Palantir

thingiverse

This pedestal boasts a recess currently occupied by a mystical orb, which also features 23 carefully crafted notches in its shaft, each accompanied by corresponding holes at the top for inserting magical wands, swords, or staffs. The significance of 23 as a prime number adds to its mystique, making it feel almost otherworldly. In stories featuring this pedestal, characters might engage in social endeavors like collecting favors from allied orders to utilize the signature item held by the highest-ranking office and unlock its magical potential. Alternatively, they may resort to more aggressive tactics, such as seizing items by force from competing orders. Your imagination is now free to bring this chunk of dungeon furniture to life within your homebrew setting, either with or without the included orb.
