The Magic armour is armour in the series. It is designed to guard the wearer against attack magic.

Characteristics

The magic armour consists of a blue breastplate with curved pauldrons and ornate gold filigree and edges, along with a dark orange fauld with gold edges that fully encircles the wearer's waist attached to a grey belt with a gold buckle. In some early pieces of artwork, the magic armour is worn with a long cape, a bronze coronet with a blue gemstone around the wearer's forehead, and blue vambraces with the same design as the breastplate, and has a jewel on the belt. It is not as heavy as some other suits of armour, allowing it to be used by a wider range of characters, including some spellcasters.

Starting with IX, the breastplate's colour was changed to a dark shade of purple. In X, the armour is now divided into torso and leg pieces, with the fauld also coloured purple, as well. In some games such as X Offline and Walk, the torso armour is worn with a pair of gauntlets.
