A knight's most trusted asset is not their weapon or mount, but their squire. However, squires are rarely treated with the respect they deserve, for no knight can live without a proper squire. One must also respect them for the hard work they do to rise as knights themselves. PolishAs part of a short or long rest, the squire can polish a piece of weapon or armor (which must be unattended or worn by a creature) to the point of being mirror like, this gives the piece of equipment a +1 bonus when being used. This bonus remains for 24 hours or until the item is soiled at the discretion of the DM (possibly it could be splattered in acid, or burned by a fireball). |
