Epic Armoury’s Black/Desert Beige Claw Bracer is a leather gauntlet designed to protect the lower arm with a good measure of old-fashioned and brutally offensive spikes. Constructed of overlapping plates connected by leather ties, move freely while still benefiting from complete coverage from the back of the hand to the elbow. Of course, this armour is not without style! Flexible leather ‘claws’ adorn the back of the hand like claws, while each leather plate has its own unique and spiked flair. A desert beige plate at the elbows also features runic drawings--perhaps infused with the powers of necromancy.

The Claw Bracer is made from full-grain leather that has been vegetable tanned. Attach the Claw Bracer to your right arm using the leather straps around the elbow, forearm and wrist. A soft leather strap is also tightened around the hand, with a loop fitted around the middle finger.

It can be worn with Epic Armoury’s matching Dark Elf armours or on its own.

Please note that this gauntlet is designed for right-hand use.

This phrase was oft used by the drow when teaching their apprentice assassins. However, it did very little to protect them from the blind warrior monks the humans eventually unleashed upon them.
But the Drow learn and adapt. They know that the best things to steal from your enemies are first their ideas and then their tools.
