Golden Yozi Pimping Hand
Artifact ****
Smashfist
Created by a now forgotten demon hunting Zenith in the First Age this artifact lies in wait for a new owner, or the reincarnation of its creator. In appearance it is a large gauntlet made from orichalcum alloyed steel, decorated with moonsilver inlay depicting the Zenith caste mark on the back of the hand with rays of light extending outwards towards the fingers. Thanks to the moonsilver it can change size to match its wearer's hand, even changing configuration to be worn on either the left or right. The gauntlet extends to cover the entire forearm and so any armour that covers that area needs to be removed. The palm glows with a soft light (equivalent to caste mark) that cannot be totally concealed, any attempt to hide the glow will fail.

Can parry melee and physical missile attacks w/o a stunt. Can detect the presence of undead/demons within 10*perm Essence yrds, passes this info to user by a tingling in the fingers, 1 finger per presence detected (lots = hand goes tingly) - this isn't enough to distract, only to warn.
Spend 3 motes to set it all a glowing (equal to 11+ anima), in this state does Agg damage to Demons + Undead (not abyssals tho) and adds users essence to base damage. (generally invoked by clenching fist and punching the air, nice flash of light special effect too).
Spend 1 wp and x motes when glowing to inflict x Agg at Essence *50 yrds range vrs Demons + Undead (single target), unless worn by a Zenith caste, they can just channel their normal anima power through the gauntlet, using x motes to inflict x + perm Essence Agg.
Spend 1 wp and 5 + x motes when in glow mode to summon a ball of solar essence in the palm of the hand, this can then be thrown to Essence * 10 yrds, exploding on contact. The explosion damages any undead/demon within Essence yrds, doing x + perm Essence Agg.
