[Skies] Item - Farclasp Wraps

First foray into the fiberpunk/fibromancy aspect of Cirro, the sky City of Vapour. To reduce weight, Cirro uses fabric for much of its building material as well as its  gear. These were a pain to design given their multi-rarity variants, but ... it's probably fine. I mainly wanted them as one of several methods of fall protection. I also hope to explore fiberpunk / fibromancy one day, maybe in a fabric/tailoring/needles theme of some sort.

These armwraps are originally designed to be a simple method of safety precautions for workers aboard flying cities, particularly the cloudwrights responsible for external inspections. Refinement of sewing and cirrosilk production led to a widespread adoption of these wraps among the skywardens who also operate in the open air as well as the traveling windhunters. These new users developed a unique method of combat and terrain traversal using these wraps.

Farclasp Wraps
Wondrous item, rarity varies (requires attunement)

These armwraps are made of ribbons that form a hand at one end and wrap around your forearm at the other. During the attunement period, you must wrap these ribbons around both your forearms, after which they cannot be removed from you until you end your attunement to them. The wraps effectively function as hands for you even if you are missing hands.

These wraps can briefly extend your reach and allow you to affect things within range, which is 15 feet. Extended wraps typically retract at the end of your turns. The wraps’ cirrosilk thread composition determines its rarity as well as their properties and usage.

Stitched Threads (Common). Wraps stitched with external thread provide enough fibromancy control for basic distant tasks. You can use these wraps to manipulate objects within range in quick simple ways, such as turning a key, pushing a crate, or grabbing an object. The target object must not be worn or carried.

Blended Threads (Uncommon). Wraps made with a blend of thread provide enough strength to bear weight. These wraps have the benefits of the stitched threads version plus several additional properties. As a bonus action, you can use these wraps to grab a fixed object or surface within range, such as a tree or wall, and pull yourself to a space adjacent to the target. Additionally, whenever you are pushed off a ledge, you can use your reaction to grab the ledge and pull yourself to it, provided it is within range.

Interwoven Threads (Rare). Wraps made with interwoven thread provide additional control for finer tasks and combat. These wraps have the benefits of the stitched and blended threads versions, plus an additional property. Once on each of your turns, when you use these wraps to make an unarmed strike or make a melee weapon attack using a Light weapon, you can increase your reach for that attack up to the wraps’ range. Additionally, you can use these wraps to grapple creatures within range. Make the ability check to grapple as normal; if you succeed, you also pull your target up to 10 feet toward you.

Pure Threads (Very Rare). Pure cirrosilk wraps are exceptionally strong yet lightweight. These wraps have the benefits of the stitched, blended, and interwoven threads versions, except its range is 20 feet instead of 15 feet.

Refined Master Threads (Legendary). When pure cirrosilk undergo rare magical and physical refinement, their length and enchantments improves. These wraps have the benefits of all other thread types, except its range is 30 feet instead of 15 feet. Also, when you use a property of the wraps, you can change its range to 50 feet for that use of the property. You can't change the range this way again until the next dawn.
