Dragon Age/Mass Effect versions of Blood Dragon Armor
Blood Dragon Armor is unlocked with the Blood Dragon Armor DLC. The DLC's code is handed out to buyers of a new copy of Dragon Age: Origins. The code is only redeemable once.
It is mainly a silver and white in color with a crimson dragon painted upon it, much like the Dragon Age: Origins logo. It requires 38 strength to wear and is made of silverite. When downloaded, you will only have the Breastplate in your inventory. Due to its strength requirement, purchasing the remaining pieces of the set at the beginning of the game (if you have the gold to do so) isn't recommended as it would just take up space in your inventory. The helmet, boots, and gloves can be bought from Bodahn or Sandal at the party camp.
The Blood Dragon Armor does not import to Awakening.
Once downloaded, the Mass Effect 2 version of Dragon Blood Armor will be available for download through the DLC menu in that game.

Exploits and Bugs
- If you wish to acquire duplicates of each piece of armor (except the Chest Plate) disable the DLC, force save, renable the DLC, and the dwarf should sell you 2 of each. (PC only)
- If you use the Dwarven Noble origin story, there is a chance in some versions of the game (such as, potentially, the Steam Collector's Edition) that the chest plate and all other DLC items will be stripped from your character towards the end of the story, and never returned. To fix this, you may use the above exploit to regain your items. Once again, simply disable the DLC, force load, save, re-enable the DLC, and load again. Your items should now be returned to your inventory. This bug is fixed in patch 1.02 of Dragon Age: Origins though if you patch after the armor is taken away, you'll need to use the above method to get it back.
- The chest piece texture for the Blood Dragon Armor does not render properly on a female elf. This bug has been fixed in Blood Dragon Armor v1.1

Trivia
- Even though the armor was by a Nevarran(which is human) dragon hunter, its design is Dwarvan.
