- Cherry Bomb Punching Gaunlets
-
- When the Heavyweight Ogre Boxing Federation was created, attendance
- at the matches was disappointingly low. The problem was that ogres
- were just too tough and the matches would always last the full 15
- rounds and there were never any knockouts.
- Dr. Shawn Fusse came to the rescue of the federation. He developed
- a gelatinous fluid called Zap that could be permanently adhered to
- leather.
- When Zap is subjected to a severe concussive force, it explodes with
- the equivalent power of one pound of TNT.
- When Dr. Fusse applied Zap to the leather gaunlets used by the
- H.O.B.F., attendance rose quickly as knockouts and occasional
- decapitations become common.
- The gaunlets have enough Zap on them to deliver explosive punches
- for about one year. For the right price, they can be obtained
- throught the black market.
- Cherry Bomb Punching Gaunlets are given to every ogre fighter at the
- age of adulthood, and are considered to be an ogre's closest friend
- next to fleas.
