You can't even tell you're wearing it.
Lartasian silk is an incredibly lightweight and soft substance that is also incredibly string, to the point where a knife has trouble penetrating cloth made of the material.
It is harvested from a species of sentient blue spiders. The Spinwix spider is known for its love of light hearted conversation while it weaves piles and piles of multicolored silk. If the conversation is particularly enjoyable, the spider often gifts the silk to whomever it has been talking to, sometimes as is, and sometimes it will even offer to weave a simple sheet of cloth from the silk to be altered and fitted as the recipient sees fit.
Skill
it takes great skill to create such a cloth before one even considers making something from it. The spider has no problem as it has an intimate knowledge of how It's silk works. The silk is the primary export of The House of Spiders, one of the most prolific Daimyo in Lartasia .Manic Mutation
Spinwix are a product of Universal Mania and have mutated in many ways. The spiders produce significantly more silk than they should and almost constantly need spin or suffer pain. They don't develop spinners till adulthood and spend most of their life as young gathering food to bring back to the den to feed the broodmother.Methods of Pontification
Getting the silk is easiest when talking two spiders that make it. Certain conversations are more likely to gain the gift of silk than others. The more profound, philosophical, and deep the conversation, more likely you are to receive the gift. Comedy has also been shown to be a favorite of the spiders.While the spiders do enjoy conversation, one should never approach one without invitation. The venom is so toxic it can kill a man in a matter of seconds. The spiders are also very skittish, as they know how valuable what they make is to the people of Lartasia.
