The amulet of Alcedor was a unique piece of jewelry enchanted to allow the wearer to cast the hold person spell at will.[1]
“
I'd grown tired of every idiot with a sword thinking they could get a bit of easy money by harassing this old man. Hmph! Force ends up solving nothing, so I created my amulet to prove to them that my open fist is more powerful than their closed ones.
”
— Alcedor on his amulet[2]
Description[]
The jewel of the amulet was a large sapphire carved into the shape of a fist. The sapphire hung on a chain of platinum links.[1]
Powers[]
When activated by being touched or with a comnmand word, the amulet activated. The hand opened up, and shot a beam of blue light at its target, enveloping them in Alcedor's magic.[2] The victims held by the magic of the amulet also fell under the influence of a vampiric touch spell, feeling their life force drain away to heal the wearer of the amulet if they so desired.[1]
History[]
The amulet of Acledor was created by Alcedor Kolat and always worn by him.[1]
