Void Shackles

Void shackles are built from supernatural crystals that form in the Void—materials that dig painfully into the flesh of those they restrain. A set of void shackles functions as superior manacles, but while they are in the Void, the crystals fluctuate in response to the plane's energy, which increases all DCs to remove them or Escape by 1 to DC 43. If a check to remove void shackles from a creature fails, the wearer of the manacles takes 10d6 void damage (DC 37 fortitude save). While a creature is manacled, the void shackles attempt to counteract any teleportation effect that targets the manacled creature, with a counteract rank of 9th and a +25 modifier to the roll. If the teleportation effect is countered, the manacled creature takes 10d6 void damage (DC 37 fortitude save).

Void shackles can be placed on incorporeal creatures as if they were not incorporeal. An incorporeal creature manacled by void shackles cannot pass through solid objects. Even a soul can be Restrained via void shackles , provided the soul was of a 17th- or lower-level creature in life. A soul held in void shackles cannot move on to the afterlife, cannot become undead, and can be transported by simply transporting the shackles.
