Drow Adamantine Chain +5 is enchanted and magical elven chain mail +5 which bestows an armor class of 0 upon the wearer. Like Drow Elven Chain, this armor can be worn by stealthy characters, but with a penalty to their thieving abilities, and it does not disable spellcasting; unlike that one, however, it does not offer bonuses to magic resistance or the time it needs to cast a spell. Like all armor made of adamantine, it will dissolve to dust if exposed to sunlight.

The sturdy craftsmanship of the drow allows them to design many beautiful yet utilitarian goods. Among these is drow chain mail, which is so finely wrought that it can be worn under normal clothing without revealing its presence. This and its lightness allows it to be worn by Thieves and Fighter/Mages with few restrictions.

This item, like most drow equipment, is created using adamantine, an alloy of adamantite that quickly turns to dust if removed from the Underdark.
