Dark birds of prey, four small chains, and a black-and-yellow checkered field adorn these leather gloves.

Inspired by the spells of the legendary wizard Bigby, these gloves help keep enemies at a safe distance. You can activate repelling gauntlets only when a visible enemy moves into a square adjacent to you. That enemy must attempt a DC 17 Reflex save; if this fails, it is immediately pushed 5 feet away from you and it loses any remaining movement allowed in that action (though it can use additional actions to move farther).
For example, if a wolf (speed 50 feet) moved 30 feet into a square adjacent to you, and it failed its save against the effect, you would push it 5 feet away from you in any direction and it would lose the remaining 20 feet of that move action. It could then use another move action, if it still had one, to close the remaining distance. If the wolf were charging, its entire full-round action would be wasted.
This ability functions once per day.

Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, Bigby’s interposing hand.
Cost to Create: 1,000 gp (plus 300 gp for base item), 80 XP, 2 days.
