These bracers consist of silver plates that can be attached to a person’s forearms by ornate leather straps. An etching on their surface echoes the swirls within crystal shards set just above the wrists.

Bracers of wind continuously emit a faint breeze, occasionally billowing your cloak or hair. Upon their activation, the winds around you swell and surge, imposing a –2 penalty on ranged attacks made against you, as if fired in a strong wind (DMG 95).
Siege weapons, thrown boulders, and the like are unaffected. This effect does not stack if the wind in the area is already strong or greater. In addition, when you use a ranged weapon, you gain a +1 competence bonus on the attack roll. These effects function continuously while the bracers are activated.
You can suppress the winds about you by uttering “calm” in Auran, although doing so also suppresses the benefits the bracers bestow. You can reactivate the bracers by saying “zephyr” while focusing on the etchings of the silver plates.
