In-game description
"Bracers are thick bands of metal or leather that are strapped, belted, or tied to a character's forearm. Generally, the magic that is instilled in bracers is good only during combat, since most bracers help to protect the wearer from injury, or improve chances to strike at an opponent. Exceptions do exist, though such specialized items are rare at best."
