AD&D - Gauntlets of Dexterity

The Evil Dungeon Master Universe

Gauntlets of Dexterity: These seemingly ordinary leather gloves are magically enhanced to fit any wearer, whether a halfling or a large human. When worn, they offer a significant boost to the wearer’s dexterity:

• If the wearer’s dexterity is 6 or lower, the gauntlets increase it by 4 points.
• If the wearer’s dexterity is between 7 and 13, the increase is 2 points.
• If the wearer’s dexterity is 14 or higher, it is increased by 1 point.

Additionally, non-thief characters gain the ability to pick pockets or open locks as if they were a 4th-level thief. For characters who are already thieves, the gauntlets grant a 10% bonus to their chances of success in these abilities, further enhancing their skill.
