Cestus
Equipment, Weapon
A weighted fighting gauntlet worn on the fist.
Also called Cesti
From the book
Cesti are fist weapons sold as a pair for 5 S.P. under miscellaneous weaponry; each weighs 2 lb., deals 1-6 damage, and needs a Strength of 10.
They matter most to boxers. A character with Boxing skill doubles all attacks made with the fists, and while a boxer normally may parry only unarmed foes, wearing metal cesti lets the boxer parry armed opponents as well.
