Gleeok Fangs (material)

Gleeok Fangs
Type	Defensive Magical Item
Fields	Electric, Fire, Ice
Cost	12 rupees

Gleeok Fangs appear as a pair of large, hardened fangs. An Outfitter can craft these into a torso-piece or arms-piece, while a Weaponsmith can craft these into a shield.

Whenever the crafted item intercepts a Fire, Ice, or Electric attack, the item appears to consume some of the energy of the attack. Because the attack's intensity is reduced by this absorption, it is likely unable to penetrate the item on a direct hit.

Upon absorbing energy, the item begins to glow a dim red, blue, or yellow color, depending on the attack absorbed. In this way, the item can only "store" one type of attack, and if left alone will continue to glow indefinitely. While the item is glowing, the wielder or wearer can call upon it to release a blast of ferocious breath from a point on the item--a point the crafter designated while creating it. The item itself then uses Fire Breath, Ice Breath, or Thunder Breath, reflecting the type of attack it consumed. Although the item can store an attack indefinitely, but can only store one attack at a time.
