Magic being hampered by iron isn't something D&D came up with; it's a common point in a lot of myths, fairy tales and fantasy fiction. Also, most of your legendary/fairy tale spellcasters are witches; women didn't tend to wear a lot of armor, period.The Brothers of the Church in The Kingdoms of Bone and Thorn series by Greg Keyes can use magic (the sedos power they get from walking saint's fanes), and they have no problem wearing full plate armor.Most of the Drageareans in the various Jhereg books are sorcerers to some greater or lesser degree. They have no problem with armor. Vlad, a human, wears armor from time to time, and he's both a sorcerer and a witch.Rabbit, the young wizard in the Borderlands novels by Lorna Freeman, is a soldier before he's a wizard and he wears armor just fine.</blockquote>
