Obliteration Gauntlet
Created for the express purpose of being the ultimate weapon, The Obliteration Gauntlet is considered to be one of the most destructive magical items that there is. Fortunately for many adventurers, these items are notoriously rare, mainly because there are very few individuals that can make a complete one by themselves. Typically at least two allied casters must work together to complete this item, and because of the enormous inconvenience they are rarely for sale. What few exist are widely sought after by all different types of entities.
The Obliteration Gauntlet is actually composed of six different, much simpler magical items; the gauntlet and five different gems. Each item is useless on its own, but when they are together they are a force to be reckoned with. Gems from different gauntlets are interchangeable, leading to intense competition between gauntlet holders for a missing gem. While there are only five known gems, it has been suggested that other such items could be created to work with the gauntlet, if one was obtained for study. These items are, however, only theoretical at this point.
All the abilities of the gems are activated as a free action, however The Obliteration Gauntlet can only produce one effect per a round. All spells are cast as an 11th level caster (DC 20+spell level.)
The Gauntlet
This is an ornate, rune-covered golden gauntlet. On the tip of the index finger is a small diamond, and there are five slots in the shape of gems on The Gauntlet’s side. The Gauntlet is the unifying force between all the gems, the way that their power can be harnessed. By pointing and saying a command word, specific to the gem that the wanted effect is associated with, a ray is shot from the diamond, requiring a ranged touch attack to hit a target. If the target is hit, he is subject to the effect of the gem (he may still make a saving throw, if the spell allows.)
