Artwork from Final Fantasy II.
Extraordinarily beautiful full-body armor that uses layer upon layer of plates forged from mythril produced in Eisenberg. This armor can withstand slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning attacks by exploiting the repulsive force between two separate pieces of mythril steel when subjected to an impact.

Template:Sideicon
Armor that shines in a beautiful silver hue. Similar to other equipment made of mythril, this piece of armor is light and easy to handle. Mythril has been known as magical silver due to its ability to retain its luster, a trait it shares with gold. Since ancient times, the dwarves have associated the gold they mine with the sun, while they link mythril to the moon. That association, however, gradually made its way to the human world, and explains why the mythril armor sports the carving of a moon on its surface.

Etymology
The word "mythril" or "mithril" is a metal found in many fantasy worlds. It was originally introduced by the fantasy writings of J. R. R. Tolkien, being present in his Middle-earth. It resembles silver but is stronger than steel, and much lighter in weight than either. The author first wrote of it in The Lord of the Rings, and it is retrospectively mentioned in the third, revised edition of The Hobbit in 1966. In the first 1937 edition, the mail shirt given to Bilbo is described as being made of "silvered steel". The name mithril comes from two words in Sindarin—mith, meaning "grey" or "mist", and ril meaning "glitter".
