[Jean Paul de Sens]

I know of two in the last 5 years personally.  One is Morgans, and the
other was Daffyd's squire Fafnir, who got his sword arm broken in a
weird accident (the details are fuzzy).   Both were wearing vambraces,
but I'm not sure of what state Fafnir's vambrace was in.  I know that
Fafnir had to fight weird handed for a while.  Of course, I can't
remember if he was/is right or left handed to begin with.
