Wondrous Item, Rare (Requires Attunement)
A glove of roiling darkness, contained by a golden band.
Shadow’s Sting. The darkness enveloping your hand allows you to reach through shadows. Once during each of your turns you can make a melee attack against a target you can see within 60 feet of you, so long as you and the target are within 5 feet of dim light or darkness.
Grasping Darkness. When you make an attack using Shadow’s Sting and choose to grapple the target, you can enhance the grapple as multiple shadowy limbs erupt from the darkness. The escape DC for your grapple is increased by your Proficiency Bonus and the target is Restrained until the grapple ends. The grapple ends early if you or the target are no longer within 5 feet of dim light or darkness.
You cannot move the target along with you while grappling it this way. You can use your Action to pull the grappled target through the shadows, teleporting it to a space within 5 feet of you that contains dim light or darkness.
Once you use this feature to enhance your grapple, you cannot do so again until the next dusk.
Fragments of the endless void have made their way into the realms. As destruction incarnate cannot be itself destroyed, servants of the divine strive to contain each hungering mote of darkness. While most such orders would be content with containment, some see the void as a means to reach new heights, and choose to wield its voracious power for themselves.
