This amulet is made of heavy iron chains and garnished with a fiery red agate carved in the shape of a shield wrapped by a pointed tail. The amulet feels nearly weightless, until it is worn.
Once attuned, an imp is summoned that follows the wearer an acts as their familiar, as if by the Find Familiar spell. The wearer cannot have another familiar while attuned to this amulet. The imp can never be more than 100 feet from the wearer. If the wearer is teleported, the imp teleports with you. It can still be dismissed to its pocket dimension as normal. If the imp is banished, it is instead transported to its pocket dimension and can be released as normal.
While the imp is not in its pocket dimension, you gain resistance to all types of damage except fire damage, to which you are immune, and radiant damage, to which you are vulnerable.
If the imp drops to 0HP, its soul is free to escape to the afterlife. The wearer then dies.
Each day at midnight, roll a d20. On a roll of 1, the amulet loses some control over the trapped soul. A Pact of the Chain Warlock has advantage on the roll, but this dice otherwise cannot be modified or rerolled in any way. The imp no longer obeys you for the next 24 hours, and cannot be dismissed to its pocket dimension. It must still remain within 100 feet of the wearer, but will continually seek harm in an effort to die. The imp cannot attack itself, and will noisily wail in anguish as it begs to be released.
If the wearer ever has 0HP but has not died, the imp exhibits this same behavior.
Cursed: This amulet is cursed and cannot be removed from the wearer by normal means. To end attunement with this item, the wearer must undergo a rigorous 8-hour exorcism by a trained priest or cleric, severing the amulet's link to the Nine Hells and releasing the bound soul from within.
If the wearer dies while attuned to this amulet, the imp dies as well and your soul is bound to the amulet to become the next imp.
