The '''Loin-girder''' is a recurring accessory in the {{DQSeries}}. It is a waistguard covered in monster fangs and claws that helps make the wearer more sturdy against enemy attacks.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ10}}===
The Loin-girder has a max HP bonus of +10, a {{Style}} bonus of +1, and increases the wearer's Weight by 15. It also gives the wearer a 50% chance to be under the effects of Heavy Charge at the start of battle, which will increase their Weight even further, giving them a better chance to protect weaker allies from being targeted by enemies and preventing the wearer from being moved by enemy attacks themselves as well. The belt can be received as a reward for defeating [[King Hydra]] in the Magic Labyrinth.
* In the ''[[Dragon Quest X Offline|Offline]]'' version of the game, the Loin-girder now has a max HP and {{Defence}} bonus of +10 and a {{Charm}} bonus of +1. With accessory synthesis, the max HP or Defence bonus can be increased further.

The quick recipe for the loin-girder can be received from [[Medal King|King Flaminio]] in exchange for 2 [[mini medal]]s onboard the Stonecloud, while the classic and luxury recipes can be dropped rarely by [[Grinade]]s.

==={{DQH2}}===
The Loin-girder increases the wearer's resistance to quake and roar effects by 50%, reaching to a total of 100% once it is fully upgraded. It will also give the wearer a +30 bonus to max HP, as well. The belt can be received as a reward by exchanging 5 [[mini medal]]s one time or it can be dropped by [[Golem]]s and [[Stone guardian]]s.

==Etymology==
The loin-girder's English name originates from the phrase "[[Wiktionary:gird up one's loins|to gird up one's loins]]", an idiom which means to prepare oneself for something demanding or difficult. The phrase originated from the King James version of the Bible in which it literally referred to usage of a belt to keep a person's tunic or cloak on for ease of movement.
