Monthly Item: Mage Gloves - Terran - 04-11-2020
The Mage Gloves would take over the secondary slot and function as a special weapon. Similar to the Creed (Book) we have, it comes with several versatile spells to swap to on the fly. Differing from the book, however, is that the Gloves will have a "Mana" counter (Ammo) that starts at 50% a round and regenerates about 1% every 2 seconds. Spells cost varying amounts of Mana.
The main change is that you can equip Four spells at a time, but there are more than four total, which can be added in via a menu on the item in your inventory.
There are four spell Equip slots, which can be cycled via right-clicking with the Gloves equipped.
Note that newly spawned Mage Gloves come with 4 spells randomly selected. If you have a second pair of Mage Gloves, you can add the spells it has to your own Gloves, destroying the used ones in the process. This unlocks more spells to equip!
UNLESS SPECIFIED, spells must be cast standing STILL.

After a second passes, it'll make a loud whooshing noise and start a small whirlwind where cast. Anyone but the caster who enters the whirlwind will be slowed and have their ammo leeched. Leaving the whirlwind has these effects persist for several seconds afterwards. Any ammo leeched goes to the caster.
