Mourning Lantern

Originally constructed from the bones of Saint Lucia, the Mourning Lantern[1] is a holy relic that once hung in the Wayshrine of Wayston. Its power protected the town for two centuries, warding away the dark spirits and plantlife of the Blackbriars Wood. However, its recent theft has left the villagers vulnerable to night disappearances once again.

A new Mourning Lantern can be created, but its creation requires the willing sacrifice of a mortal's life. The remains of the sacrificed person are used to construct the lantern itself. Leora Moonshadow knows the ritual involved in the Lantern's creation and can instruct others on its procedures.

Powers

When carried and lit, the Lantern keeps evil plants from becoming hostile so long as there are no hostile actions taken against them.
