Line 161:
* Questing Stones are reputed to be this in ''[[Septimus Heap]]''. No Apprentice has ever retuned after having been dispatched with one of them {{spoiler|, until Septimus is given one and survives the Queste in ''Queste''}}.
* In [[Michael Flynn]]'s ''[[Spiral Arm|The January Dancer]]'', the Dancer, apparently. At one point two characters discuss whether one man who owned it had died when he disappeared—after all, all other owners have.
* The [[Forgotten Realms]] novel ''[[The Crystal Shard]]'' (notable for being the first novel featuring the drow hero Drizzt Do'Urden) revolves around a potent artifact called Crenshinibon. Anyone in possession of this gem can create a magic tower called Crystal-Tirith. While the tower and crystal require sunlight to function, they make the user invulnerable and immortal, and capable of enslaving the minds of those around it, including the bearer of Crenshinibon, who would be constantly teased and tempted into performing more evil acts. In the wrong hands, this device could let a villain [[Take Over the World]] very quickly.
