Hmm...That is a good basis to start or maybe even divided by half 4/4
with some "unusual" properties. However creating this vest, should
take perhaps a powerful enchanter, and also a skilled armorer.
Heck I may even rule that it has to be bound with karma. It all depends
on how powerful and unique you want it to be. Heh..if I were the GM
I would let you create the armor, and then several slightly upset dragons
would come looking for you to retreive their "property" from the hands
of a puny human. <EGMG>
