Time in a Bottle

This item appears to be a normal glass bottle with an hourglass printed on the cork. When opened on the Prime Material Plane, it allows the character to take one full round action. This can be repeated once every minute (hence, once every 10 rounds). The side effect is that the wielder ages a day per use.

If the bottle breaks, the wielder falls unconscious for a day. This is the tactic that those who know of this item use against the wielders. For this reason, Time in a Bottle is sometimes found in areas where there is much broken glass. But often they are found in very secret locations known only by powerful mages.

It is unknown how Time in s Bottle reacts on other planes.

Polonico Colouz

Polonico is the scruffy-yet-trustworthy paladin who runs Adin Temple, the main church in Central Valley. This church contains multiple wings, each of which is dedicated to a god - Pelor in the north and largest wing, Heironeous in the east wing, and Kord in the west wing. Polonico himself worships Pelor, but works in a partnership with adepts and warriors who worship other gods in typical Central Valley fashion.
