Vividha Vastra ~O Myriad-colored Virtue, Become My Shield~
The beautiful clothing worn by Draupadi. When Yudhisthira lost her to a crooked dice game, Duryodhan and Karna ordered the brutish Dushasana to have her be stripped in public. However, the folds of Draupadi's saree could not be unbound no matter how much and how long Dushasana tugged — inexhaustible and unyielding. Some versions say that this was a miracle granted by Draupadi's dear friend Krishna Govinda, but in truth it was merely Draupadi's own Divine nature crystalizing her virtue to protect herself.
Vividha Vastra is a defensive Noble Phantasm with two forms: passive form and active form. In it's passive state, Vividha Vastra manifests by having Draupadi be unable to be stripped or even touched by her enemies. Flames emit from her clothing to protect Draupadi if a fool dares to touch her; the more she hates them, the stronger the flames.
But when activated, Vividha Vastra allows Draupadi to extend her sari indefinitely; essentially making Draupadi into a roll of cloth. Draupadi can unroll the cloth into whatever shape she pleases — though, a multilayered charkavyuha is her go-to choice. The cloth is self-regenerative, capable of healing itself when damaged or disintegrated. Some sections of the cloth can even be booby-trapped; spouting flames when hostiles step near it. In other words, Drapadi can create a maze-like shield with this cloth.
This Noble Phantasm can be given to other people.
