Just checked:
My character is wearing Gauntlets of Power. The description says nothing about it being cursed.
Gauntlets of Power:
The wearer also gains Absolute's Bane. Creatures hit by an attack may receive a d4 penalty to attack and saving throws.
I feel like it is a stretch to say that when it says creatures it does include the wearer. If it is so, why would anyone want to use them. Possibly have the description say it does affect the wearer.
