Emerald Eye

The Emerald Eye is a powerful magical artifact associated with the Primordial deity Iris. Much like its sister relic, the Prismatic Crescent, it is held by a high ranking member of the Viridian Circle - in the Eye's case, it is always possessed by the current High Priestess of Iris assigned to Irididendros.

Appearance

The Emerald Eye is a sphere shaped gemstone set in a circlet. It is emerald green in color, somewhat translucent like its namesake, although it is not a true emerald. Rather, it was expelled by Irididendros in the Draconic Era, and is composed of the fossilized sap of Irididendros, similar to amber in mundane trees. The 'eye' part of the moniker comes from the chatoyancy (a.k.a. 'cat's eye') visual effect exhibited by the gem.

The circlet that the Eye is laid into is primarily composed of an alloy of platinum and iridium.

Properties

The Emerald Eye, when worn, greatly enhances the wearer's perception, both mundane and auratic. In addition, the wearer becomes immune to mind-altering auracraft.
