  Blood Dragon Armor
Commissioned by an infamous Nevarran dragon hunter, this armor was crafted in a time when dragons had almost been hunted to extinction. Infused with their blood, the armor gained notoriety after the hunter died at the hands of men rather than the dragons it was designed to protect him from.
  • Grants exceptional protection in combat
  • Armor will be usable in BioWare's upcoming science fiction epic, Mass Effect 2
