Dragonskin Bracers

The Dragonskin Bracers are a powerup in Hexen. They appear as a pair of silvery bracers with a purple glowing aura. Unlike the other armor items in Hexen, they may be carried for later use, and when used, grant the player an additional four points to their armor class. Multiple bracers can be used at once, but the player's enhanced armor class is capped at a maximum of four more than the character's fully armored AC without the bracers. This maximum is therefore 20 for the fighter, 18 for the cleric and 16 for the mage.
