Cursed Items

Bracelet of Corruption
Aura Moderate necromancy; CL 7th; Slot Wrists; Price 4,000 Cp

This snake-skin bracelet registers as a bracelet of protection (equivalent to a ring of protection) to detect spells unless a caster succeeds the identify check DC by 10 or more. It is used by royal defilers and templars to hinder the actions of the Veiled Alliance by tricking cell members into enforcing requital on their own. A preserver casting a spell while wearing this bracelet is prevented from giving energy back to the surrounding plant life, and as a result cannot preserve and becomes automatically tainted. The bracelet can only be removed by a druid or after a remove curse spell has been applied.

Bracelet of Life
Aura Moderate abjuration; CL 9th; Slot Wrists; Price 4,000 Cp

This wide inix leather bracelet has finger-length splinters of agafari wood woven into it. It is used by druids to hinder unrepentant defilers who wantonly destroy nature, such as exterminators. Its original purpose has since been bent towards a different end, the item being willingly donned by royal agents to help them infiltrate Veiled Alliance cells. A defiler casting a spell while wearing this bracelet is prevented from taking too much energy from the surrounding plant life, and as a result cannot defile. He suffers a –1 penalty to caster level and cannot extend the casting time of his spells, nor use Raze feats. The bracelet can only be removed by a druid or after a remove curse spell has been applied.

Jewel of Attacks
Aura Moderate conjuration; CL 9th; Slot None; Price 36,000 Cp

These large gleaming gems are always found affixed to an ornamentation of some kind, such as part of a fresco or statue. Such a gem registers as a stone of good luck to detect spells unless a caster succeeds the identify check DC by 10 or more. It is cursed, however, and attracts nearby creatures when carried on your person. Every day the gem is in your possession you attract as many creatures as those normally summoned through a summon nature’s ally V spell. (The DM determines the types of creature or creatures the gem attracts. He can choose one 5th-level creature per day, or a combination of lower-level creatures, as per the rules for the summon nature’s ally spells.) Creatures arrive one at a time throughout the day and immediately attack the possessor of the jewel, fighting to the death. Once picked up, the gem cannot be disposed of by any nonmagical means — if it is thrown away or smashed, it instantly reappears somewhere on your person. If a remove curse spell is cast upon a jewel of attacks, or if its possessor dies, the item reappears on its original fixture. The possessor can also put the gem back into its fixture, putting a stop to the curse.
