[QUOTE="Ktulu, post: 5513075, member: 13465"] I used it in a campaign recently. Thematically, it was changed to be the eye of the first lich in my world, someone as powerful as Vecna, but in a world with a very small list of gods. The party "found" it, though it would later be realized by the bard (who had a bit of precognition) that he had been drawn to its location. After a severe beating over the course of some sessions, the bard realized he wasn't as strong as his allies and needed the power granted by the eye to be a valuable ally in the battle against the Yuan-ti oppression (it's easier to just read the campaign guide -- link's at the end). Anyway, it did grant him power and was corrupting him with the need for more knowledge and power (the lich's point of being was to continuously survive for more knowledge). In a brief spot in hell, where the party traded favors to a version of Asmodeus for their friend's life, the bard asked to have the eye removed. Asmodeus did so, killing the bard instantly. His life was spared, only because it amused him so. Ultimately, now free of the eye's control, the party went in search of the first lich to gain the knowledge needed to defeat the Yuan-ti lord, Skather-sol. The lich offered the information provided the bard become the liche's new host. The bard reluctantly agreed, and realized that his original actions had always drawn him to this ultimate conclusion.
