Brass Knuckles (NowhereMash)

Brass knuckles are pieces of metal shaped to fit around the knuckles. Despite their name, they are often made from other metals, plastics or carbon fibers. Designed to preserve and concentrate a punch's force by directing it toward a harder and smaller contact area, they result in increased tissue disruption, including an increased likelihood of fracturing the victim's bones on impact. The extended and rounded palm grip also spreads across the attacker's palm the counter-force that would otherwise be absorbed primarily by the attacker's fingers, reducing the likelihood of damage to the attacker's fingers.
Brass knuckles convert the wielder's unarmed damage to lethal damage. The user may hold, but not wield, a weapon or other object in the hand wearing brass knuckles. The wearer may also cast spells with somatic components while wearing brass knuckles if they make a successful concentration check (D 10 + the level of the spell being cast). Brass knuckles cannot be disarmed.
