Jewel of Attacks

This large gem appears to be worth 1,000 to 5,000 g.p. and possibly magical, but it is cursed.

Once found (usually on or near a corpse) the jewel makes the next creature to touch it (even using implements or gloves) it's host. Even should the jewel be taken from the host and discarded or semingly destroyed, the jewel will return to the host, becoming hidden somewhere on their person.

Curse of Monstrous Attention. The jewel will double chances of random encounters. If the group possessing the jewel flees or evades the encounter, the creatures encountered will have double the standard chance to pursue.

• This curse can be removed with any application of a remove curse effect, however, the host will not cast nor allow this to knowingly be cast upon their person. An atonement spell will also remove the curse from the host. When the curse is removed, the jewel can be dropped. However, the first one that touches it, even to destroy it, whether by hand-held or missile weapon, becomes the host (and in this case, the jewel will not be destroyed). Area attacks might be used to destroy a hostless jewel of attacks without bonding a host.
