Is This Anything?

The Felt Digit of Tactile Telekinesis is a large, overly stuffed, pointing hand made of felt, sized to fit over a grown adult's fist. It is sewn from cheap red and yellow felt, with uneven seams and shifted stuffing. The item is in the shape of a hand curled up with an extended index finger.

To use the item, the user must wear the item on their own hand, then press the tip of the felt finger against any object, and concentrate. Telekinesis occurs immediately, but it's not the object that moves, it is the wearer.

By maintaining contact between the felt digit and the object, the wearer can move themselves in any direction, at any speed the telekinesis would otherwise permit, for as long as the tip remains pressed against the surface. Release contact, and the effect ends.

Wondrous Item, uncommon. Requires attunement by a creature with at least one hand.
The wearer can move at a speed of up to 30 feet per round in any direction while maintaining contact. The felt digit has 4 hit points and no AC to speak of.

Meet Danumo Tallfellow.

He started on the street. Coins in a hat, card tricks, a little sleight of hand. Then he picked up an instrument and the coins came faster. He moved inside -- taverns, pub stages, dock-side crowds. Then small theaters. Then leads. Then one-man shows. Then coliseums.

There is no bigger stage than the one Danumo has already stood on. He has filled every seat in every room in every city. He is not just famous. He is beloved. He is the kind of name that makes strangers smile just by saying it.

It isn't enough.

It was never going to be enough. He doesn't want to maintain his fame -- he wants to expand it. Into every market, every household, every corner of the known world that hasn't heard of him yet. There aren't many of those left. But there is one frontier he hasn't conquered.

Adventuring.

At 5'1, he is the tallest halfling you have ever met, and he knows it. Slender, olive-skinned, with piercing green eyes and hair that enters the room a moment before he does. He has been trained in stage combat by the best stuntmen working, and he intends to find out how well that translates to something real.

Danumo Tallfellow is a Halfling Bard -- performer, showman, and the most charismatic person in any room he walks into. He has never walked into a room he didn't own.

Is This Anything?

Mankind has mastered interplanetary travel, and has colonies on most of the planets in our system.

However! The Rich can afford to travel in stasis, while The Poor have to travel normally. So on the other planets, there's a clear visual delineation between those in power and the help - grey hair and an aged face.
