Fists of Fury, is all legacy of the great Kirana-Ti from Khara Thur, a grandmaster in unarmed combat. Few were the foes that could stand against her Fists of Fury. She eventually retired and passed on her gloves to her apprentice. Said apprentice had a nasty habit of drinking to excess, and once on a bender he got robbed while passed out, and so the gloves have gone from person to person for the last 400 years.
