SPHERE OF NATH
Aura strong conjuration; CL 20th; Weight 1 lb.
When held, this dark, palm-sized glass sphere lets you
use the physical attributes of another location you are
familiar with For example, you can use the advantage
of magical standing stones on a mountaintop while in
a basement miles away, an underwater cavern, or your
own spellcasting chamber In a sense, you are in two
places at once However, the properties do not extend
beyond your person It also allows you to meet any
location component of a ritual or spell You cannot cast
a spell through the connection to bypass the normal
range restrictions of spells (Thus, a spell you cast
with the aid of the sphere still takes effect from your
location, not from the location the sphere is connected
to.)

SHINING TRAPEZOHEDRON Aura Strong conjuration; CL 20th; Slot none; Weight 50 lbs.
Through the shining surfaces of this massive crystal trapezohedron, one can see through all time and space
For every 4 rounds the user looks into the Shining Trapezohendron, the user can cast a divination spell
(90% accuracy) Every 4 rounds that the user stares into the crystal, the user must succeed at a DC 15 Will saving throw or become shaken for 1 hour Note, multiple shaken effects are cumulative, so if the user
is already shaken and fails a save, that user becomes frightened If the save fails by 10 or more or the result is
a natural 1, the user gains an insanity (see page 94)
If the user watches for 5 minutes straight, the Shining Trapezohendron summons the Haunter (an avatar form
of Nyarlathotep described on page 177) The Haunter
is not under the user’s control
D E S T R U C T I O N
To destroy the Shining Trapezohedron, it must be bathed
in the heart blood of the Hunter, at which point it dulls, loses its magical properties, and can be shattered
