Telepathy Stones
light side — pair of stones — unclaimed
light side — pair of stones — unclaimed
Appearance:
One long, one round, the telepathy stones are a pair of smooth, gray rocks that have been carved to depict the face of a humanoid with an open, whistling mouth.
Origins:
The origins of the telepathy stones as two physical objects are unknown, but their purpose as Force artifacts began with a Jedi master and apprentice that shared an unbreakable bond. The two - Master Stohn and Master Peybl - had many unrecorded adventures together, sticking together through thick and thin, and nurtured a Force bond so strong that after a lifetime of knowing one another, they could be half a galaxy away and still never be separated. Upon their deaths, their Force ghosts possessed these two stones, still inseparable even after their names and deeds had been long forgotten.
Rumors of Location:
Jedi records indicate that it is likely that these stones are located at a Jedi temple, but it is unknown to where said temple is, as they are not located at any of the modern temples. Some reckon the stones might be in the possession of collectors, perhaps separated, perhaps together.

While in the possession of two force-sensitive individuals, someone possessing a telepathy stone can use the stone to communicate with whoever possesses the other stone. Provided that the receiver is conscious and not actively closing themselves off, and that neither the sender nor receiver is located within a Force void, the message will always be received no matter how great the distance.
However, the stone can only be used thrice a day lest the owner risk overusing the stone and rendering it useless forever. If the stone is used more than three times (for each stone, for a total of six communications), there is a 1 in 20 chance of the stone breaking (a nat 1 on a d20 roll). If this happens, the other stone also becomes useless.
Though the stones were created and are possessed by Force ghosts, dark side users are still able to attempt to use these stones. Communications may occasionally fail when being used by two dark siders. Corrupting the stones might risk banishing the Force ghosts within and thus render the stones useless.
Intent:
To create a Force artifact that is accessible and usable to Force users of all levels.
