Magnetic Shackles
itemHeavy-duty industrial gray metal magnetic cuffs locking hands behind back causing skin degradation with yellowish crust from sweat and dead skin buildup over months of wear.
Magnetic Shackles begin as brutal, long-term restraints in Morning Star, where months of continuous wear leave Darrow’s wrists raw and crusted. By Iron Gold they have evolved into a standardized, multi-point restraint system capable of hog-tying both wrists and ankles, reflecting the Rising’s need for more secure prisoner transport amid escalating civil conflict. Their recurring presence underscores the saga’s persistent theme that even a victorious revolution must still grapple with instruments of control.
