A heavy, tarnished silver amulet shaped like a hollowed-out ribcage, holding a beating, dark crimson gemstone at its center. When you place it around your neck, fine, needle-like tendrils pierce your skin, binding the amulet to your chest.
The amulet unnaturally pumps thick, dark vitality through your veins, artificially bloating your lifeforce while structurally rotting away your natural resilience. Your flesh grows pale, your breath comes shallow, and your body struggles to fight off toxins or maintain focus under duress—yet your flesh stubbornly refuses to fail, sealing gaping wounds with unnatural speed.
Curse. This item is cursed. Once attuned, it cannot be removed unless targeted by a Remove Curse spell or similar magic. While attuned, your Constitution score is reduced by 4. However, the amulet’s dark magic surges through your bloodline, granting you a bonus of +5 hit points per level (resulting in a net gain of +1 hit point per level after accounting for the Constitution penalty).
Notes: Bonus: Constitution Score, Bonus: Hit Points per Level
