Message plate

A message plate was a magic item that could be used to send a message.

Description
A message plate resembled a gold-hued disc, wide enough to rest on one's hand, with studs around the side. A glowing, colorless, animated image of the one who sent the message was projected above it. It made a plink sound when deactivated.

History
In the Year of the Prince, 1357 DR, the wizard Parwyyd Hanifar sent a message plate with a false image of Priam Agrivar to lure Kyriani Agrivar to the site of the Great Door on the outskirts of Waterdeep. Kyriani believed it had been sent by Priam.
