Wondrous Item, unknown rarity

A pair of silver-colored cuff bracelets hinge open and closed. A small key on a chain matches the cuffs. They are made of an unknown metal.  No latch or keyhole is visible until the cuffs are worn. Then a keyhole appears on them.

The bracelets prevent the wearer from casting any spells. If only one bracelet is worn or if the bracelets are worn by two different people, they can cast utilitarian cantrips only (nothing with an attack ability). Attempting to do so will cause 1d4 shock damage to the one wearing the bracelet and the spell fails. Continued attempts increase the damage by 1d4. This resets the next dawn (after a short rest).

Attempting to remove the cuffs by either force or lock picking will cause 2d4 shock damage to both the wearer and anyone attempting to help remove it. Continued attempts to remove the cuffs without the key will add 1d4 shock damage to every attempt afterward until the next dawn (after a long rest) when this resets. 

 

(Based on the A'dam from the Wheel of Time series. I wanted it a little more versatile, hence the changes.)
