Howling wolf charm

Howling wolf charms were small enchanted trinkets created by the Reghedmen shamans of the Tribe of the Wolf.

"This? A wolf totem... a good luck charm. I won it from my cousin's husband who thought he'd beat me at my best game! Perhaps some dark day I'll run across a man with a stronger gut than me, then I'lI pass the charm on to him..."

- Guthewulfe Henghelm

Description
These magic charms were small pieces of silver, fashioned in semblance of a wolf's head.

Powers
To activate an howling wolf charm, one must grip it hard and howl into the sky. This summoned a gray wolf under the command of the charm's owner. It was believed that they had limited power. With time and use, they became tarnished and eventually turned into silver powder once the last wolf was summoned. The strength of summoned wolves was similar to that of creatures summoned via the summon creature III spell.

History
In the, one of these charms belonged to Guthewulfe Henghelm, a boisterous traveling trader of the Tribe of the Wolf who visited the town of Targos before returning back home with new goods. Guthewulfe was eager to bet the trinket in a braehg drinking competition. Circa the, an amulet version of the charm was a part of the curio collection of Mintassan the Magnificent, a planeswalker from Westgate.
