Description
These robes are sometimes considered the pinnacle of the weaver's art. The process of creating them consists of carefully treating the fabrics involved with beggar's lye and colouring them with dyes infused with iridescent gloaming. The magisters of Highguard are particularly fond of these beautiful vestments, and use only the richest dyes to combine with the finest and most subtle decoration. In Urizen the robes are delicately shaded and sometimes simply called Robes of the Magi, although even there the traditional name is used more commonly.
In the Brass Coast by contrast these robes are usually bright, clashing colours and fine fabrics with beautiful dragonbone decorations, while those volhov lucky enough to own an ashen mantle prefer those made from fine waterproofed lamb's wool.
For many magicians an ashen mantle and a Staff of the Magi are an obvious combination, greatly increasing their spellcasting abilities.
Rules

- Effect: You gain 4 personal mana.
- Materials: Crafting an ashen mantle requires twenty-eight measures of iridescent gloaming, twelve measures of dragonbone, ten measures of beggar's lye and six ingots of ambergelt. It takes one month to make one of these items.
