Book of Creation: This massive book is three foot wide and four feet high. It is nearly a foot and a half thick. This is an always up to date bestiary. Within can be found an accurate description of every type of beast on the planet natural or created.
Collar of Life Preservation: This collar will preserve the life on any creature it is placed on. You can cut off their heads south of the collar and they remain alive. This is the usual use of the item.
Damage remains damage and will only heal normally. As long as the creature's head is not destroyed the collar will prevent them form dying, or even losing consciousness. Healing spells can be used to cure damage and other spells to restore missing bodies. A bodiless head does not require food. It does not act as a ring of sustenance, but will keep a creature from dying and that includes starvation.
The item is not in and of itself evil. It can be used to good intent to preserve life. It is often used to torment the executed by letting them survive decapitation a little longer. Some variations provide the head with air to speak, or are cursed to prevent healing spells from functioning, leaving the victim as a disembodied and helpless head. One could call such varieties evil and their use an evil act.
Simmering cauldron This black 10 quart cauldron comes to a quick simmer and stays there as long as any degree of heat is applied, a bonfire to a candle. Food within will not burn.
