Gloves of Night

The Gloves of Night are a Level 3 Treasure of the Sluagh.

Overview

While the underfolk can twist their bodies to fit into nearly any crevice or opening, there are times when even the most flexible will find themself stopped by a locked door. For those moments, the Gloves of Night come in handy.

Appearing to be a simple pair of black leather gloves, this treasure has a unique property that plays upon the sluagh Birthright. By spending a point of Glamour, the flesh within the Gloves can be liquified or solidified at the whim of the wearer. This allows the crawler wearing them to remodel their digits into claws, suction cups, or even lock-picks. The user can also choose the consistency of the mutated fingers, allowing enough rigidity for a fleshy lock-pick to turn tumblers without lacerations.

The effects of the crafting fade in under an hour once the Gloves are removed but as the gloves reshape themselves to be skintight with the flesh within, there's really no utilitarian reason to ever take them off.

There are 13 sets of the Gloves in existence, with each Court known to possess six. The whereabouts of the last pair are a mystery to even the eldest and best connected of the kith.
