Words is a small wooden and gold cylinder with complex engravings about a foot in length and 2 or 3 inches in diameter. Embedded on the cylinder are 5 ivory wheels. Above each wheel is a small blue glowing gemstone. Each of these wheels shows one letter of the alphabet. Upon its discovery, the word "Words" is embedded onto the wheels. With each wheel having one of the letters. 

Each of the wheels can be turned into one of the letters of the alphabet, when the 5 wheels spell out a word, an effect related to the word (and up to the DMs discretion) occurs. All effects are instantaneous and expend a charge unless the effect is labeled with, "until the word is changed." When an effect is ended with "until the word is changed" a charge is expended when the word is changed, and the effect is ended. This item has 5 charges. Each time an effect is activated through the spelling of a word, a charge is expended. Words regains 1d4 charges every dawn. When a charge is expended, one of the blue glowing gemstones fades stops glowing to signify the spending of a charge.

This item cannot be destroyed by any means except by the LOSER effect.
