A marvel of modern abjuration and industrial enchantment, the Sentinel Charm is a slick, street-legal protective talisman developed by Arcanum Industries—the premier name in “Applied Warding Solutions.” Forged from bright, glyph-etched silver in the shape of a stylized falcon’s head, it pins easily to a coat, uniform, or breastplate and hums faintly when fully charged.
Set into the charm’s polished surface are three wafer-thin sapphire chips, Each chip stores a single cast of the Shield spell, ready to deploy in the blink of an eye.
Though the Sentinel saw a rocky start—infamous among Federation advanced field units for early test models that misfired, overcharged, or catastrophically detonated—the newer production line has been “fully” refined. Or at least, that’s what the company assures. Complaints have dropped. Survivors are rare. Public interest? Never higher. Now a top seller in city shops from Silver River to Flint Rock, the charm is popular with bounty hunters, wandering knights, and civil enforcers who want just enough magic to survive a rough scrape
