Level 2 Artifact
This large and beautiful, pearly conch shell is carved with decorative swirls inlaid with blue jade and orichalcum. When blown, its rich and resonant tone carries remarkably far, and all who hear it are compelled to answer its summons.
The air-aspected jade inlaid into the shell’s surface is enchanted to carry the shell’s sound aloft, bearing it on the wind for many miles. The orichalcum enchantments are inlaid to cause its call to rule the hearts of men.
Commitment: 0
Activation Cost: 5 motes
When blown to call a meeting, all who hear its sound are compelled to drop whatever they are doing and come straightaway to the place where the conch was blown.
Once per scene, a character may blow the Conch, rolling Charisma + Performance against the Dodge MDV of all characters within earshot (this is an unblockable effect). The Conch creates a Compulsion to move toward the source of the sound, and those affected must spend a point of Willpower to resist. Those with a higher Dodge MDV still feel an innate urge to answer the call, but may resist without cost.
The magic of the Conch confers no control over those beholden to its call once they have assembled; it merely summons them to a place.
