Capacitance Gauntlet (5e Equipment)
From D&D Wiki
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement) This mechanized brass and copper gauntlet automatically adjusts itself to fit the wearer. It has 10 charges. Once per round when you make an attack, you can expend 1d4 charges from the gauntlet to replace that attack with a special attack, an unarmed strike, made with the gauntlet. This attack automatically hits, and deals 1d8 lightning damage for each charge expended. A creature that takes this lightning damage can't take reactions and has its speed reduced to 0 until the start of its next turn. As a reaction to taking lightning damage, you can use the gauntlet to absorb some of the electrical energy, halving the lightning damage dealt to you. The gauntlet recovers 1 charge for every 10 points of lightning damage reduced in this way. The gauntlet regains 1d6+4 charges daily at dawn. If the gauntlet reaches 0 charges, it shorts out and electrocutes the user, incapacitating them and reducing their speed to 0 until the end of their next turn. |
