A withered crypt worm				- TALISMAN INFO CRYPTWORM

        - Priced at 50 credits
	- This wriggling legendary mount bears the effects of the Collar of Lupus and the Badge of Returning.

The culling blade				- TALISMAN INFO CULLINGBLADE

	- Priced at 1500 credits
	- While wielding this blade you may utilise a special battlerage attack with the REAP command.
	- This will strike your specified target and a second creature in your location of the same type (REAP UNDEAD for instance).
	- On the treacherous planes of Annwyn and the Underworld, reap will hit a third target as well.
  	- This consumes the same amount of rage and rage balance as a standard, high- damage rage attack, and also does the same damage.

A funeral shroud				- TALISMAN INFO FUNERALSHROUD

	- Priced at 2000 credits
	- WRAP yourself in this shroud and you will vanish from sight in a location.
	- This specifically hides you on LOOK, QUICKLOOK, GLANCE, OBSERVE, VEILGLANCE, and similar abilities.
   	- It does not hide you from sense abilities.
   	- Performing any action while concealed by this shroud will cause it to immediately unwrap.
   	- Wrapping yourself carries a three minute cooldown if not in the Underworld.

A talisman of custody				- TALISMAN INFO CUSTODYTALISMAN

   - Priced at 400 credits
   - BREAK a piece off this talisman and hand it to an adventurer with less experience than yourself.
   - If that adventurer dies while you are both in the realms, while you are wearing the talisman of custody, you will take the experience loss in their place.
   - Each time you use the talisman in an RL day, the experience cost will increase:
   		* At first you will only lose the same experience they would.
      	* After ten deaths, you will lose 10% of the experience they would and 90% of the experience loss you would have suffered had you died yourself in their place.
   		* The talisman will break on the tenth death, but it recharges all of its uses once a month.
   - SHAKE the talisman to make it whole again if you change your mind.
   - TOUCH the talisman to see who currently holds the piece.

A sliver of fog-wreathed obsidian	- TALISMAN INFO SOULSLIVER

	- Priced at 800 credits
	- Each time you die this sliver will absorb part of your fading life essence.
   	- You may BREAK this sliver to restore your health (the more charge, the bigger the health gain).
   	- This healing can push you over your max health by up to 25% of maximum! (This does also work if you have your max health increased by the effect of the death cape.)

A totem of unlife			- TALISMAN INFO UNLIFETOTEM

	- Priced at 500 credits
   	- TOUCH this totem while standing next to an entrance or exit to the Underworld and a list of all currently in the Underworld will be carved upon it.
   	- Be warned that everyone in the Underworld will see a message whenever the totem is used.
   	- There is a 30 second cooldown on its use, shared by everyone, but any time it is used, all totems held by adventurers in eligible rooms will also bear the new carving.

A skein of sanity			- TALISMAN INFO SANITYSKEIN

	- Priced at 220 credits
