Xanthan Orb

Divine Artifact

According to Werdna's notes, these orbs are the physical remains of Xanthan's human body enshrined in a protective black crystalline substance. They exude powerful necromantic energy, and the party has discovered that they influence anyone who holds one. This influence of the orb the party found was enough to cause one of the party members to lash out at an innocent guard, and to interrupt the divine spellcasting of another.

Werdna has stated that there are seven orbs;

The party was initially only immediately aware of one, the orb kept in Xanthan which they narrowly managed to defeat.

Eventually the party was made aware of four; they learned of the one in the possession of the usurper Queen Anastasia Wrathburn by speaking with the Tacitus Reign from a note sent by the Hybrasil, and one located in the Wizards College which they learned of from their traveling companion Baron Aramet Veristan.

At the The Death of Tacitus held by King Trebor Hawkwind, Rebecca informed the party of the existence of three more orbs; one far to the west, one to the north, and one to the northeast (relative to their position at the time in Adamancia).

The party managed to collect three orbs; they regained the orb from Werdna by Alistair for safekeeping.

The two orbs remaining in their possession were soon stolen by a metallic angel within the Werdna has the one orb given to him, one orb remains at the Wizards College, and there is still one orb as of yet undiscovered.
