Ebony Mail (Skyrim)

A piece of armour obtained during the Boethiah daedric shrine quest. You are required to kill the owner of the armour (As part of the quest) to obtain it.

It is a variant of Ebony armour which offers two useful abilities. It allows the wearer to move more quietly which is always useful for players who wear heavy armour and wish to sneak behind enemies. It also has a poison effect which causes 5 points of poison damage per second to enemies within a certain distance of the player. (Does this hurt non-hostile npc's?)
