GITHYANKI MITHRIL (Mindsilver)
This very rare, highly prized, metal is mined and forged on the Astral Plane by the githyanki. Items made of this
metal have a dull silver appearance, with faint highlights that resemble distant clouds. (Over a long period of time,
the patterns of these highlights will drift and change shape.) Githyanki mithril performs nearly identically to
celestial mithril, save that its masterwork properties are its to hit, critical check, AND critical damage bonuses. It
also provides a bonus to base damage and range increment. And much like glowsteel, it is considered to be silver
with regards to damage reduction. Likewise, armors of githyanki mithril are nearly identical to celestial mithril,
although the chance of arcane spell failure is not as low and it does not resist critical strikes any better than normal
steel. However, the reason why it is called mindsilver is the reason why the githyanki use it to forge their dreaded
silver swords and try to keep them out of non-gith hands. The metal is inherently psionic, and weapons made from
this metal more easily disrupt the spells or psionic powers of a struck foe. Additionally, armors forged of mindsilver
grant the wearer a small bonus vs. mind-affecting abilities as well as a small increase in mental hardness, allowing
the wearer an increased defense against mental attacks. Due to its inherent psionic nature, items of githyanki mithril
do not require any crystalline components to be psionically empowered. -
CRANOR (Tree-gold)
This metal isn’t metal at all. Instead, it is specially treated and hardened tree sap. It is most commonly found among
elves or forest-based metal-poor cultures. Weapons made of tree-gold tend to be sharper than metal, gaining a
masterwork bonus to hit, a small increase in range increment, an increased threat range, and an improved chance to
cause a critical hit. As cranor is not a metal, it is immune to rust and electricity. This nonconductive property
extends itself to those who wear tree-gold armor. Also, as the material isn’t metal, druids may wear any type of
armor when it is made from tree-gold. However, cranor also has its drawbacks. As it is merely tree sap, items made
from this material tend to be brittle and are more easily broken. Additionally, cranor is vulnerable to sonic attacks. -
LAEN (Smokesteel)
Laen is a cloudy gray crystal that, from a distance, resembles solidified smoke. (Hence, the alternate name of
smokesteel.) Much like cranor, this very rare material is n’t truly a metal. It is actually a dense crystal found on the
Elemental Plane of Earth. This density is what provides the benefits associated with it. Weapons receive a
masterwork bonus to hit, increased damage, increased critical multiplier, as well as improved hardness and hit
points. Additionally, any weapon formed of laen is considered to be blunt, regardless of its actual shape. Armo r
gains increased protective value, a resistance to critical hits, along with better hardness and hit point values. As
smokesteel is not a metal, it is immune to rust and fire, and druids may wear any armor formed from this material.
Armors made of laen impart the fire resistance to their wearers. However, as a crystal, smokesteel is vulnerable to
cold, which makes it brittle and prone to shattering. -
STORMWOOD
This material is used primarily to improve the performance of ranged weapons. Stormwood is the name given to
lumber harvested from trees that grow on either on the highest mountain peaks of Arborea or the windswept tunnels
of Pandemonium. Having grown in the punishing winds, items made of stormwood have an affinity for the air. As
a result, weapons made of stormwood are very lightweight, and are able to thrown (or fired) much further than their
mundane counterparts. (Pandemonium stormwood differs from its Arborean cousin in that missiles made from it
give a distinctive whistle when fired or thrown.) Although intended primarily for ammunition such as arrows or
bolts, some bounty hunters find cause to make melee weapons out of stormwood. This is because these weapons
become capable of inflicting only nonlethal damage, but at no penalty to hit (although there is a small decrease to
the weapon’s threat range). -
LEAF ARMOR
This material can only be used to modify nonmetallic armors – padded, leather, studded leather, and hide.
