Magnetic Shackles

Magnetic Shackles debut in Morning Star as heavy-duty industrial gray metal cuffs that lock a prisoner's hands behind the back, inflicting prolonged skin degradation marked by yellowish crust from accumulated sweat and dead skin over months of continuous wear. By Iron Gold the design has advanced to include coordinated hand and ankle restraints that link together, enabling secure hogtying of captives and demonstrating refined control mechanisms within the Society's penal system. This evolution underscores the escalating sophistication and cruelty of restraint technology across the saga, shifting from simple long-term immobilization to versatile, multi-limb immobilization suited for transport and interrogation.
