Rookie Questions re Glamour and Patches

[Hector, tamer of horses]

Thanks

All of you. Your responses were very quick and responsible.

I have a real idiot question for you. I received an arena summons. So figuring I wanted to win, I send my pretender. Heck it was turn two I figured I just reboot if he croaks. Well, he won alright. And I got this nifty little two handed trident. The problem is that the trident is cursed and now I can't get rid of it.

Can I break the curse to get rid of the thing?

Also, what happens when the next arena challenge arrives? Is my pretender required to go?

How can I get out of it?

Is there a way to send someone else in his place?
