The '''magic armour''' is a recurring suit of armor in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] series. As its name suggests, it is designed to guard the wearer against magical onslaughts.
 
==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 gold belt. In earlier depictions, the magic armour is seen 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.
