Antique Victorian Snake Bracelet

Enchanted Bracelet

An antique silver snake bracelet belonging to Natasha Keller. It is a sister bracelet to the others worn by Nightfall executives, enchanted by Mages to reveal the presence of supernatural species to the wearer. This bracelet is the original.

The bracelet is always worn on the left wrist, and Natasha rarely takes it off - only for showering and sleep.

A Victorian-era antique silver charm bracelet, designed in the shape of a snake, with two small rubies for eyes.

Pure silver, two small ruby stones

Please note the image included on the page isn't the original - sadly the original has been lost to time and the Internet and I had to pick a different image. :c

The bracelet itself is antique, well over 150 years old.

It was repaired to be like new and enchanted in 2003/2004.

Natasha was gifted the original bracelet by her stepfather. It was a graduation present, for graduating with her bachelor's degree and opening up Nightfall.

She later had the enchantment cloned to make two additional bracelets for her proteges, Joan Walsh and Morgan Devereaux.

The bracelet is enchanted by powerful Mages to be a supernatural species detector for the wearer - designed specifically for Humans who have no ability to tell species apart otherwise.

The bracelet will turn hot against the wearer's skin whenever a supernatural creature is within ten yards of the wearer, alerting them to their presence. A secondary effect is that the bracelet will glow a faint twinkling color and alert the wearer to the specific species being alerted to.

If there are multiple supernatural creatures within the ten yard range, the enchantment is strong enough that the wearer is able to tell the species of each individual by focusing their attention on that individual. This does require the individual to be within line of sight to focus on. Without the line of sight, the wearer might get flashes for the multiple species but would not be able to tell who was what.

To unaware Humans, the glow appears only to be the bracelet catching the light.

Note that this magic does NOT work to identify Unicorns (per their passive ability) unless the Unicorn has revealed themselves to the wearer.

This spell is considered 'passive', meaning it is no more detectable to other supernats than the creature's own ability to tell the difference between magic or scent signatures to figure out the species of another individual, and should be treated no different. This does mean that the bracelet can be tricked by other magicks the same way magic and scent signatures can be masked.
