Bloodstone Orb
Bloodstone Orb Epic Arcane Focus Use: Whenever you fail a saving throw against spell or magic effect caused by a celestial or fiend, you may reduce the Bloodstone Orb’s rank and take that much necrotic damage and succeed on the saving throw instead.
Bloodstone Orbs are enchanted foci that pulse with abyssal magics. When fed the blood of demons, the orb's power permanently grows, as does the danger of wielding its powers. Celestial creatures see these objects as blasphemous and seek to destroy them, while devils and demons seek to claim its powers for themselves.
