The River Rings are a pair of masterfully crafted small metal rings weighing 5 grams. The metal is flawlessly mirrored and consists of two small rings connected by a lattice-work that forms a repeating pattern of Stars of David. Unlike the picture there is no solid 'back' behind the stars, and the star pattern spans the entire circumference.

The ring is made of pure Thaumium, enchanted, and virtually indestructible despite it's delicate appearance.

Innate Counterspell Prime ability
Mana Battery 11
Durability 15
Persistent Option
Life Option (bare hand attacks)
Matter Option (weaponry and archery attacks)


The rings were made by Star and named for the final card dealt in a poker hand.
