Gauntlets of Fumbling: These gauntlets may be of supple leather or heavy protective material suitable for use with armor (ring, scale, chain, etc.). In the former instance, these will appear to be gauntlets of dexterity; in the latter case, they will appear to be gauntlets of ogre power. They will perform according to every test as if they were gauntlets of dexterity or ogre power until the wearer finds himself under attack or in a life and death situation. At that time, the curse is activated, and the wearer will become very clumsy, with a 50% chance each round of dropping anything held in either hand—not from both singly. The gauntlets will also lower overall Dexterity by 2 points. Once the curse is activated, the gloves can be removed only by means of a remove curse spell or a wish.
