This ring appears to have a ruby set inside it. Ring had no magical properties on its own. When a spell is cast that has a gold price, PC can use ruby instead of gold price for spell use and the crystal is expended even if the material component usually isn't.
------------- DM's only below--------------
The ruby in the ring is merely a magical construct created by a fiendish loan shark named Akdevir ("Ahk-Dev-Ear"). Three days after using the crystal, Akdevir will send an Imp to collect the spell's amount of gold with 10% interest (ie 1,000 gold for resurrection = imp requires 1,100 gold). If PC gives gold cost without hassle, Imp may give new crystal for ring in hopes of furthering their cooperation. If PC can not/ refuses to pay, Akdevir will send more and more powerful fiends after PC to collect, with interest racking up as well (10% per 3 days past due), but Akdevir will happily take the soul of the borrower instead as another form of payout.
Notes: Buff, Utility, Jewelry
