Crystal amulet

From Discworld MUD Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

A crystal amulet is a magical amulet which provides a source of light for its wearer, at a cost of some of their GP. It appears to be very similar to a yellow stone ring.

Usage and effects

To use a crystal amulet, simply wear it. It will immediately cause the wearer to glow with enough light to see by in night-time conditions. Whilst worn, it consumes the GP of the caster, taking 30 GP immediately, and then again at random intervals between 30 and 60 seconds, until the amulet is removed or until the wearer doesn't have the required 30 GP when the amulet attempts to drain, in which case the light flickers out and the amulet stops consuming GP. Once the light flickers out, in order to make the ring glow again, the wearer must remove it and put it back on.

Similar to yellow stone rings, crystal amulets do not have consumed magical charges on use, nor do they require a skillcheck against magic.items.worn.amulet.

Acquisition

  • Twingo's Twisted Trinkets stall in the middle of Sator Square in Ankh-Morpork.
