Through ancient secrets and master craftsmanship, elves have made Elven Armor that more easily allows for spellcraft. This special armor script is only available on armor crafted of eahnor, vaalorn, (these two available off the shelf) or high steel (special releases) and only on studded leather or heavier armors. This armor was released at Duskruin Arena in February 2021 at The Vaalin Rose by GameMaster Oscuro. The messaging was written by GameMaster Valyrka and GameMaster Xynwen.

Tier 1/Off the Shelf

Analyze

You analyze your vaalorn plate armor and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

This is tier 1 Elven Armor.

Tier
  1: Magic Affinity - Spells cast to permanently improve this armor, such as Enchant or Ensorcell, are more easily incorporated into it.  Those spells gain a +10 bonus per tier to success rolls.

Verbs: bow, clean, push, pull, remove, rub, tap, wear

You may alter the vaalorn plate armor to change its description, but it must NOT ever imply that it was not originally crafted by elves - it was.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the vaalorn plate armor for you.
