Arrowhead of Marking

These normal-looking stone arrowheads must be shaped by the being enchanting them. The common use of these devices is as dungeon and maze markers.

If you place this item on a stone surface and use an action to speak its command word, the arrowhead sinks into the surface of the stone. There it fuses, leaving a clearly visible arrowhead mark, pointing in the direction it was set.

These items may be used to point directions, or multiples can be placed to form code symbols or messages in the stone walls, floors, and ceilings of buildings, cave networks, or dungeons. Harpers often place them on stones in outdoor areas, to mark trails or burial sites. Typical treasure hoards contain 2d12 of these arrowheads.
