Description: When worn, this belt creates a dense curtain of air around the
wearer. This curtain, or barrier provides superior protection against breath
attacks as well as magic. By the scorch marks on the worn leather, it is obvious
that this belt has been worn at least once against a dragon.

Girdle of Bluntness: 'Destroyer of the Hills'
Description: Having lost friends and loved ones to a series of raids by hill
giants, Garrar The Powerful made it his mission to cleanse his homeland of their

King Violos used it when leading an expedition against marsh trolls. He'd been
severely sickened the past winter and was no longer the healthy man he once was.

confidence in their king once more.

as a frost giant.

Location: On a Demon Knight in the Kou-Toan Tunnels (Western Tunnels of the Underdark). Place an animal (use summons) at the base of the Demogorgon Statue.
Comment: Used to make the Crom Faeyr, but a good belt on its own. Luckily with TOB, the gap is filled when it has been used to make the Crom.
Item Code: BELT08
Description: This plain belt makes the wearer as strong as a hill giant, but
does not make him or her giant size. Many a cocky warrior has been surprised by
a much smaller opponent with remarkable strength. More often than not a belt
such as this is the reason.

a name for himself vexing the elves of Cormanthor forest. To their annoyance he

the elves' arrows as well. Unfortunately for Pandar, pit-traps and starvation
proved a slower, but effective, substitution.

after his family was slain. However, en route to their den the kobolds surprised
a family of stone giants. These giants rescued Stewart and raised him as their
own. It soon became apparent that the boy, no matter how hard he tried, could
not compete in the family rock throwing contests. The stone giant father
bartered with a local wizard for this girdle, which made Stewart as strong as
his brothers and sisters. When Stewart met an untimely end, the girdle was
stolen away.
