Robe

A robe was a long garment that was usually made of cloth. Many spellcasters and scholars, such as wizards, wore robes that were enchanted with magical powers.

Description
Robes usually started at shoulder height, and ended close to the ankles. New, standard robes cost around 1 gp, and weighed 4 pounds (1.8 kilograms). Extremely rare and enchanted robes could cost several tens of thousands of gold pieces.

Zakharan robes were known as aba or jellaba, the latter being worn during cold nights.

Powers
Robes could be enchanted with a myriad of different powers, from protecting the owner, to seeing invisible beings.
