The belt of the witch king was an enchanted belt that once belonged to Zhengyi the Witch-King.[3][note 1]

Description[]

The belt was a series of small obsidian spheres charged with arcane power, which were each connected to the next by a small silver link of chain.[1][2]

Powers[]

The belt fortified the wearer's endurance. If its wearer was an arcane spellcaster, it could leverage their magical power to heal them if they became seriously injured.[1][2]

History[]

The belt of the witch king was kept in a secret compartment in the back of Zhengyi's throne, alongside other treasures. It remained there for over a century after Zhengyi's defeat at the hands of Gareth Dragonsbane.[3]
