The care ring is a recurring accessory in the Dragon Quest series. Its name is a play on the word "caring".
Characteristics
The ring consists of a beautiful blue band with gold edges decorated with pearls and a light blue lozenge-cut gemstone in the middle, flanked by a design of two doves. In the original Japanese games, the care ring actually refers to two different accessories since their effects are very different but they both use the same design.

The care ring can be crafted using the Fun-Size Forge after finding the recipe book "Little Lifesavers", which can be found in Heliodor Castle during Act II. If two care rings +3 are equipped at once, it is possible to become completely resistant to the enemy's spell and skill-sealing abilities.
