Gauntlet

This weapon is a creation of Vexen's. It is a metallic blue "glove" that covers the forearm, hand, and fingers. Its abilities are revolutionary, being able to sample the temperature in a certain radius around its wearer. The temperature is severely decreased in living organisms caught in this radius, slowly giving the organism hypothermia. Eventually, the organisms in the radius are subjected to a gaseous nitrogen which then liquifies within the organism's bloodstream. As soon as the nitrogen hits the hemoglobin of the blood, it begins to freeze the organism alive. As soon as the nitrogen is within the bloodstream, it is no longer necessary for the wearer to activate the "radius", as the organism's fate is already sealed.

Vexen used this device on his former employer, General Branston; Branston was killed in the brutal fashion described above.
