Mage Bracelets are weird, underused implements from Thaumic Bases. I find them interesting but never hear anyone praising them or even discussing them. And I'll be honest in that I struggled to figure out what I even wanted to say about them that isn't already listed in my wand cap section as they are effectively just wand caps on a string, but I'll give it a shot.
Mage Bracelets are a device similar in nature to wands used for vis channeling. It is made from a chosen foci, two wand caps, and small baubles of the same material as said cap. As such there is far less room for creativity with these than of wands/staves/scepters. These Bracelets will 'supercharge' the foci that is it is equipped with, increasing its power output and minimalizing feedback thus allowing it to be active for longer/repeated sessions, as well as being far more concealable than a wand. There is a pretty major downside with this however as it comes with no wand core, and thus has very poor storage capacity, with even the best bracelet barely beating out your standard wooden core.
I decided to tweak the materials slightly to feel more like an actual bracelet and for more overlap between addons. Who makes a bracelet out of ice or reeds, HONESTLY? Also you look like a more high-fantasy aligned magic character with these able to conjure fireballs and stuff from what looks like bare hands. You should probably wear gloves come to think about it.
