Description: an item with a mounted gemstone of a colour or type appropriate to the Bound Elemental

Powers:

  1. Counts as a permanently Activated Elemental of a certain Class and Level for the Caster to Cast Elementalist Spells.
  2. Some Rings may give automatic pluses on Spells it performs.
  3. A few Rings have a permanent telepathic link between wearer and Elemental.

e.g. an Activated Elemental Ring might be a Bound L5 Enchanter Elemental giving +1 on all Enchanter Spells up to L5 provided the Throw (after its plus) does not exceed the maximum T which it is capable of producing.

Notes:

  1. For Rings, see General Notes on Magic Rings.

  2. Gemstone is a Bound Elemental.  It may be Activated into Conference using its True Name.

  3. The Elemental will not freely reveal its True Name.  The original owner of the Item will normally know its True Name, and some Items may have it inscribed upon them, often in a hidden way (e.g. a Fire Ring would reveal the True Name by casting the Ring into fire).

  4. Ring is only usable by an Elementalist.

  5. The Elemental counts as Activated for the purpose of the Activation Cost (in sec & SP) to Activate further Elementals, but this may be circumvented by discarding the Item to Activate another Elemental and then retrieving it again.

Encumbrance:

Rings: 2
Wands: 15
