Goldbeetle Silk[edit]

This very unique fabric is made from hundreds or thousands of rare beetle living remote areas. This gives the fabric a very unique 'golden' color. The special qualities of the fabric is directly due to the peculiarity of the beetle it is made of. The gold beetles, and the fabric itself, channel ki and positive energy with high efficiency.

Only a weapon made of fabric can be made of goldbeetle silk such as a whip. Such a weapon automatically gain the Ki Focus enhancement with no extra cost. In addition the weapon can be used to deal lethal damage with no penalty, always count as a Monk weapon for class features and in the case of whip is no longer impaired by armor or natural armor. If the weapon is given the Ki Focus enhancement, it deals damage as if it was one size category larger. Finally a goldbeetle silk's weapon can be used to deliver touch spell or supernatural ability which deal positive energy (such as a cure spell or a paladin's lay on hand) as if it was Spelltouch weapon.

An armor made of the extremely rare fabric shows very different qualities. Only an armor made of fabric can be made out of goldbeetle silk. Firstly a light armor made of the fabric does not count as armor for the purpose of a Monk's class feature, although she must be proficient in the armor as normal. The fabric is excellent at dissipating positive energy, granting Energy Hindrance 50% to positive energy damage (but not healing). It also grant immunity to the Curative and Disruption enhancement to the wearer.

Goldbeetle Silk has 5 hit points per inch of thickness and hardness 5.
