When worn by a living creature, these mottled gloves virtually meld with the wearer's own flesh, making his hands appear gaunt and rotting.
Once per round, the wearer can make a touch attack that paralyzes the target for 1d6+2 rounds (Fortitude DC 13 negates). Elves are immune to this paralysis. The wearer can also deliver this attack as part of an unarmed strike, slam, claw, or similar natural attack made with the hand, but in that case must attack normally (and not with a touch attack).
The ghoul gauntlets have no effect when worn by a construct or undead creature. If the wearer dies, the gauntlets revert to their normal appearance.
