Claw of Nezram

The claw of Nezram was a unique magic item enchanted by the wizard Nezram.

Description
The claw was a replica of a humanoid hand that was made from ivory and studded with rubies. Sharp talons stood in place of regular fingernails.

Powers
The claw was an intelligent sentient item that initially battled the will of anyone trying to control it.

The claw of Nezram possessed several powers. The most mundane of these was scratching any itch the wielder had when commanded to do so. The claw could be order to attack enemies in combat, slashing at them and attempting to grip their throats where it would squeeze until the target died. If the claw latched onto a target's weapon hand then they were unable to use that hand in combat. The claw could also glow red if rubies were nearby.

History
Five claws of Nezram were known to exist. All were held in the possession of the powerful wizard Hodkamset.
