A free-standing statue in an overwhelmingly ancient Mesopotamian style, about four or five feet high, depicting a male figure believed to be Ningishzida, Physician of the Anunnaki, He of the Red Groves. The figure's "legs" are hidden under what looks like a segmented coat or cloak, the segments making him look a bit like a half-worm or snake. The torso of the statue wears a mantle and girdle that is lined with stone representations of gems and filigrees. From the figure's shoulders sprout two horned serpents that eventually intertwine in a kind of halo/caduceus above the statue's head. And the statue's head and face differ significantly stylistically from the rest of the statue. It is lifelike in a Greco-Roman style and the face is very clearly Marshall Redgrave's.
In order to be used, this statue must be placed in an interior room or a bounded outdoor area (some sort of man-made boundary must be present: a ring of stones, a fenced-in area, a paved area in the midst of grass or bare earth, etc.) The statue affects an area roughly the size of a typical temple atop a Sumerian ziggurat, roughly 75 x 50 feet. The statue's dedication to the underworld/vegetation/healing deity Ningishzida creates a healing aura, which grows more powerful with the more human beings remain within the area of effect.
At least three people must be within the aura for the healing effects to begin; it does not matter if those within the aura are wounded, fatigued, or in perfect health. For every 3 human beings within the area of effect, all people within the aura recover 1 HP every hour and 1 FP every five minutes. Therefore, if a group of 12 human beings remain within the zone for an hour, all 12 people will heal 4 HP and recover up to 4 FP every five minutes. While healing, those inside the aura feel an ineffable, penetrative sense of joy, contentment, safety, and love radiating at first from the statue... and then, eventually, from their fellow-worshippers for a prolonged period of time after exposure to the statue.
All conscious human beings who spend more than five minutes within the area of effect gain the following Disadvantages for 1d days (each person rolls separately for duration):
Sense of Duty (to the other people who were in the aura of the statue)
Berserk (only triggered when one of the other people who were in the aura is harmed)
Infatuation (with the other people who were in the aura, mechanically equivalent to the Lecherousness Disadvantage but not necessarily sexual; the psychological draw between those who were inside the aura can be one or more of a combination of a sense of awe, duty, familial love, puppy love, and/or sexual attraction; basically those who were healed by He of the Red Groves have experienced the touch of a god; something no other mortal could obviously possibly understand.)
