Warrior Bracers - Faux Leather

Black is the favored colour for many warriors and soldiers across the land. It's hard to stain, fearsome and distinctive in combat.
These Warrior Bracers are stylish and comfortable to wear.

Your prey is almost within range, tentative as she catches a whiff of something in the air. You have covered yourself in the dirt of the forest and smell more like pine than person, but the deer still seems uncertain.

She steps forward and you pull out an arrow from your quiver, loading your bow. This deer will feed your family for the rest of the week, so you are careful as you take aim. You mustn’t miss your target if you are to eat.

With a sharp ‘thwap!’ your arrow breezes past your Warrior Bracers, soaring through the air and finally hitting its mark, clean and perfect. A painless end to a noble creature...and your dinner.

“I held my breath as I watched her steady aim. Her movements as she placed the nock on the bowstring were graceful and subtle – like a hidden dance before the unnoticing prey. She had no ill will against her prey. No disdain nor malevolence. To her, it was just a means to serve her community. As the arrow darted off, the bowstring struck her woven leather bracers. She calmly brushed it off and gave me a calm smile. I, too, was struck.”

The Ranger Bracers from Epic Armoury are made of diagonally woven leather beneath a plain frame. Ornamented leather straps provide easy adjustment for a comfortable fit on the lower arm. The bracers are designed to be donned as part of the Ranger Complete Armour Set, but they can also be used independently or in combination with pieces from other armour designs.

"And so I said to Olaf, I said, there are two wolves inside of you and do you know what he said? He said 'Gunnar, you're still on that dumb analogy and I keep telling you their on my forearms!"
