Hands of Takkok

The hands of Takkok was a set of gauntlets of ogre power that had been crafted form the actual severed hands of the ogre Takkok.

Powers
When worn, the hands of Takkok granted an individual incredible strength, comparable to that of an ogre.

History
The gauntlets were crafted by a mysterious, unnamed man who once encountered Takkok when he was traversing the Spine of the World mountains. When the man was assaulted by Takkok he bested the ogre, severed his hands and used their skin for his new gauntlets.

At some point before the Year of the Banner, 1368 DR, the hands came into the possession of Desreta a devout worshiper of the primordial known as entropy. By the following year they had been acquired by a cannibalistic halfling from the planet of Athas, who had been detained by Lavok Corthala and imprisoned within his Planar Sphere.
