Line 16:
** The Raikage can use his lightning aura to create lightning shields, among other things.
* In ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', there is Risho, the demon ninja with power over rock that Kuwabara fought in the Dark Tournament. His main attack was to create a rock armor then tackle his opponent.
** And for the armor-out-of-thin-air example, we have Sensui, who can use his Holy Light Energy to create two special sets of armor.

* ''[[Dungeons
* Flaming Armor and Lightning Armor from ''[[GURPS]]: Magic''.
* ''[[Forgotten Realms]]'' has spell "Rainbow Shield" allowing to use any attack spell this way (Fireball to more or less fire shield, Lightning bolt to lightning shield, etc).
* ''[[Exalted]]'': Some Charms and Martial Arts (especially Dragon-Blooded ones) can create them (Fire-Aspects are appropriately [[Wreathed in Flames]]). Solar Exalted can create shiny awesome armor made of sunlight, while Abyssal ones can create similar armor made of darkness.
* ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' has a few examples, notably [http://magiccards.info/scans/en/mr/104.jpg Armor of Thorns] from the ''Mirage'' expansion.
* ''[[Changeling: The Lost]]'' has the Contract of Elements, which has a clause (read: sub-power) allowing the changeling to wreath themselves in an armor of whatever element he bought the Contract in. Not only does it protect against attacks, it damages anyone who tries to touch him.

* ''[[Dragon Age]]'' and its sequel both feature a "rock armor" spell to do this.
* ''[[Gaia Online|zOMG!]]'': the Rock Armor ring
* Kratos in the first ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]]'' had Wrath of the Gods, which grants him a full set of Greek armor made of lightning.
* There are a bunch of powersets in ''[[City of Heroes]]'' which allow for elemental armors, including Stone, Fire and Ice, as well as the more exotic (Dark, Energy and Electricity). Each powerset has multiple types of armor with different effects; for example, Frozen Armor protects against physical damage, Glacial Armor protects against energy, and Wet Ice helps against status effects. In the old days, you could only have one active at a time; that quickly changed.
