Phoenix NecklaceEquipment 20

Source Pathfinder #166: Despair on Danger Island
Weight negligible

This brilliant jewelry is made from fine silver interwoven with a uniquely malleable form of ruby that causes the necklace to glimmer like a flickering fire. Hao Jin created the necklaces to mitigate the potential of death during the Ruby Phoenix Tournament pre-qualifier, and she specially attuned each phoenix necklace to the silver feathers she created for the pre-qualifying round. While the silver feathers themselves aren't magical, they are required to activate the necklace's power. Each team starts with 3 feathers hidden in their headquarters; they acquire more through challenges and events. Additionally, the tournament emissary's enforcers have the ability to deliver messages to the necklace's wearer at any time by casting Sending, though the wearer can't respond.

Activate Three Actions command, envision

Effect You select any number of willing creatures you can see within 30 feet, including yourself. The selected creatures can make nonlethal attacks without taking a penalty to their attack rolls. This effect remains in place until you remove the necklace or use this activation again.

Activate 10 minutes (envision, Interact)

Effect The necklace consumes one of the attached silver feathers and casts 7th-level Raise Dead. Activating this ability is particularly costly and every activation requires consuming one more silver feather than the previous activation.

Destruction Once a phoenix necklace has 10 silver feathers attached, Hao Jin can transform the necklace into a phoenix fighting fan, a process which requires 3 Interact actions.

Traits

Rare

This rarity indicates that a rules element is very difficult to find in the game world. A rare feat, spell, item or the like is available to players only if the GM decides to include it in the game, typically through discovery during play. Creatures with this trait are rare. They typically can't be summoned. The DC of Recall Knowledge checks related to these creatures is increased by 5.

Healing

A healing effect restores a creature's body, typically by restoring Hit Points, but sometimes by removing diseases or other debilitating effects.

Magical

Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. A magical item radiates a magic aura infused with its dominant school of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.

Necromancy

Effects and magic items with this trait are associated with the necromancy school of magic, typically involving forces of life and death.
