//Note: This magic item was created by Ari Marmell
and appears in the module
[[http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/dndacc/9780786943609|
"Fortress of the Yuan-ti"]], as published by [[http://www.wizards.com/|

Nanietharil is one of the legacy items used by King Theron ("The Forgotten King")
and his entourage in the early days of the third age.  It was found by [[V2]] in
the year 1111, along with the staff [[Banrhialorg]], the sword [[Merthúvial]],
and the shield [[Aegis Inviolable]].

//Nanietharil// -- or "Gift of the Ancient foe" -- is a set of scale mail
made of overlapping layers of darkwood carved to resemble
leaves. Its dark hue is broken by a leaf-and-branch pattern in
dull gold.

**Nonlegacy Game Statistics**: //+1 darkwood scale mail//; cost
1,150 gp.  You can reroll one Survival check per day. The decision
to reroll must be made before the result of the original roll
is known.

**Omen**: When worn in a wooded or grassy area, the stitched
pattern shifts in shape and hue to match the native flora.

== Wielder Requirements ==

  * Proficient in Medium armor.
  * Any two of the following: Knowledge (nature) 4 ranks, Hide 4 ranks, Survival 4 ranks.
  * Only those of either elven or orc blood can use the abilities of the armor for 11th level and higher.((This entry may be a typo.  The module says "abilities of the //shield//", so it may be a cut-and-paste error from another legacy item.  However, I have chosen to keep it as is and replace the word "shield" with "armor"))
