They must expand or something cause otherwise they would choke her eventually

or maybe they were invisible and they appear when she's with Spyro for a while.

the bracer could have grow from her skin. But I think (possibly) foes put them on her in the Eternal Night before she got in the crystal.

@shadowskylander
I think that her bracers might just be something to make her look "cooler."

@shadowskylander I read somewhere that they were going to make a cut scene showing Cynder putting on the bracers again, but they ended up cutting it.

Just wondering.i don't think cynder had her bracers and neck things when she went into the crystal in eternal night.but when she came out in dotd she was wearing them.are they like magically invisible or did she grow them and even if she was wearing them in eternal night when she got older they would have gotten really small and probably wouldn't fit.can someone explain
