Description.
This eerie necklace features a pendant shaped like a smooth, glossy black spider abdomen, cool to the touch and polished like obsidian. Eight delicate silver-wire legs wrap around the pendant as though clutching it—so fine and natural they almost appear alive. The pendant hangs from a thin chain of darkened silver, resting against the wearer’s chest. When a message is sent or received, the silver legs give the faintest, unsettling twitch.
Lolthbound Connection.
Zha'linth Velve functions as a Sending Stone with the following alterations:
-
The wearer may use the necklace to cast Sending once per day.
-
It is permanently paired with its twin, held by the High Priestess of Lolth.
-
When a reply is sent to the wearer, the High Priestess’s voice whispers from just behind the wearer’s left ear, rather than from the pendant. Only the wearer hears the whisper.
Unsettling Oversight.
While worn, the necklace imparts a subtle sense of surveillance—a lingering awareness that someone is listening. At the DM’s discretion, the High Priestess may initiate brief messages or commands through the connection, as though casting Sending herself.
A Lifeline and a Leash.
This item does not require attunement. Anyone wearing the necklace may activate it and receives its whispering responses.
