Hands of the Heretic
The Hands of the Heretic are an ancient, dark sided artifact rumored to exist in the world of Vjun. Originally force forged and later twisted by vile magics, they have existed in the possession of powerful darksiders many millennia ago.
Overview
The Hands of the Heretic is an ancient dark sided artifact currently at an undisclosed location on Vjun. Rumors state that a necromancer and ancient darksider had force forged the item and used it for his own gains. Upon his death, among several ancient and dangerous Force users before finally placed to rest. The exact whereabouts of the gauntlets are unknown even to the Jedi, but ancient rumors have always circulated around the planet of Vjun.
The gauntlets appear to be constructed from duranium alloys and duraplast blend, ebony in color and imbued with cortosis protection to forearm length. Additionally, the gauntlets have duranium spikes and razored blades on the dorsal surface, making them formidable melee weapons if necessary.
Special Powers:
The primary special ability of these gauntlets and the reason they are highly sought after is the dark sided powers it bestows upon the wearer. When directed, the gloves will release an agonizing stream of pure ebony flames towards an enemy target. Equivalency of deadliness to force fire, rivulets of fire scream outwards from the armored fingertips. The damage potential of this Force Fire is identical to its counterpart Force attack dependent on the level of the wielder. The flames carry a range of 10 meters and are capable of engulfing and incinerating those caught in their wake. The attack requires a cool down period (1 PvP round) before subsequent use. The gauntlets can hold only two charges of the ability before they must rest for a 24 hour period. During this rest period, the gauntlets do hold their protection rating as a piece of light-saber resistant armor.
