# Mithral Armor
*Uncommon*
Mithral is a light, flexible metal. A mithral chain shirt or breastplate can be worn under normal clothes.
If the armor normally imposes disadvantage on Dexterity ([Stealth](3-Mechanics/CLI/rules/skills.md#Stealth)) checks or has a Strength requirement, the mithral version of the armor doesn't.
