The highly religeous Rakanus clan of dwarves developed a form of full plate designed specifically for the squat and robust dwarven body. The interlocking plates of the armor are ingeneously designed so that the wearer is ensconsed in steel from head to toe, with no need of chain-mail. The armor allows for ease of movement as though it were field-plate, and each piece of the armor is attached to its neighbor, as part of the interlocking nature of the plates. The armor gives the dwarf wearing it 10 full points of armor.
Several of these suits of Rakanus plate, including the originals, were tamped on the Holy Forge of Galgiran, engendering them with a +1 bonus, which applied to Saving Throws versus physical spells and breath weapons, as well as Armor Class.
