List of gauntlets

Selection, specifications and flavour texts by Fander Treespook.

gauntlets	level	value	armour class	flavour text	size
Goatskin Gloves	1	25	2	Lately, many of these simple, yet functional gloves have hit the market. The protection they offer is minimal and the quality is rather poor, but they are so cheap you can ditch them as they wear out and buy new instead of repairing them.	1x2
Sharkskin Gloves	5	250	5	The tough skin of sharks makes for good protection. In addition, shark skin is very rough and a blow upon unprotected flesh from a fist wearing one of these gloves, will most likely draw blood.	1x2
Wyvern Gauntlets	9	400	7	These black gauntlets are of trollish make. They have iron spikes at the knuckles. Unfortunately, wyverns are becoming more uncommon and these gauntlets will be harder to make as the population is lowered.	1x2
Plated Gauntlets	14	550	9	These mail gauntlets have plates of kergar covering the back of the hand and the fingers for extra protection. They are a bit clumsy to wear, but will allow a good grip on your weapon. You didn't plan on slicing garlic with them, did you?	1x2
Mogred Gauntlets	20	700	11	The process of achieving the suppleness needed for the mogred hide to be used for gauntlets is a secret heavily guarded by the Timberfall tanners. Needless to say, there is no better hand protection to be bought in Karigor or Jadame.	1x2
Vayu artifact	20	20000	15	Melnir, a 7th century Gryphonheart court magician supposedly made these gauntlets for himself to make his studies of griffins a bit more easy, as well as helping him in keeping his concentration on the task while airborne (+12 Armour Class, of Air magic, +30 Mind Resistance).	1x2
Minjekawun relic	30	15000	11	Crafted at Kelebrim's Foundry, these gauntlets were made especially for an elf named Longfellow. As his name describes, this elf was tall, but he was also thin, very thin. Muscles just wouldn't grow on him. His mother, having a favour due from the queen at the time, for saving her life when sick, requested these gauntlets as payment. Of course, a mother also wants her child to be best amongst his friends, and honorable, thus the 'extra' enchantments (+8 Armour Class, +40 Might, +5 Pathfinding. -5 Stealing, -5 Disarm Trap).	1x2
