Here’s a new magic item my PCs found that I thought I’d share:

Vestment of Steel: This unassuming white cloth robe endows the wearer with a permanent magic vestment spell, conjuring a translucent suit of chain mail around him (AC 5, DR 1). The robe weighs but two pounds and does not impinge the wearer’s movement, though it rattles like ghostly chains whenever he moves. Thieves et al suffer a −4 penalty on attempts to hide, move silently, or pick pockets when so garbed; the referee might impose other penalties at his discretion. The vestment of steel cannot be “stacked” with other armour—the better AC prevails—though the wearer can bear a shield or enjoy other forms of magical protection. XP Value = 1,000; GP Value = 10,000.
