Medallion of Dexterity

Magic item, Medallion

A divine-magic medallion that raises the wearer's Dexterity by one point while worn.

From the book

A Medallion of Divine Magic, it raises its wearer's Dexterity by 1. Medallions of Divine Magic are usually an ounce of copper, silver or gold, and they work continuously while worn. Medallions are usually a single ounce of metal shaped like a coin; some work once a day, others without pause.

As a greater magic item its magic is permanent and renews itself each day. Making one calls for the materials of a minor magic item and two months plus two weeks for each level of the spell it holds, with a 99% chance of success; one offered for sale usually costs at least twice its materials plus 2,000 G.P. per week of enchanting. It counts toward the seven magic items a person may carry or wear at once; go past seven and none of them works.
