Dragonscale Shield

The Dragonscale Shield is a formidable piece of armor crafted from the durable scaleplate of the legendary Wyrm of Chaos. Despite originating from a wyrm rather than a traditional dragon, the scaleplate is large and sturdy enough to be repurposed as a shield for human use. Its resilience and imposing appearance have earned it the popular moniker of the Dragonscale Shield.   During the final battle of the Draconian War, the formidable warrior Draco Null, aided by several powerful Ancient Dragonkin, executed a daring maneuver to sever a scaleplate from the Wyrm of Chaos. This audacious feat exposed a vulnerable spot at the base of the wyrm's neck, as borewyrm scaleplates are incapable of regenerating.   Draco cherished the scaleplate as a symbol of his triumph and transformed it into a sturdy shield, which served as his steadfast protection until his passing. This remarkable shield is currently on display at the Dragonguard Headquarters. Although it is occasionally utilized for its original purpose, its substantial weight and unwieldy nature make it impractical for regular use.

Significance

After the legendary Wyrm of Chaos had his scaleplate forcefully removed, the fearsome creature known for causing havoc and destruction, surrendered, thereby putting an end to the brutal and long-standing conflict known as the Draconian War. Following the wyrm's surrender, Draco Null claimed the scaleplate as a triumphant trophy and repurposed it as a formidable shield, showcasing it as a symbol of his remarkable victory.