Originally developed by elves, leaf armor can found in any race or culture that lives primarily in a forested and
metal-poor environment. Artisans make leaf armor by weaving forest leaves together and then treating them with a
special alchemical process. This results in a suit of armor that is as tough and flexible as leather, with considerably
less encumbrance. This results in a bonus to the armor’s maximum dexterity bonus and a reduction in both armor
check penalty and arcane spell failure. Leaf armor is available in both “springtime” (vivid green) and “autumn”
(red, orange, and yellow) styles. This camouflage pattern grants a wearer of leaf armor a +2 bonus to hide checks in
natural surroundings. -
IRONBARK ARMOR
What leaf armor is to nonmetallic armors, ironbark armor is to the metallic ones. Where normal armor uses metal
and leather, ironbark uses wood and leaf. The wood comes from the ironwood tree, and is then subjected to an
alchemical process similar to that used in leaf armor. The results are similar; a lighter weight and less restrictive suit
of armor. Ironbark armors gain the same bonus as leaf armors. The appearance of ironbark armor can vary, as the
wood can be treated to have any color or finish, but is quite often done in natural colors to provide a +2 bonus to
hide checks in natural surroundings. One a -

Blood Glass (Secrets of Xen’drik p. 147). Weapons deal +1 damage and are -10% weight, but are much more fragile: lower hardness and vulnerable to shatter.
Chameleon Leather (Serpent Kingdoms p. 148). Similar to leather, but grants a +2 circumstance bonus to Hide checks.
Chitine Web (FR Underdark p. 66). Similar to leather scale, but made out of spider-slobber. Decays unless you periodically add more spider-slobber.
Coral (A&EG p. 15). Roughly equivalent to splint or banded mail, but cheaper than stone plate.
Dendritic Crystal (A&EG p. 15/Races of Faerun p. 157). Crystal armor that grows on you… literally. In fact, the only way to take it off is to break out of it. Keep at least 5 pounds of it on you, and it grows back in 8 hours.
Dhenuka Hide (Oriental Adventures p. 75). Made out of rhino skin. Better AC than hide armor (comparable to scale mail), but MaxDex and ACP are worse.
Dreamhide (Secrets of Xen’drik p. 136). Made from the skin of dream serpents. Comparable to a chain shirt but has better MaxDex.
Dwarven Stone (A&EG p. 17). Similar to heavy plate, but better ACP.
Feather Cloak (Sandstorm p. 99). Similar to leather, but better in a hot environment.
Firebrass (Secrets of Xen’drik p. 147). Same properties as mithral but looks way more badass.
Mammoth Leather (Races of Stone p. 157). This would be much more badass than a chain shirt if it wasn’t Exotic.
Mud (Races of Faerun p. 158). Its… uh… really cheap? We tried to optimize it in this thread.
Nightscale (FR Underdark p. 66). Same armor bonus as leather but with a MaxDex bonus on steroids.
Scorpion Breastplate (Races of Eberron p. 171/Secrets of Xen’drik p. 136). Another member of the “chitin” family, this one comparable to scale mail.
Siege Beetle Chitin (MMV p. 153). Most obscure member of the “chitin” family, similar to scale mail but has better MaxDex, ACP, and weight. Even better, non-magical resistance to electricity/sonic 5.
Serpentscale Mail (Serpent Kingdoms p. 148). Slightly better (higher MaxDex) than typical scale mail.
Shapesand (Sandstorm p. 102). You can use several jugs of this to shape heavy plate or mechanus gear.
Sharkskin (Races of Faerun p. 158/Stormwrack p. 106). More badass version of studded leather.
Spidersilk (FR Underdark p. 66). One of the best replacements for studded leather. It’s exotic, but if you make it masterwork, the ACP is 0, and thus no penalty for non-proficiency.
Stonemail (FR Underdark p. 66). Similar to chainmail but requires Heavy Armor Proficiency, even though it weighs less than chainmail.
Stone Plate (Races of Stone p. 158). Roughly equivalent to banded mail… but still weighs less than chainmail. WTF?
Tentacled Hide (FR Underdark p. 67). What… I don’t even… how would you not trip over… uh… skip this one.
Thaalud Stone Armor (Anauroch: The Empire of Shade p. 108). Highest armor bonus in print (+12). Made out of a rare stone that is resistant to chips/fractures, and held together with metal rivets, although the description doesn’t say what kind of metal.
Thunderhide (Serpent Kingdoms p. 148). If only this armor was as good as its name… but not as good as leather scale or sharkskin.
Vine (Secrets of Xen’drik p. 136). Similar to chameleon leather, grants a +2 circumstance bonus to hide, but only in a jungle environment, and you need to water it or it withers away.
War Chitin (Secrets of Xen’drik p. 136). Heavier upgrade to the scorpion breastplate, same armor bonus as dragonhide/chitin half-plate but better MaxDex and ACP.
Wicker (A&EG p. 17). A more expensive version of mud, but gives you a +5 circumstance bonus on Hide checks while inside a Pier One Imports store.
