Special RPG like gear with passives

Is it possible to Make armor that is made Out of Special Gems or some Special metal that gives the wearer increased movement Speed or a burn on attack ?

Yes, with a dfhack script called item-syndrome for armor and spatter-add for weapons.

so only with dfhack ? Because I was thinking of making some mod(never modded df before) that adds in metals, some workshops and then some sort of list with equipement they could Make.

You don't need dfhack for most of those features, but the resulting armor won't have "magical" properties without dfhack scripts, it'll just be normal armor within the parameters the RAWs let you set.

Start by modding in some new metals, and be able to mine those and use them as normal. It's the best place to start. Then go for making new reaction and/or custom workshops. You can use the existing custom workshops and reactions that go with them as the basis.

item-trigger is the new script for both of those.
