy illumination.

To use the relic power, you must worship Corellon Larethian and either sacrifice a 4th-level divine spell slot or have the True Believer feat and at least 7 HD.

Lore: The original suit of millennial chainmail was created by a dryad cleric for her lover, an elf hero who kept the surrounding woodlands safe. Upon the elf’s death, the armor was consecrated to Corellon Larethian, who duplicated it for several of his chosen heroes (Knowledge [religion] DC 20).

Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Sanctify Relic, regenerate.

Cost to Create: 2,000 gp (plus 4,150 gp for mithral chainmail), 160 XP, 4 days.
