Bazzelwyn gloves were available at Ebon Gate 2012-2016 in Futile Gestures, and at Ebon Gate 2017 in Tides That Bind. They are scripted, magical gloves that can be unlocked with special messaging from the list below. The wearer can absorb the magic from a wave/raise activated imbed by clenching the gloves with the item in the right hand. The absorbed item will be destroyed if crumbly, or simply drained of all charges if not. Clench the gloves twice with nothing in hand to clear them of any magic before absorbing a new, different spell if needed. Verbose messaging (referenced below) only fires when the gloves contain magic and also when the verb makes sense for invocation; such that trying to RAISE when Stun Relief is loaded, the below messaging does not display because the player cannot invoke an unstun upon themselves.

Owners can have their gloves unlocked by Xerria or by Bazzelwyn at Ebon Gate.

ANALYZE will tell you the unlocked status and which messages are set for WAVE and RAISE.

You analyze your scarlet gloves and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:
* It is fully alterable.

These scarlet gloves are set to use fancy messaging for WAVE.  They're using the following set of messaging:
You dismissively flick your hand at YOUR TARGET with an air of indifference.

These scarlet gloves are set to use fancy messaging for RAISE.  They're using the following set of messaging:
You raise your hands high above your head, as your scarlet gloves are surrounded by a bright glow.

These scarlet gloves are unlocked.

You get no sense of whether or not the gloves may be further lightened.
