Agiel
A Agiel is a magic weapon of torture used in the cycle of the Sword of truth of Terry Goodkind
General characteristics
Agiel resembles a long red leather band of approximately 30 centimetres with a inner loop in end so that it can be balanced at the end of the wrist. it is used with a precision mortal by a Bites-Sith to torture and in general to make suffer the others. With a simple contact, it can meurtrir the flesh, break the bones and even kill if it is used in the correct way. To touch a agiel, even a second, returns has to hold an extreme firebrand in the hand during one hour.
Each Bites-Sith was tortured by its Master, and when it became Bites-Sith, it received the agiel which had been used on it.
The agiels function only with the service of the Rahl Lord. If ever the bond were broken between the Rahl Lord and Bites-Sith them, then the agiels would not function.
