DESCRIPTION
Darth Excidium has dedicated his life to the understanding and pursuit of Sith alchemy and the dark arts. So much so that his other attributes have suffered. His combat prowess is lacking, his physicality is weakened, and his only real strength lies in his specific discipline and Force use. After many years of honing his skills in the dark arts, Excidium has reached a point where he has put entire tomes and scrolls to perfect memory (see: Strength - eidetic memory) and has mastered many powers in the field of study. As a result, his capacity for using rituals and dark arts is higher than most, and he has sought to develop powerful artifacts to compare and rival some of the most powerful Sith Lords who also utilized such specialties.
By giving over absolute concentration and effort to the task, Darth Excidium is able to enhance his Force powers and channel them toward monumental displays of power with force illusions and summons; such as commanding armies of Force wraiths, or hordes of Sith phantasms, or dozens of Smoke Demons, or numerous Similfuturus. As he was a master of the Dark Arts, his already considerable capabilities with such illusions and summons were only made stronger through the amulet, with the four crystals assisting in enhancing those powers and Force reserves required to maintain them. However, even a brief loss of concentration would result in the powers being wielded failing, and any apparitions disappearing - not unlike other Sith Lords of the past. There was also the strain of commanding such power, with Darth Excidium requiring copious amounts of rest and recovery before attempting to utilize the amulet again.
Much to his personal annoyance, Darth Excidium found the amulet useless unless full concentration and channeling occurred. This meant the artifact was simply a decorative necklace, until such time as he began meditating and focusing. Additionally, he found his own attunement to the item to be most effective with an ore called guerrerite, which meant the amulet itself was able to be destroyed like other common metals, and rendered useless, if he wasn't careful. Yet, in the end, through his constantly expanding experience forging and creating items using the Dark Forge and alchemy lake at the Temple of Pain, Darth Excidium was proud of his efforts and hoped that one day his amulet would be considered a mighty Sith relic in the distant future, comparable to other Sith Lords of old...
