Harbour Manifest
Uncommon wonderous item
The leather for this manifest's cover has a faint,
intricate pattern on it.
Property: To open the manifest, one must trace the
magic pattern on its cover. The book has been
opened so many times that the tracing marks are
clearly visible, but the pattern is so complex that
tracing it properly requires a DC 15 Dexterity
(Sleight of Hand) or Intelligence (Arcana) check. If
opened incorrectly, the manifest screeches in a
parrot voice, "Thief! Help! Thief! Help!" The cry can
be heard out to 100ft., and continues until the
symbol is traced correctly. An individual who has
opened it correctly once need not perform the
check again.
In addition, while it is open, the manifest records
on its pages any words dictated to it.
