Scarab of deception

Scarabs of deception were magic items that deceived divination magic.

Powers
The wearer of a this brooch was able to deceive divination attempts targeted at them. The scarab of deception alerted the wearer to the exact type of divination being attempted upon them, but not from whence it came. Aware of the intrusion, the wearer could pick which information was received by the divination attempt or provide false information. These items had 9–14 charges and each use expended a single charge.

History
These magical items, and many others like them, originated in the ancient kingdoms of Nog and Kadar in Cities of the Ancients region of Zakhara and were fairly common there.

Notable Owners
Barak al-Gani, a priest of Shajar in east Zakhara, owned a scarab of deception that he boldly used to trick the powerful necromancer rulers of Ysawis.
