This ornate lung wang dragon scale is 12 inches in diameter and inlaid with mother-of-pearl, coral, and white pearls depicting an ocean scene.
When carried aboard a waterborne vessel, a pearly okimono of the sea dragon grants a +5 bonus on any Profession (sailor) checks made to control the ship by someone on the vessel. It also increases the vessel’s hardness by 5 and halves any chance that the ship will capsize in rough water.
An okimono functions continuously as long as it is affixed to a water vessel. When first grasped, it telepathically instructs the owner (simultaneously in the Spirit Tongue and Draconic) on the effects of the item and how to activate it.
This item is a dweomered dragon scale.
Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, commune with nature or commune with greater spirit, control winds, ironwood.
