Rot Stone[edit]
The rot stone is a small pebble easily fits in the small hand of even a halfling or gnome. The pebble has a curious spiral on it usually, but otherwise looks like a normal rock. Those who pick it up will often feel like it is a strange oddity of nature and feel impelled to keep it for good luck. Those who know of its horrible potential know to try and hide it in the property of their enemies, as the stone is actually an object that causes physical and mental ruin to all those within its vicinity.
It is not entirely clear where this stone comes from. Most agree that they are remnant fragments of a much larger and malefic stone that was scattered long ago into this form. The origin stone is rumored to have been the final resting place of a powerful and malevolent spirit that never settled its turbulent emotions, thus allowing them to fester and create the curse of ruination. The original stone was said to have been broken by the lightning breath of a dragon, but that was not enough to dispel its curse. It only shattered it into the pieces now known as the rot stone. Despite being shattered, its powers have not diminished in the slightest. The persistence of the impending ruin is only made more difficult as the stones are nigh indestructible, requiring a special kind of process to destroy. It is said that a dragon must breathe over it whilst in dawn's light for it to finally break and melt into a few drops of pure gold.
The stone's effects occur every day at sundown and do not fade until the stone is removed at least 60 feet away from a creature. While this stone is within 60 feet of a creature, the creature must roll a d100 at sundown. Refer to the below table for the result that occurs to the creature.
