Magic Items: Necklace of Planar Adaptation

Necklace of Planar Adaptation

2,000 XP, 20,000 GP

Background

      There are only three known examples of this magic item. The creation of this item is known only to a few powerful archmages and it is likely they have not bothered to make them as the process is tedious, even for item creation, and dangerous. The chains are made of finely wrought precious metals with a sphere of 1 inch diameter hanging from the bottom. The sphere is bound in an ornate pattern of green and red metal. The sphere is made of the essences of the inner and the outer planes, half of which must be assembled on the prime material plane in a magic dead zone and the other on the Outlands at the base of the Spire. Both halves must then be fused together, with the ritual taking place on the Astral and Ethereal planes simultaneously.

Powers

     This wondrous item makes the wearer completely immune to gases of all types, as they do not require any form of respiration while wearing it.
     Additionally, wearers are able to act as if they are a native of any plane they visit, which means that they can also see portals to other planes that non-native or non-planar beings would not be able to see. With a few minutes of study at a portal they can attempt to figure out what keys will activate the portal, 3d6 minutes of study and an Intelligence check at -2 penalty.
     This necklace will allow the wearer to go for 10 days without the need for food, water, or rest if for some reason they are unable to meet their normal daily requirements. This ability will require an equal number of days to be able to be used again based on the longest of the needs provided. For example, if the wearer is deprived of sleep for 2 days and water for five days the necklace will need five days to recharge, not seven days.
