List of all weapons & other items |
Gauntlet of Plun-Darr is a metal glove that acts as defensive shield as well as a scabbard for the Sword of Plun-Darr. Along with the sword, it is the main weapon wielded by Mumm-Ra.
The Gauntlet has three cavities to hold three of the four Power Stones. The stones give the Gauntlet phenomenal power. In this charged state, it is able to form the mighty Armor of Plun-Darr around its owner, protecting him from even the most powerful enemy fire as well as granting him immense strength.
Centuries ago, Mumm-Ra, wanting to attain control over the entire universe, consulted the Ancient Spirits of Evil to help him achieve ultimate power. Under their orders, Mumm-Ra destroyed the Star of Plun-Darr and its remains were then forged into the Sword of Plun-Darr and the Gauntlet of Plun-Darr by a Blacksmith possessed by the Ancient Spirits themselves.
Upon seeing Mumm-Ra's ruthlessness and insatiable lust for power, his two most trusted commanders, Leo and Panthera decided to stop him. They gathered the debris left from the forging of the Sword of Plun-Darr and employed the same Blacksmith to forge them another sword and gauntlet, thus the Sword of Omens and the Gauntlet of Omens were born. Embedding the War Stone into the Sword and the Gauntlet, Leo was able to defeat Mumm-Ra even though the latter had the remaining three Power Stones in his possession.
