This is a quick extract of the drow matron armor (or the Valsharess as she is also called). It is usable by human and elf females only, sorry.
Zip File Contents:
Matron.hak (everything you need ie: 2da's, mdl's & plt's)
Matron Armor Test.mod (test module showing some variations of the armor)
matron armor read me.txt (this file)
Special Thanks to Frazer for his re-texture of the original matron skin. His original work is here: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=hakpaks.Detail&id=4501
Enjoy,
Elorfin Endorfin
Update 7/25/2006:
=================
**Removed Subfolder "Matron Extras" contents.
**Added Head for elf only (pfe0_head017.mdl & pfe0_head017.plt)
**Updated all PLT files that were re-done by Invisig0th (thanks man - looks much better now)
**Added icon files for pelvis and chest for the new armor as well.
**Updated the jpg to show new head and plt changes (this will be also uploaded to vault for the screenshot picture)
**Modified the sample module to display (ie: show off) the new plt files.
**Modified the sample module to have the 4 NPC's as all "Commoner" faction rather than a mix with "Hostile" in there (was interesting if nothing else)
**Modified the sample module again after realizing that to most people, the heads were missing unless the had Montlethia's Heads in the override directory (It uses the new head on the elves, but not the human)

Hi, Elorfin Endorfin
If you want I can give you her head as half-elf with headgear and one without.
I think if I give them to someone, it should be you.Just leave a message here or send me an E-mail.
Thanks again for your good work.

Good that someone came up with the idea to make her!! I like her more than boring Aribeth. It's good to be bad!
After re-reading my comments, I realized that I wasn't real clear on the head addition.
The update contains the Matron's Head as an Elf-only addition. Looks nice, except that the plt does NOT accomodate for the hair color. It uses skin color for the hair.
Sorry this hak isn't perfect guys. I did state that this was a "quick extract". If I get more time one day, I'll go back in and re-do it all. But for now, you guys should have enough to keep you happy for a bit :)
SPECIAL THANKS TO Invisig0th for his comments and additions/changes to the files. He remade the plt's, added the icons, and made me aware of all the fighting going on in the module /doh!
Here's a re-cap of what was changed or added:

Its about time someone did this. Well done mate. Keep up the good work.
OK, I've re-exported the bmp to remove the white artifacts around the problem areas in the greyscale PLT. I am going to start on reapplying metal/cloth/leather, but I have some suggestions first. How can I contact you? _________________________ - Invisig0th
