This silver amulet is deceptively pristine, its surface engraved with runes that shimmer faintly with hues of blue and violet. Its appearance exudes a sense of protection and assurance, promising safety from magical harm to those who wear it. Yet, beneath its gleaming exterior lies an insidious truth—a vessel of latent malice. When worn, the amulet emits a faint hum, almost soothing, yet unsettling to those who perceive its deeper essence.
Effect: The wearer of this amulet gains resistance to magical damage, including damage from area-of-effect spells and direct magical attacks. The amulet suppresses the destructive force of magic, reducing harm and empowering its wearer with a false sense of invulnerability.
Stored Malice: The amulet absorbs the damage it resists, collecting it like drops of venom within its runic carvings. This stored energy grows over time, radiating faint traces of magical malevolence. When the amulet is unattuned, its malicious purpose is unleashed—the stored damage is released in a violent burst, targeting the nearest creature. The damage is dealt as if the magical resistance never occurred, and its force manifests in the form of a shimmering explosion of violet runes. If the wearer unattunes the amulet, they are often caught unprepared for the stored malice they unknowingly harbored.
