Description

This gray stone carving of a gaunt older woman is usually painted with black hair and black clothing with red trim. Once per day, the bearer can use it to cast stabilize, resistance, and virtue —this is usually enough to ensure that a mother and newborn both live through a difficult birth.

If Pharasma is the bearer's patron, the bearer can use the icon to cast augury once per day. As a standard action, the bearer can touch a pregnant woman and know whether she is carrying a boy or girl and whether it will be a single birth or multiple. Once per day, the bearer can consecrate a corpse so if it is buried within 24 hours it cannot be reanimated as an undead.
