- Increased affinity to the Dark side of the force.
- Increased ability with melee weapons.
- Dark Side Corruption Effect
As a dark sided artifact, those who wear the gloves will draw closely to the dark side. For any lightsiders, it can corrupt them very rapidly by the pulsating power that the gloves promise the wearer. For this, It increase the affinity of the force within the wearers. Allowing a much deeper connection. As well, the creator of the gauntlets instills knowledge of usage of melee weaponry such as lightsabers and swords. Making one capable of being one tier above what they should be.
Strengths:
- Increases the affinity to the dark side to whoever wears the gauntlets.
- Gauntlet aids with the reflexes and endurance with melee weaponry most suitable towards swords and lightsabers.
- As with the increased affinity to the dark side, should anyone not be completely corrupted by the force, it will increase the corruption effect. *double the effect of corruption effects*
- As used for bladed combat, or lightsaber combat, The gauntlets have slight resistances to these weapons. Enough for simple melee weapons to be reduced dramatically, while lightsabers can smack the gauntlets a few times before they could be destroyed.
- Should a Lightsided individual wear the gloves, the corruption hastens much faster than expected of a Darker individual. Prompting anger, hatred, or even become rash with decisions, all the way up to going into a rage.
- Made out of durasteel. Can still be broken and demolished. Unlike other Sith artifacts. Not indestructible like a Sith sword.
- Very difficult to replace.
- Wearer could potentially Feel influences of Marka Ragnos, as he is known to cheat death, and influence others from the grave.
Marka Ragnos, a half-breed Sith who had fought for the title of Lord of the Sith, was a very powerful individual. Known for his sorcery, and connection to the dark side of the force, as well as a scepter that could double as a sword when needed. These gauntlets have been married with the dark side of the force to provide strengths to the wearer. Rumor has it, that one can hear the voices of the being himself within the wearer. Taunting them, promising them.
It was during the resurgence of the Sith upon Korriban that Nickolas Imura, ventured on his own into the tomb of the very being these belonged to. Taking the gauntlets for himself, he aims to strengthen himself with this artifact, as well as bring those who know of him, to be wary of his intentions. Is he doing this for himself, or is he doing it to bring back Marka Ragnos?
Only time will tell.
*THIS IS A CANON ARTIFACT*
