Tuesday Magic Item – Roqard’s Gauntlet of Challenges

As Roqard and his clique swept through the halls of court, scattering courtiers and servants in front of them who reformed in worried groups in their wake.

Roqard at last found his prey, the young Chevalier D’Jaq who was chatting with one of the Queen’s handmaids next to the Seven Mermaid Fountain.  He realized too late that he was being stalked.  He looked around for a way out, but unless he retreated through the fountain, he was trapped.

“I have heard that you have insulted my prowess, Chevalier,” Roqard said and snapped his glove across the young man’s face.  “Meet me on the field of Honour at dawn tomorrow or be branded a liar and a coward.”

The young man felt the sting of the glove and debated if the shame of dishonour was a greater fear than Roqard’s blade.  “At dawn,” he agreed.

Roqard’s Gauntlet of Challenges

These exquisite gloves are usually made of silk reinforced with fine leather and silver thread.  They are beautiful yet practical wear for a duelist.

Back from GenCon, news and such soonish

Arrived safely back from GenCon last night.  Had a great time, played many games and met lots of wonderful gamer people.

Still recovering and catching up at work.  Hope to have news and pictures from the Con up later this week.  (Part one can be found here.)

Should have a magic item posted later today.

Hope all of you fine people are well.
