The brave is a barbarian or bloodrager brought up in the way of the body. A tough upbringing and innumerable skirmishes have made him a warrior of unmatched resilience. A barbarian brave's body has a sheen of perfection that marks him as one of the warrior elite, while bloodrager braves often lean more towards a monstrous look.

As long as he is not wearing any armor, a brave gains a circumstance bonus to natural armor equal to his Constitution bonus. He can use shields normally and the bonus stacks with both natural armor and with enchantment bonuses to natural armor. Note that temporary Constitution modifiers, such as those from bear's endurance, do not increase the armor class bonus from this ability.
