Fragment of Joy

Wondrous item, common

Price: 10-80 gp | high sentimentality

This chipped piece of stone comes from an Underworld soul who has forgotten their own identity, thus turning to stone and dying a final death. It recognizes all things must pass and is filled with joy at having lived a life that made a positive impact, no matter how small. This fragment makes people feel exuberant and joyful when they touch it. If you obtained this fragment from a transformed fragment of misera, it’s worth high sentimentality if traded to the Gray Merchant.

Paid

With the fragment in hand, you can focus on it to relive in your mind one event from your life that made you extremely joyful. You can perform actions within this mental simulation that deviate from what you actually did and see how that changes the course of events. During this simulation, your actual body is incapacitated. You may leave this mental simulation and return to reality at will.

Overpaid

You may choose any willing creatures in physical contact with you to participate in the mental simulation with you. They’re also incapacitated during this simulation but may leave the simulation independently and at will.
