Plate gloves cast in bronze, warmer in colour than iron and softer under a blow. The knuckle plates are a single piece rather than articulated, so the fingers close about as far as a fist and no further.
Entry
The middle rung of the hand ladder: two points turned aside where iron turns three and leather turns one. Worn or carried in Rare Icon, and drawn for every direction and every action like everything else in the starting wardrobe.

Chronicle
What a militia armourer makes when the smelter will not run hot enough for iron and the muster is next week. Bronze dents where iron would turn a blade, and a dented plate can be beaten flat again by anybody with a hammer — which is why the same pair often outlives three of its owners' swords. Soldiers who can afford better still keep a pair for drill.
