The Beastial Hex Amulet is a piece of enchanted jewelry that has gained popularity in the far northern land of Kalamar, especially among novice mages. Its fame has since spread worldwide, making it a sought-after item in certain magic and enchanter shops. The amulet, often fashioned from silver and adorned with a gemstone, is imbued with the magical spell Beast Bond.
The Beastial Hex Amulet is typically valued at 300 to 600 gold pieces due to its unique enchantment and widespread popularity.
Originally crafted by the reclusive enchanters of Kalamar, the Beastial Hex Amulet was designed to aid novice mages in forming bonds with the natural world. Over time, its utility and effectiveness made it a favored tool among adventurers, hunters, and beastmasters across various lands. Legends speak of early amulets being gifted to young mages as a rite of passage, helping them understand and connect with the beasts around them.
Special Features:
- Beast Bond: While wearing this amulet, you can use an action to cast the Beast Bond spell without expending a spell slot. You establish a telepathic link with one beast you touch that is friendly to you or charmed by you. The spell fails if the beast’s Intelligence is 4 or higher. The link is active while you and the beast are within line of sight of each other. The link lasts for 10 minutes.
- Effect: Through the link, the beast can understand your telepathic messages to it, and it can telepathically communicate simple emotions and concepts back to you. While the link is active, the beast gains advantage on attack rolls against any creature within 5 feet of you that you can see.
- Recharge: The amulet’s enchantment can be used once per short rest.
