Illithid Gauntlets

An Illithid Gauntlet of unknown purpose that seems to amplify the user’s psionic abilities. The gauntlet can be charged using the wearers own brain power to amplify its power. Charging the gauntlet requires a standard action, similar to reloading a firearm. The gauntlet may be charged three times, and loses its charges each time it is fired.
Helix received the Illithid gauntlets as a gift from his mentor and captain, Klarisia as a parting gift when he left to join the corsairs. He has used their telekinetic abilities throughout his adventures to great effect, such as launching Jaime at Prince Lucas's airship and saving the ninja, Rin, from being stranded in naught gravity.
He later discovered the gauntlets held more secrets than he previously believed when he took them to the artifact-appraiser, Melfina, in Lion City's bone market. Using her powers to identify them, she became horrified and shoved them back into his hands, along with heaps of gold to take them away.
The incident drew the Party to the attention of the Firefly Society, an organization of artifact hunters composed of corsairs and scholars from the Homyn Academy. Its founder, Anderson Lake, allowed the Party admission to the Firefly Society in exchange for allowing him to use the gauntlets in a heist he is planning.
The Party has since learned there is another pair of the guantlets somewhere in the system that has passed through the hands of many historical figures, including an Ifrit General named Prestor John who led a faction called the Heresy of the Void.
