Enchanting Talismans

 

In order to enchant a talisman, you must have the skill “Create Talisman” You must also find a Forge in-game. This is represented by a sheet of paper taped to the wall which says “Forge”.

 

Rules for Talisman-craft

1. You must acquire a talisman tag. This is a small card which must be carried with the talisman at all times. If the talisman is stolen, you must hand over the tag as well. If the talisman is used up, the tag must be ripped up. The tag must be signed by the Game Master, Dan Comstock. When you get the tag, you must give him the material components you spent at the forge.
2. You may choose the form of a talisman. It can be a necklace, a bracelet, a favorite mug, a shampoo bottle, anything that does not already have an in-game tag, like an existing talisman, quicksilver, a weapon, et cetera.
3. If the talisman requires an activation phrase or action, the creator of the talisman chooses what this is. This means that in order to activate the properties of the talisman, you must say a phrase, perform an action, or something similar. This can be as simple as “Praise be to Vecna!” or something complicated like a poem. Actions can be anything from a gesture (like clapping ones hands), or a task, like drinking a glass of water, or climbing a tree.
4. A person may only have one Talisman active at a time. After a talisman is used, another talisman cannot be used for one minute afterwards.
