THE HEALING RING OF JAMLISO

APPEARANCE - MYTH/LORE

A ring of healing created by the mage Jamliso that remains even today an intriguing enigma. This ring has remained of interest simply because no one knows the truth surrounding it.

Appearance. This ring is single band a mixture of silver and mithral that is highly polished. It is etched with a parallel band circling the ring at each edge. It is endowed with magic to size to any finger by whoever wears it; also it heals the wearer after they are injured. Like all the enchanted items created by Jamliso, it is believed to have been crafted by the dwarven metal smith Demtak.

Myth/Lore. This ring has drawn interest almost from the day it was made. The reason for this interest is the simple fact that the mage Jamliso kept this ring out of all the enchanted items he crafted. That he kept this ring should not have brought much attention as most mages have some kind of enchanted item, if not several. What probably heightened interest may have been due to the fact he never sold a single enchanted item out of several hundred varying kinds he is purported to have crafted, simply giving them away, except this ring. It was known Jamliso could use powerful binding magic but then he would use minor enchantments to bind to an object. There were many who said he could not combine the two and only achieved this feat with this ring of healing. Others say he chose not to combine the two preferring the minor enchantments and this ring was no different. Whichever the case, he was certainly killed by someone wishing to possess this ring. Over the years it has occasionally surfaced when someone claimed they had the ring or rumors stated a certain person owned it. In each case the supposed owner was soon found dead and no ring could be found among their possessions. This has caused many to say the ring is cursed. They believe Jamliso, upon his dying breath, cursed this ring and any who would wear it. Others say it is only the greed of man that causes these deaths. In any case the mystery surrounding the ring may never be unraveled until or if it comes into the possession of another mage.
