The Morning Star Aldan is a magic sphere. It holds 3 stages, Dormant, Awakened, & Exalted.
"The Morning Star Aldan was created & wielded by one of Selune's most independent and audacious followers, Merlin. Merlin was a Divine Life Sorcerer who came to Selune after a chance encounter in the woods that occurred as she left her devastated homeland following a terrible war holding a secret. It has been said that only a follower of Selune who is also a child of Belialuin can truly unlock Aldan to it's exalted state."
Once attuned to a user, Aldan will float next to user within 5ft. It does not need to be carried, but can be if the user chooses to do so.
Dormant State: In it's dormant state, Aldan functions as a spell casting focus. Casting spells from Aldan bypasses the VSM requirements of any spell contained within Aldan. It holds 10 charges that will refill 1d4+2 expended charges at dawn each day. The user can cast the following from Aldan using the charges:
- Bless: Cost: 1 charge. Action: You bless up to three creatures of your choice within range. (Range 30 ft) Whenever a target makes an attack roll or a saving throw before the spell ends, the target can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to the attack roll or saving throw. The user can Bless 1 additional target by expending an additional charge for each extra target. (CONCENTRATION, Duration: 1 minute.)
- Aid: Cost: 2 charges. Action: Your spell bolsters your allies with toughness and resolve. Choose up to three creatures within range. (Range 30 ft) Each target's hit point maximum and current hit points increase by 5 for the duration.
- Remove Curse: Cost 4 charges. Action: At your touch, all curses affecting one creature or object end. If the object is a cursed magic item, its curse remains, but the spell breaks its owner's attunement to the object so it can be removed or discarded.
