The Loomhand's Grasp

A pair of close-fitting gloves woven from midnight-blue silk, articulated silver plates, and strands of glass-fine wire that glow like captured starlight. Each fingertip bears a tiny polished ring, and delicate runes move across the palms whenever a magical wire is near. When the wearer gestures, unseen tension seems to gather in the air, as though the world itself were a loom.

  1. Always on
    The gloves sense enchanted lines as a weaver senses tension in a loom.
  2. Action
    A gesture lets the wearer draw, slacken, loop, or redirect a magical wire without touching it.
  3. Action
    When a magical strand is bound around a creature, the wearer can seize its tension and force it to release or tighten.
  4. Reaction
    A quick flick can spoil a magical wire's attack without severing or dispelling it.

Its story

A pair of close-fitting gloves woven from midnight-blue silk, articulated silver plates, and strands of glass-fine wire that glow like captured starlight. Each fingertip bears a tiny polished ring, and delicate runes move across the palms whenever a magical wire is near. When the wearer gestures, unseen tension seems to gather in the air, as though the world itself were a loom.

Lore

Legend claims every magical wire has a note in the great song of creation, and these gloves let their wearer pluck those notes by hand. They cannot make ordinary cord obey or conjure new strands; they are masters of what magic has already woven.

History

Ilyra Venn made the gloves to guide the enchanted suspension lines of a city she built above a bottomless chasm. After the city fell, the gloves passed between wire-sages, battlefield engineers, and thieves who learned that the artifact could command a magical snare as readily as a bridge cable.

Quirks

The gloves softly hum when a nearby magical wire is under strain.
When a wire is moved, the silver fingertip rings chime in a sequence only the wearer can hear.
The gloves leave faint blue afterimages in the air, like a loom tracing its work.
