[color=2e2c2c].............................................................................[/color][/sup][/center][/cell][cell]The Orange Stone is a mesmerizing yet dangerous artifact. The gem, warm to the touch, pulsates with its raw, untamed energy. The stone's primary function is to [i]exponentially[/i] amplify the wielder's abstraction. Simple spells become monumental feats of magic, and minor manipulations transform into grandiose displays of power.

However, the Orange Stone carries a dreadful curse. Each use of the stone's power slowly erodes the wielder's sanity, driving them to madness. The more the stone is used, especially for mighty feats of magic, the quicker the descent into insanity. The wielder becomes increasingly unhinged, their thoughts dominated by chaos and destruction. Their grip on reality slips, and they are consumed by a desire to cause havoc.

The curse binds the stone to the wielder's flesh, fusing it seamlessly to their body, making removal painful and arduous. The only way to break the curse and free oneself from the stone's influence is to remove it physically, an act that often leaves lasting scars both physically and mentally.[/cell][/row][/table]
