This item appears in two parts: one is a three-foot length of chain attaching a ball of metal about eight inches in diameter to an anklet with a key hole. The other part is a key. When not active, the item weighs about ten pounds. It appears very much like a normal ball-and-chain assembly.
When this anklet is closed around a creature's leg (or other appendage), it will shrink or enlarge to accommodate targets from Tiny to Large size. The ball then takes on the weight of 200 pounds, which will hold most victims securely.
The holder of the key can issue commands which will disable the weight (returning it to 10 pounds) to allow the prisoner to move more freely or to return to 200 pounds at will. The holder of the key can also order the anklet to unlock.
The ball also has three charges, which can be used for additional effects. The holder of the key can expend one charge to cast levitate, which lasts for up to 10 minutes. The victim must save vs. DC 16 or be lifted 20 feet.
The holder can also spend two charges to cast hold monster on the creature being held, requiring a DC 16 save or else the target is paralyzed for up to one minute.
The holder can dismiss these effects at will, but need not concentrate to continue them for the stated duration.
The item regains d4-1 used charges at dawn each day.
