A first, quick and dirty attempt:

{lo'e xance lo'e jamfu cu simsa lo ka ce'u goi ko'a zo'u ce'u tadji lo
ka ce'u ka'elre lo ka ce'u cadzu fi ko'a}

{simsa} could be substituted by something more specific, and the {lo'e}
creatures could be properties instead, of course.

On the other hand, there's the question of what a {tadji} really is;
specifically, whether a {tadji be lo ka co'e lo'e xance} itself refers
to hands in some way. I'd rather not get into that now.


Another vague, naturalistic way, similar to yours with {do'e}:

{pa'a gi lo'e xance gi lo'e jamfu zo'u ka'e ka'elre lo ka cadzu fi ri}
