Provides resistance from iron-based attacks.
*This item may be repaired 2 times and renewed 4 times.
Actually, this isn't iron at all. It looks like iron, but it's actually
iron... Made of energy. It looks like iron, and almost is iron, but in
fact is anti-iron. Even the world's foremost magical researchers have not
been able to deduce how these curious aberrations come to exist, but
arbitrarily, unthings are discovered or sensed within the environment. This
brick negates iron, and as such, is quite dangerous to have around any
cities or adventurers. However, due to its volatile power, it might be
useful for something, somewhere.

'Yes' you say to an intermediate artificer.
An intermediate artificer brushes his hands on his pants, and faces you.

Firstly, I need a pair of black gauntlets. Special ones, from a Cavhfail agent. Rich in magic from Matrix.
Secondly, I shall require a brick of anti-iron, to enhance reality.
Additionally, I shall require two other pairs of magical gauntlets, to ensure the correct form.
Perhaps, a pair of chain-link gloves, created by the last of the ogre magi. Make sure they still rejuvenate properly
And a pair of steel gauntlets, the kind that will confer a magical rage into all about them
Bring them to me at your leisure, and I shall rise to the occasion.

An intermediate artificer goes back to working.

*This item may be repaired 2 times and renewed 4 times.
Actually, this isn't iron at all. It looks like iron, but it's actually
iron... Made of energy. It looks like iron, and almost is iron, but in
fact is anti-iron. Even the world's foremost magical researchers have not
been able to deduce how these curious aberrations come to exist, but
arbitrarily, unthings are discovered or sensed within the environment. This
brick negates iron, and as such, is quite dangerous to have around any
cities or adventurers. However, due to its volatile power, it might be
useful for something, somewhere.

These gauntlets have been made from chain links and are lined with a soft
material. The knuckles are studded with more of the same metal as the
links. The metal used seems hard yet flexible enough to be comfortable, and
the gauntlets glow gently with a light blue magical aura.

Something about these steel gloves truly raises your ire. Your blood
temperature, heart rate, and seething, murderous rage, too. They're not
terribly ugly, nor finger-constrictingly tight. Nothing specific is wrong
with them, but gadzooks, the soul-blistering fury.

The ground disintegrates underfoot, crumbling to nothingness, vaporizing
after every step. The walls seem to be slowly drifting apart, not only from
one another, but themselves, as if turning into a gas. So far from the
surface, away from Castle Matrix, everything just seems a bit less real...
Blue-tinged magic physically manifests itself here, glowing.

These gauntlets are infused with the very ethereal energy that permeates
the Faerie Plane. Residue from the edges of the pocket dimension collects
in some locations, and apparently a good bit of it has been artificed into
these gauntlets. Named for the citadel that defines the Faerie Plane's very
existence, these gauntlets ripple with the same mystical energy that is
borne by the Castle's treasure. Most interestingly, these gauntlets not
only serve as regular battle armor, but seem to have the strange capacity to
take a bit of the plane elsewhere, protecting its native inhabitants from
dissolution and disruption in the physical plane.

COLORS
With color, it is easier to distinguish between room descriptions and
creatures, as well as any other text received through the game. It is
recommended that you experience Materia Magica in its full color glory,
but if you are having problems such as a slow or lagged connection,
it can help to turn it off as it reduces the number of characters sent
by the server to you.

In addition to normal colors set by the system, players may use the
following pipe codes in their text to change the colors of the result:

|B = High Intensity Blue
|R = High Intensity Red
|C = High Intensity Cyan
|M = High Intensity Magenta
|Y = High Intensity Yellow
|W = High Intensity White
|G = High Intensity Green
|b = Regular Intensity Blue
|r = Regular Intensity Red
|c = Regular Intensity Cyan
|m = Regular Intensity Magenta
|y = Regular Intensity Yellow
|w = Regular Intensity White
|g = Regular Intensity Green
|D = Regular Intensity Grey
|X = Resets colors back to their normal state

If the first set of colors appears exactly like the second set of colors,
you are probably using a Windows telnet client or do not have true ANSI
emulation. For more information on clients that support ANSI, see the
Materia Magica homepage at http://www.materiamagica.com.

Color use in public channels (such as dream, yell, and shout) is limited
to 3 color codes. Titles are limited to a maximum of 5 color codes, and
descriptions are limited to a maximum of 100 color codes (although this
should in no way encourage you to use them all). As with most everything,
color works best in moderation.
