Gauntlets of the Necromancer

The Gauntlets of the Necromancer are a weapon from Heretic, analogous to Doom's chainsaw. They are a pair of spiked gauntlets with a green aura. When active, they emit short-range magical energy that damages enemies and drags the player toward them. When a Tome of Power is active, the Gauntlets have a red aura, increased attack range, and the ability to drain health from enemies and transfer it to the player. This weapon is always effective on ghosts.

The idle frame without the Tome of Power is very similar to the idle frame for the gauntlets of Baratus, the fighter in Hexen
