This is a rare magic item that requires attunement by a monk. It consists of a pair of metal knuckles that fit over the wearer's fingers and enhance their unarmed strikes.

Enhanced Unarmed Strikes

While wearing these knuckles, you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls with your unarmed strikes.

Fushan's Fury

Once per day, you can use a bonus action to activate the knuckles' fury mode for 1 minute. While in fury mode, you gain the following benefits:
  • You can make one additional unarmed strike as part of your Attack action.
  • Your unarmed strikes deal an extra force damage on a hit.
  • You have advantage on Strength checks and saving throws.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Fushan and Shoukai's Legacy

If you are attuned to both the Furious Knuckles of Unstoppable Strength and the Shoukai's Sandals of Swift Step, you gain the following benefits:
  • You can use a bonus action to activate both items' special modes at the same time, instead of using separate bonus actions for each item. You still can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest.
  • While in both items' special modes, you can make one additional unarmed strike as part of your Attack action and deal an extra force damage on each hit. This is in addition to the benefits of each item.
  • You gain proficiency in the Insight and Intimidation skills. If you already have proficiency in these skills, you add double your proficiency bonus to checks made with them.

Lore

These knuckles were forged by a legendary monk named Fushan, who was renowned for his mastery of martial arts and his fiery temper. He imbued his knuckles with his own ki energy and used them to challenge anyone who dared to cross him. He was eventually defeated by a rival monk named Shoukai, who used his own magic item: a pair of sandals that granted him incredible speed and agility. Shoukai took Fushan's knuckles as a trophy and hid them in his monastery, where they remained for centuries until they were rediscovered by adventurers.
