To an onlooker, these gloves appear to have been crafted from some form of semi-solid liquid metal, given its shiny metallic finish and the way it flows and stretches with the movements of the wearer's hands. Closer inspection reveals the gloves are woven from some form of spider's silk that has been impregnated with powdered truemetal. The exact secret of how such a thing is done is not told to many people, and it certainly explains the premium prices these gloves usually command.

Wearing these gloves grants the wearer greater expertise with eight different skills. Such gloves are almost exclusively worn by adventurers, though a few high noblemen (kings, and the like) sometimes wear them to show off to their peers. These gloves are so expensive, and provide such a broad variety of insight into skills that few people with actual jobs really ever have need of them. For these callous-handed folk, the gloves of the worker or tradesman are far more useful (and affordable).

Since the bonus granted by the gloves of the maker is an Enhancement Bonus, it cannot be stacked with other skill-boosting items boosting the same skill; instead, only the highest available boost is added to a given skill. You can, however, have multiple skill boosting items that affect different skills.

While worn, these gloves grant the wearer a +4 Enhancement Bonus to eight different skills, chosen at the time the gloves are acquired. Once selected, the skills affected by these gloves cannot be changed, even through the Reselection process. Instead, new gloves must be purchased.

The owner of this magic item must wear it continuously for 24 hours to attune it to their aura, and until that time has passed, it provides no benefits to the wearer.
