Absorption Jewels

Absorption crystals · Sparkling gems

Gems set into Donut's tiara that light up as each drained buff is absorbed into it.

Story so far

When Katia sets Donut's Tiara on a charging pillow, three Absorption Jewels start to sparkle, joining twenty other already-sparkling gems — twenty-three buffs banked, seventy-six still to go. Each jewel represents one absorbed enhancement, whether useful or not.

This batch brings 10 Constitution, two enhancements to Donut's Dodge skill, and a 1% Intelligence buff. Carl considers the Intelligence crystal a waste, but it rode in on the same hat as the Dodge upgrade and there was no way to take one without the other.

Appearance

Small gems set into a tiara that begin to sparkle once charged with an absorbed buff.

Role

The storage slots that make Donut's tiara a growing stack of stolen enchantments.
