Magic Item: Silent Stone (Price ok?)

[Cloudgatherer]

Silent Stone: These small stones fit in the palm of your hand and radiate a permant silence as per the spell by the same name.

Caster Level: 3rd; Prerequisites: silence; Market Price: 10,000 gp Weight: 1 lb.

Any thoughts? The "guideline" price is 12,000, but I made it 10K for a nice round number. That and the fact that it is not a purely beneficial item, silence affects everyone.

While it does effect everyone, a stone is relatively easy for a rogue to slip into a person's (wizard's) pocket, thus making them silent.

Is there any way of blocking the silence effect? Putting it in a soundproof box, maybe?

Putting it in one's pocket or pouch- would that prevent the emanation effect from getting out?

That's a good question...does an emenation work kind of like light (in that it can be blocked by being enclosed)?

I think so. Turning is an emenation, and I'm fairly confident a wall would block the effect. Line of Effect and all that...
