The device may further include a plurality of light-emitting sources displayed on an exterior surface of the body, and a mechanism may be included for selectively toggling independent ones of the light-emitting sources between illuminated and non-illuminated modes by selectively pivoting one metacarpal of the user hand region along a plurality of positions defined within the body while maintaining remaining metacarpals of the user hand region at a static position. Such a selectively toggling mechanism preferably includes a manually actuated user interface attached to the exterior surface of the body.
