Random Magic Wondrous Item

Ioun stone (deep red sphere)

This stone always float in the air and must be within 3 feet of their owner to be of any use.

Thereafter, a stone must be grasped or netted to separate it from its owner. The owner may voluntarily seize and stow a stone (while sleeping, for example) to keep it safe, but she loses the benefits of the stone during that time. Ioun stones have an AC of 24,10 hit points, and a hardness of 5. This stone grants a +2 enhancement bonus to Dexterity.
