This piece of jewelry is designed to be worn on the hand, with chains connecting between the finger and linked under and over the hand. On the palm-side of this accessory lies its most captivating feature, a purple and crimson-flecked orb. This orb is in fact one of the eyes of Marshal General Garn. In 1475, he was ambushed in garrison and eliminated by Squad X7E.
Pit Viper was intended to be a covert operation where we mapped the defenses of Ebonstar and assessed the garrison size. This intelligence was then to be shared with the intelligence division of an organization within the Farinteen Alliance. When we encountered a prominent leader of the Black Tide, we decided to seize the opportunity and eliminate him. This was meant to earn us high esteem in the guild for capitalizing on a favorable circumstance, yet it also resulted in stern reprimands for jeopardizing the mission - potentially failing, perishing, and losing the clandestine information we had collected.
We returned one of Garn's eyes to Outpost Prime as proof of the mission's success. Several years later, Outpost Prime was pillaged by the githyanki. A decade after that, I discovered that a githyanki necromancer seized the eye and is rumored to have crafted a potent piece of jewelry from it.
Teeth, a member of Squad X7E, from his semi-autobiographical novel - "The Squad"
| The Forstneblin assassin that killed Lûrë had made it her mission to kill as many githyanki as she could before age or death overtook her. Her hatred of the githyanki stemmed from an attack on Voruner by the Hand of Gith. This attack from the skies resulted in the destruction of her entire neighborhood, and the death of her entire family and many friends. |
In 1476, Outpost Prime was seized by the Har'kish. Among the items they plundered from the Sanguine vaults was the eyeball of Garn. A githyanki necromancer named Hashurin employed this eyeball as a component in a magical artifact. Upon its completion, he bestowed it upon his secret lover, the anti-paladin Lûrë. The artifact remained in Lûrë's possession for three decades. When she was assassinated by a contract killer hired by Aldassinen, Lûrë's body was left to be consumed by wolves or any other passing predators. This marked the last known sighting of the Eye of Garn.
Unless otherwise specified, the abilities of the Eye of Garn operate as if cast by an 18th-level spellcaster.
