Help

Ioun stones are a class of magic-imbued gem noted among scholars of the arcane arts for their ability to pass on a variety of effects and abilities to their possessors. According to psuedo-erudites, the late Tamarack the Enchanter rediscovered the art of imbuing precious gems with the iounic enchantment while digging through the remains of the ancient Istax Empire. Unfortunately, through the vagaries of strife and time, that secret is feared to be lost once again.

Info

You may activate and deactivate an ioun stone by tapping it.
