Ring of the Iron Grip (Least Minor Ring)

Aura faint abjuration; CL 1st; Slot ring; Price 100 gp; Weight —

DESCRIPTION

This simple, thick band of gray-black iron has a smoothness born of wear, rather than polish.

EFFECTS

As a move action the wearer can activate a powerful magnetic grip, allowing any metal weapon wielded in that hand to function as if held in a locked gauntlet (+10 bonus to the wearer’s Combat Maneuver Defense to resist disarm maneuvers). As with a locked gauntlet, while the ring is active, the hand affected cannot be used to cast spells or to use skills which require free hands.

Deactivating the ring requires a move action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS

Feats Forge Ring or Ring Apprentice; Spells mage hand; Cost 50 gp.
