Droven plate mail is a type of body armor that appears in dNetHack and notdNetHack. It is always made of shadowsteel, and appears as crested black plate when unidentified, or as crested plate mail if the character is blind.

Generation

Droven plate mail is not randomly generated. Drow Rangers generate with droven plate mail in place of the role's standard cloak of displacement.

Several monsters generate with droven plate mail:

  • Stjarna-alfr are always generated with droven plate mail that has the symbol of Eilistraee engraved on it.
  • A hedrow blademaster is always generated with droven plate mail that has the symbol of his house engraved on it.
  • Drow matrons, drow matron-mothers, and yochlol generated in unearthly drow form are always generated with droven plate mail that has the symbol of Lolth engraved on it.
  • Myrkalfar matrons are always generated with non-cursed +8 droven plate mail that is made of black plastic and has the Last Bastion's symbol engraved on it.
  • Driders and sprow that are generated on the home level of any drow-related quest other than the Drow Healer quest are created with cursed erosion-proofed +3 droven plate mail that has the symbol of the character's starting house engraved on it. Other driders have a 25 chance of generating with droven plate mail.
  • Deminymphs that are randomly generated outside of the Drow Healer quest or the Lost Cities have an effective 1320 chance of being given a madperson kit with droven plate mail that has an enchantment of +1 to +3, a random drow house's symbol and a 140 chance to be made into an artifact. The symbol has a 110 chance of belonging to Pen'a, a 310 chance of being Eilistraee's symbol, and will otherwise belong to a random fallen drow house.
  • Giant spiders and cave lizards have a 1100 chance of generating with droven plate mail fitted to their body shape, while large cave lizards have a 3100 chance of generating with fitted droven plate mail.
  • Dokkalfar eternal matriarchs in the Anachrononaut quest are generated with cursed +9 droven plate mail that have the symbol of their house engraved on it, while other dokkalfar eternal matriarchs are generated with blessed +9 droven plate mail that is made of black mithril and has the symbol of their house engraved on it.

Description

While worn, droven plate mail grants 6 base AC, 6 DR and MC1. As shadowsteel armor, droven chain mail has a chance of evaporating in lit squares, with the chance reduced if the wearer has MC3 or invisibility - erodeproofed droven plate mail will repair partial evaporation while the wearer remains in an unlit square.
