A teleport gem was a device that teleported the user.[1]
Powers[]
Teleport gems teleported the user to a predetermined location.[1]
History[]
One such teleport gem was owned by Florin Falconhand in the mid-14th century DR; it was keyed to Evermeet, where the elven mother of his child lived.[1]
Another such gem was owned by Queen Filfaeryl Obarskyr of Cormyr, who refused to use it to transport herself to safety during the ambush in Thundaerlyn Hall, in Year of Rogue Dragons, 1373 DR, at the hands of the Rightful Conspiracy. The gem was instead shattered by one of the conspirators while trying to skewer her with a blade.[2]
The mage Carmanstos of Raven's Bluff created teleport gems of his own by imbuing enchantments in gemstones, which released spells when shattered.[3] Another mage in Raven's Bluff, Aleesia, may have furnished a different kind of teleport gem to adventurers, possibly a silver orb which she may have named as a gem by mistake.[4][note 1]
