Item: Countering Charm (Major)
This glittering charm is made of a gemstone flawed with a leaden inclusion. Spellcasters can cast spells into countering charms that they've invested or that are invested by a willing creature. The spell's effect doesn't occur; the spell's power is instead stored within the charm, replacing any spell previously there. The charm can hold only spells cast from spell slots, not cantrips or focus spells. While the charm is invested, the creature who has invested it knows what spell is stored within and automatically identifies that spell when it's cast.
Activate—Counter R (manipulate)
Trigger You are targeted by or within the area of the spell stored within the charm
Requirements You have a free hand
Effect You present the charm and attempt to counteract the triggering spell, using the rank of the spell stored in the charm and a counteract modifier of +30. This expends the spell held in the charm.
Trait Effects
Invested: A character can invest only 10 magical items that have the invested trait. None of the magical effects of the item apply if the character hasn’t invested it, nor can it be activated, though the character still gains any normal benefits from wearing the physical item (like a hat keeping rain off their head).
Magical: Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
