This crimson jewel is in the shape of a drop of blood and pulses with the nearest heartbeat. Its bearer can draw on the healing power of Blood, drinking two health levels to heal one. However, such excess comes at a price. After four levels of blood and every level after, the character must roll (Stamina + Resistance) with a difficulty of ([The number of health levels drunk]/2) to be able to continue. If the roll fails, the character can not drink anymore blood for the rest of the scene and suffers a -2 internal penalty from overeating. If the roll botches, the character voids the contents of their stomach and suffers a -2 external penalty from nausea.
The Blood-Gorged Carbuncle is unique in Creation... even geomancers versed in death essence cannot determine how it might be replicated.
