Intent:
Augmentation of hand to hand combat and minor guarding of hands from attacks.
Model:
Model D-3 Vigilance Electrostatic gauntlets
Type:
Melee hand wear charged with electricity and reinforced with cortosis.
Size:
Hand sized
Composition:
Mainly of cortosis, though also inlaid with other Superconductive materials with a thin protective layer of synthetic plastics.
Description:
A kind of glove inlade with Cortosis nano-fibers that discharges up to 85,000 volts of electricity upon contact when activated. It is possible for it to generate a current that is lethal upon contact, but due to the superconductive nature of cortosis doing so makes it a threat to both the user and the receiver of the attack, as the current would burn through the protective layer. This has lead to Vlatkat purposely limiting the maximum output of the device until he can find a suitable material for the protective layer. There are small disks covering the inner palm and knuckles that act as amplifiers. These gloves do have a generator near the edge of the sleeve that creates needed energy, but can in required situations siphon ambient electrical fields and energy from electronics. This occurs by using cortosis to manually draw in electricity and conduct it back to the generator. Attacks from these gauntlets have been known to disrupt technology and cause temporary paralysis in isolated regions.
What makes this different from other, similar tech?
Functions differently than a shockboxing glove in that it is more malleable and fabric like, allowing freedom of movement. Also has a rechargeable battery due to siphoning capabilities.
