- Intent: To sub an artifact for Gianna Aegis

- Canon Link: N/a
- Primary Source:
- Manufacturer: Locke and Key Mechanics
- Affiliation: Individual Character Name:
Gianna Aegis
- Model: Heaven's Embrace
- Modularity: No
- Production: Unique
- Material:
- Allows the user to more easily use Force Barrier, strengthening their natural ability
- Allows the wearer to use Revitalize more easily, providing energy to themselves or allies.
- Provides a boost to the wearer's natural ability to use the force to heal.
- Shiny: First and foremost the Heaven's Embrace is a piece of handcrafted jewellery, and with or without its force imbued enhancements Heaven's Dance remains an elegant accessory. Furthermore, given the thin nature of the metal, it is easy for Heaven's Dance to hide away underneath clothes or armour when you don't want to put it on display.
- Ether: Much like the potion in Final Fantasy Heaven's Embrace allows the user to restore and replenish energy, either theirs or that of their allies allowing them to keep going and pushing on past their normal limits, or to stabilise a patient when needed.
- Shield me, shield you: Barrier, the ability to protect, perhaps the core of the idea of Heaven's Embrace. The power of the Ankarres Saphire funnelled through the imbuments in the metal allow the wearer to summon a stronger more capable barrier.
- Too much of a good thing: While Heaven's Embrace does allow the user to call on the force to restore their, or their allies energy, repeated use are draining on the wearer, and repeated boosts to an individual can be harmful to their health. This is a power to be used sparingly.
- Null Field: The abilities of the anklet are entirely based in the force, and any kind of force nullifying field would leave it as nothing but a pretty accessory.
- Beacon in the force: Imbued as it is the Heaven's dance stands out as a beacon in the force, detectable by other force users. If you were thinking about sneaking around...
In the aftermath of the Confederacy Invasion of Taanab John thought for a moment that he had lost his friend and didn't much like the thought of the world without her. In an effort to help her deal with any further situations she might find herself in with similar circumstances he started to wrack his brain to find away to give her an edge. Although a number of technological possibilities presented themselves to him, ultimately the man discarded them as not something that would suit Gianna. Instead of shields or heavy armour he decided instead to create a pair of force imbued anklets designed to boost and augment the woman's natural defensive abilities in the force.
Heaven's Embrace is the second of the anklets John made, this time mixing his basic knowledge of force alchemy into the mix he included cut and polished pieces of an Ankarres Sapphire into the accessory to accentuate the metal. He had originally wanted to include a shield, a way for Gianna to defend herself, however further reflection, and EX actually bumping him on the head, made the man realise that's not what the Jedi was about. She wouldn't want to defend just herself when she could protect others, as many others as she could. So he tried to make that a little easier for her, having his alchemists imbue Heaven's Embrace with the ability of force barrier, allowing Gianna to create stronger, bigger, barriers if she needed to. Like the Heaven's Dance, he tried to develop the benefits of the accessory into something that would support and supplement Gianna, not just in protecting herself, but her passion to help others. Providing boosts of energy or an increased ability to heal would come in just as useful in a hospital or normal work as it would on a battlefield.
