malevolent Harawep's Spider with a bloodgem hourglass
Look: Marked at even intervals with aposematic bands of white, the spindly legs function as the clasp, allowing the item to be worn. Numerous scars mar its chitinous carapace, while a sanguine hourglass accentuates its sleek black abdomen. Glimmering with a gloaming iridescence, eight tiny black pearls give the arachnid a baleful gaze.

FOCUS: The Harawep's Spider has a definite magical pattern, which is apparently a ritual focus. The focus has been enchanted with sublime care and reinforced with an Analogous Patterns sub-enchantment. It should be compatible with any ritual.


STUDY: You recognize that the Spider is a ritual focus. It's a tool that assists in harnessing the mana required to cast ritual spells, if it is invoked while the spell is being prepared.

In particular, this directly assists in harnessing mana. When activated, the Spider will accumulate energy from mana streams that pass through it, stored within a core of specially enchanted cambrinth. The enchantment is designed for fluid discharge rather than lifespan, so the magician must skillfully direct the spell energy within moments of reaching the desired charge.

The mana manipulation done through ritual foci are crude and often sharply limited by the design of the enchantment. Most ritual foci are limited to being useful only to a specific book of magic, though foci designed with incredible skill can be more broadly useful. No known ritual focus is fine enough to work at a level above the blunt strokes of empowering a ritual, much to the relief of their users' job security.
