Gauntlet of Darkness[edit]

This cloudy black crystalline gauntlet shimmers with a mirror finish. The crystal flexes and fits easily to the wearer's hand. Thought to have been forged by ancient fey peoples, the processes that went into its construction have been lost to time.

The gauntlet of darkness functions as a weapon augment crystal for any weapon held in the hand that bears it, including unarmed strikes and feral weapons, but not natural attacks. If the weapon already has a weapon augment crystal slotted into it, that crystal takes priority and the gauntlet of darkness provides no magical benefit.

The wearer gains a +1 bonus to the caster level of [Darkness] spells.

The gauntlet may be enhanced as used as a weapon in its own right, and is otherwise masterwork, gaining the effects below to its own attacks as they apply.

Least: The gauntlet of darkness adds +2 Typeless damage to attacks made with the weapon in its grasp. However, the wearer loses 1 hit point which bypasses resistances and temporary hit points.

Lesser: The gauntlet of darkness instead adds +2d6 Typeless damage. However, the wearer takes half this extra damage to herself as hit point loss which bypasses resistances and temporary hit points. The wearer may channel darkness into the held weapon (as the darkness spell, caster level 12th) as a standard action at will, with a duration of Concentration.

Greater: As the lesser effect plus the gauntlet of darkness staggers the target for 1 round on a natural 20 attack roll made with the held weapon. The wearer may channel darkness into the held weapon (as the blacklight spell, caster level 12th) as a standard action at will, with a duration of Concentration.

Strong Evocation; CL 12th; Market Price: 9000 gp.

Cost to Create: Unique item, cannot be crafted.
