This
ter’angreal was recently brought to the
sisters at Salidar by a young woman hoping
to test for novice who claimed that her
family had possessed it for generations. She
said that she felt something funny about
it and thought that maybe she, too, could
be Aes Sedai. As it turns out, she was
correct on both counts, and it is hoped that
her surprising strength and seeming affinity
with these items will allow her to become
adept at the creation of ter’angreal.
This
item appears as a black glass stone
box, 4 inches square. Across the surface on
five sides are gold seams in odd shapes similar
to a child’s toy puzzle box. Spanning
across the remaining surface is a solid
gold circle. It is surmised that this device
was used during the Age of Legends
as a teaching tool.
While touching this device, the user
channels
Spirit into the gold circle and creates
a dome-shaped weave, in a 25-foot radius
circle. The user must maintain concentration
and be within long range of the device or the
Puzzle Box will stop functioning. All those
who enter the area of effect must make
a Will saving throw (DC 18) or become
entrapped in a mental maze, while their
bodies stand unmoving and unresponsive.
Those entrapped are aware of all that happens to their bodies, but can do
nothing
about them while still in the maze. Targets
must make three Intelligence Check
(DC 16) to successfully navigate the maze.
Each consecutive time a character enters
the maze, the Int check DC is reduced
by 2.
