Bracers of Strength
Bear-etched bracers bolster raw might and let their wearer crush a grappled foe hard enough to squeeze the breath from their lungs.
Etchings of powerful bears decorate these brass bracers. You gain a +3 item bonus to Athletics checks and a +2 circumstance bonus to Athletics checks to lift a heavy object, Escape, and Force Open. When you invest the bracers, you either increase your Strength modifier by 1 or increase it to +4, whichever would give you a higher value.
