An ego bracer is issued to every citizen in Nodd. This wristband can access one's ego file, send messages, search the arcanet, store items and familiars, record holograms, cast basic spells, and more.

The screen doesn’t have buttons of any kind, but rather demands the user concentrate on the desired information. The bracer’s audio will be present in the user’s head, and visuals will manifest above the bracer’s screen as a magic hologram. Only the user will see or hear this information; others will only see a colorful jumble of symbols and shapes. If the user is unable to concentrate, the hologram and sounds will fail to manifest. If the user cannot see, or has no sense of sight, one can learn to manifest the information in other ways, or purchase an ego bracer for one’s specific situation.

Most ego bracers also act as a basic utility artifact with several spells one can browse in a list. For a basic ego bracer, these generally include things like light-producing spells, heat and cold, a spout of clean drinking water, and basic self-defense spells. More expensive models may be capable of casting better spells, but usually a mage will have a separate, higher-quality artifact for anything more powerful or specialized.

Ego bracers need a gloam battery to function. Gloam’s natural green color can be seen in the bracer’s screen, but this can usually be changed in the bracer’s settings - at a small energy cost.

Ego bracers come in many styles, shapes and sizes, and can be customized or upgraded to personal taste - given one has the funds to do so.
