Origin[]
Wilma Glodean Rudolph (June 23, 1940 – November 12, 1994) was an American athlete and an Olympic champion. Rudolph was considered the fastest woman in the world in the 1960s and competed in two Olympic Games, in 1956 and in 1960.
Wilma Glodean Rudolph was born prematurely at 4.5 lbs., the 20th of 22 siblings; her father Ed was a railway porter and her mother Blanche a maid. Rudolph contracted infantile paralysis (caused by the polio virus) at age four. She recovered, but wore a brace on her left leg and foot (which had become twisted as a result) until she was nine. This Leg Brace absorbed her ambition and eventually became an artifact.
Effects[]
Fixes severe leg injuries and conditions, healing them to functional status. Wearer feels the compulsion to keep running until totally exhausted.
Retrieval[]
Nick collected this artifact after a young kid named Tyler won 10 games all in a row.
