Arcane Belt (Magic Belt)

This is the most common and least powerful of the broad, cummerbund belts worn by arcane. They rarely sell them, but neither do they challenge individuals who wear them. Some have been traded or sold by arcane recently, and some have been found in space wrecks and treasure caches.
By turning a stud on the belt, a wearer who knows its secrets can levitate to any height. This allows the wearer to rise or descend through the air gently, or appeal to walk on water. There is no limitation on the number of times this power can be activated, but turning it on or off requires one round. The belt can also shed magical light or darkness in a 20' radius around the wearer. Identical to the effects of the wizard spells, these effects affect the belt wearer as well, lasting up to six rounds at a time (though the wearer can terminate them sooner).
Once either of the belt powers is used, the belt cannot repeat that particular effect until a complete turn has elapsed. The belt may be removed without ceasing to function (the wearer may create darkness, slip off the belt, and leave it to creep blindly toward a known exit to make an escape).
The belt has one additional power. By proper manipulation of the studs, the wearer can raise a wall of force twice a day, lasting for up to four turns (or ending instantly or earlier, if the wearer so desires). The wall of force covers an area equal to that of the equivalent spell, cast by a 16th-level wizard.
The belt's studs all lock into place and cannot accidentally be manipulated by a casual swipe or jostle. The belt appears to be leather with a metal boss, but it saves against dangers as if it were entirely metal, gaining a +3 bonus as well.
