And while at least two of us have played long enough to know we could have the item Identified (by some of the NPCs we've met since leaving "civilization"), our characters don't - and neither of our characters is the item owner. Not trying to come off as snarky, just wanting to cap off presumptions.More on topic - I like the idea of the thing just running out at a dramatic moment, or letting the owning PC notice that a feature is changing - indicating the charges being used. Charge notches could be a part of the artwork around the central gem, readily noticable if you know what to look for, much more subtle than a row of dissapearing hash marks. However many charges it started with is irrelevent, just make a decision on how many are presently left based on how much power you want the group to have.</blockquote>
