Appearance
This is a black wooden box, 1 1/2 foot per side, with a door on one side and a control panel at the top. The control panel consists of a small screen with targeting cross-hairs on it, and a series of knobs along the bottom. To the lower right is a large green button.
Description
The talisman uses a combination of Correspondence 2 and Life 2 or Matter 2 to find and retrieve objects at distant or hidden locations. The mage will use the control panel to sight the target object (which can't be larger than the box), then press the green button. The screen blanks, the box makes a camera-clicking noise, and the object is inside the box when the mage opens the door.It can also work in reverse -- move objects into distant or hidden locations. The mage puts the target object into the box, closes the door, sights the location, and presses the green button. The screen blanks, the box makes a camera-clicking noise, and the object appears in the new location. This is automatically what happens if there are objects already in the box.
