DESCRIPTION
The Mautkai gauntlets are gauntlets... made by the Matukai. Novel concept, isn't it? They are designed specifically for those who have an affinity for unarmed combat. When activated, the gauntlets pass a small, magnetic field along the entire length that is capable of repelling blaster bolts, lightsabers, vibroblades, etc. It also provides reinforcement of the fist for punching people in the face really hard. Because of how the magnetic field functions it cannot be active when anything is held in the hands, which renders the gauntlets virtually useless for those who want to carry weapons. They extend over the hands and up the forearms to the elbow and cannot be used in conjunction with standard hand armor. They do not protect the inside of the hands, and therefore cannot be used to grab a lightsaber or vibroblade.

LEGALITY
Legal pretty much everywhere, though wearing armored gloves might get a couple of weird looks.

INTENT
To make a weapon that can be used by people who want to use no other weapon and strictly use hand-to-hand combat. Although this looks somewhat like armor, it isn't technically supposed to be used as armor. This is in lieu of actually carrying a lightsaber, which is why it functions like a lightsaber without the fancy cutting abilities. One would likely need to either be a Matukai or, if not, they need to obtain them from a strictly Matukai PC.
