Enchanted Earth Bracelet

Weight: ¼ oz, Value: 500 sp, DB1 This enchanted bracelet covered in gems has been crafted from the cord of earth elementals and luck. It was crafted by the Wizards & Mages of Freetown.
The Bracelet can be enchanted by casting 'lesser enchantment' spells on it as follows:

  • It can store two 'lesser enchantments' plus one per 5 full points of Perception that the entity wearing the Bracelet has.
  • All of the 'lesser enchantments' are able to affect the entity wearing the Bracelet (at the time they were cast).
  • Each cast of 'lesser enchantments' on the Bracelet has to be from a different adept.
  • Each subsequent 'lesser enchantments' cast on the Bracelet is harder to perform. This adds a +20 to the cast chance dice roll per time. Ie. On the 5th cast of 'lesser enchantments' adds +80 to the casters dice roll (the first cast doesn't count).
  • Each 'lesser enchantments' on the Bracelet has to be of a different rank.

The name of the caster and rank are:
Comments: Keep in mind that Rank 20+ 'lesser enchantments' are the only ranks in which the duration is permanent. It is expected that people will use Enhance Enchantment to get over rank 20 in which case the duration will become permanent.
