Miscellaneous Swag Errata

Here are some of the magic items that you have either received recently or picked up but not yet used:

Pearl of Power


Aura strong transmutation; CL 17th (see FAQ below)

Slot —; Price 1,000 gp (1st) Weight
Description

This seemingly normal pearl of average size and luster is a potent aid to all spellcasters who prepare spells (clerics, druids, rangers, paladins, and wizards). Once per day on command, a pearl of power enables the possessor to recall any one spell that she had prepared and then cast that day. The spell is then prepared again, just as if it had not been cast. The spell must be of a particular level, depending on the pearl. Different pearls exist for recalling one spell per day of each level from 1st through 9th and for the recall of two spells per day (each of a different level, 6th or lower).


Helm of Comprehend Languages and Read Magic

Aura faint divination; CL 4th

Slot head; Price 5,200 gp; Weight 3 lbs.

Description

Appearing as a normal helmet, a helm of comprehend languages and read magic grants its wearer the ability to understand the spoken words of any creature and to read text in any language and any magical writing. The wearer gains a +5 competence bonus on Linguistics checks to understand messages written in incomplete, archaic, or exotic forms. Note that understanding a magical text does not necessarily imply spell use.


Ring of Disguise Self
As a standard action, she can also command the ring to utilize the spell disguise self as often as she wants.

Faint illusion; CL 3rd; Forge Ring, disguise self; Price 6,450 gp.

Dates and Times

The current date in the world of Eberron is 16 Eyre, in the year 998 YK (the 998th year since the founding of the former kingdom of Galifar). There are 7 days in a week and 4 weeks in a month. See below for a chart of the months and their related dragonmarks (marks are known to increase in power and potency during the corresponding lunar periods).



The days of the week are named as follows:



The holidays celebrated vary widely from kingdom to kingdom and even city to city, but those worth mentioning are the festival of Dol Arrah (15 Therendor),known as the Sun's Blessing, Aureon's Crown (26 Dravago) which is recognized by all five nations, and Brightblade (12 Nymm). Brightblade is the holiday that I mentioned before where in celebration to Dol Dorn, the Sovereign Lord of Strength and Steel, occurs in Sharn. Prizefights, wrestling matches, archery contests, and jousts occur throught the day, culminating in a contest of champions at the Cornerstone arean in Middle Tavick's Landing.

Now that we have established a solid timeline for the events of the campaign I will do what I can to make sure that we keep track of time and relevant world events.
