TIMELESS L O C K E TThis platinum disk features numeric engravings, geomet ric shapes, and arcing lines on both sides. Opening a clasp at the bottom reveals a glass face atop a set of gauges. Each gauge is a circle of runes and numbers arranged around a central post that has moving hands attached to it, which point to a rune, sigil, or number. Dials set around the edges allow the user to adjust the hands to different positions as desiied. A timeless locket is an accurate timepiece that shows what time it is in the user's location. The locket also steals a bit of time each day, storing those borrowed moments for use w h e n the owner needs them most. Explore the Timeless Sanctuary: According to sages, the Timeless was an order of mages who had the power to move backward and forward through time, watching or altering events to suit their purposes. Some calamity wiped out the order, but stories say that the mages' abandoned dominions floating in the Astral Sea still exist, and that timeless lockets have been recovered from some of them. Reach the Plane of Moments: In addition to the Plane of Dreams, the Plane of Mirrors, and the Far Realm, there are a myriad of strange realities, pocket dimensions, and alternate worlds where the impossible becomes possible. Legends speak of one such world where countless golden threads stretch across infinity, each a reality in itself, and the march of history can be seen by reading these strands. In the thickest tangles, representing those monumental events that shape the world and reality, strange and terrible guardians are said to safeguard the strands from tampering. These beings reputedly guard lost treasures from another time, including such items as a timeless locket.

SOUL SHARD TALISMANDeath giants and death titans are known for their soul shrouds, composed of souls they have torn from fallen foes. Small pieces of a slain death giant's or death titan's armor can be enchanted to make soul shard talismans, which emulate the nature of the soul shroud. W h e n an enemy of a talisman's wearer falls in combat, its soul is temporarily trapped inside the talisman. This is both a boon and a burden to the wearer. The talisman's wearer can release the soul to heal himself. But until he does so. unpleasant mental impressions from the trapped soul seep through the amulet into the wearer's mind, ending only when the soul is released. S h a r d for S a l e : Markets in the Shadowfell carry exotic assortments of goods, including relics of battles both ancient and recent. Interested parties can track down a soul shard talisman by asking the right people, though the denizens of the Shadowfell aren't too chatty with strang ers (or anyone, for that matter).

For ages, monarchs and despots have used thrones of dominion to sway the thoughts and opinions of their subjects. Stories of the first throne's creation are incon sistent-it's a defining characteristic of the item that it inspires loyalty in followers, w h o refuse to believe that any other ruler but their own could have produced such a marvel. Prominent in places where rulers have or had few qualms about maintaining control using magic, thrones of dominion were an integral part of the tiefling empire of Bael Turath, and they can be found today in many drow cities and githyanki citadels. Depose the Tyrant: Anyone who has a number of loyal followers in sway might have a throne of dominion. It's said that Ravel the Ruthless sits on an expensive throne in his hold, and should he be dethroned, none would be saddened.

Choosing a magic tattoo entails more than pic king out a n enchanted tool that is easy to hide and dillicult to remove. It changes something about your nature in a subtle way. Magic tattoo effects interact with a char acter's intrinsic properties, such as healing surges or action points. One's mortal form can contain only a small amount of foreign magic, however, so a character c a n have only one magic tattoo al a time.
