Name: Itchy Tiger Paws
Item: Cloth gloves inked with tiger stripe pattern.
Spells: Partial Shapeshifting(Tiger Paws)[1,750 energy], Itch[60 energy].
Effect: They give +25 to your ST for damage purposes, and grant Sharp Claws(which allow damage bonus from either Brawling or Karate). However, they itch. Constantly. You'll be just as inclined to scratch your own hands...with your now very strong, very sharp hands, as you willl be to actually fight. You're at -2 to all DX rolls while so distracted by your itching.
Origin: There were two circles of enchanters in the same town. The not-so-reputable guy got his assistants together and snuck into the other guys' place, casting a Quick & Dirty "Itch" on their gloves halfway through their Slow & Sure casting of "Partial Shapeshifting: Tiger Paws."
Cost: As they are cursed, they cost a mere $25,000, including the gloves, rather than the un-cursed version that would have been worth $57,765.
