Mithral was produced through a process similar to that of steel-smelting. Items cast from mithral weighed only half as much as similar items forged from steel. Since pieces of armor made from this valuable metal were very light, they allowed the wearer to make better use of their natural agility and were less restrictive on spellcasting.
