- Production: Unique
- Material: Litr Gryttr (pedant/crystal) | Alchemised Estrian (chain, pedant coating)
- Part of the rosary medal was made of Litr Gryttr crystal, which was then coated with an alchemical estrian (golden colour).
- The necklace is quite light, pleasantly warm, and soothing when touched to the skin. Due to its design, it can never overheat or be too cold.
- Even wearing it is a reassuring, pleasant feeling, as if Ashla herself is watching and guarding the crusader. It increases the willpower and determination of the wearer, helps to find inner peace, and also helps to heal the mental wounds.
- The medal radiates a Force-side aura that Gei has, this aura can be strengthened/amplified, if the man channels the Force into the crystal.
- If Gei is more restless, more nervous than usual, the medal may be able to reassure him, feeling like Ashla or Eina is trying to do that. The man can activate this effect with a short concentration if he wants to, and can disable with another short concentration.
- The crystal is bonding to Gesieric, as a result of which it always has the same alignment as the man and only he is able to take advantage of the power and ability of the rosary.
- The rosary gives Geiseric extreme protection against all kinds of forces and influences, but he can decide whether to allow some positive effect on them (for example, healing, battle meditation etc). Because Eina made the rosary, so her Force abilities automatically get through the defence, this doesn't need to be specifically allowed, but Gei may be able to exclude them if he wants to.
- The crystal helps to strengthen and consolidate the crusader's connection with the Force, thus making it easier for the user to use the Force (whatever the ability, the ability is easier to implement and the effect will be slightly stronger).
- It helps to keep Gei's mind clean, it helps in meditation, concentration, which can be useful in many situations.
- Thanks to the bonding, the medal / crystal is able to react to Geiseric's willpower, determination, and glow in a golden light in the light of this. The more determined his dedication, the stronger the light. If the man channels the Force into the crystal (for example through his praying), it also acts as a Force Light.
- The medal is able to provide a slow but steady and passive, not very strong regeneration for the man while he wears or touches the rosary.
- Minor injuries heal in a matter of minutes, and more serious injuries can take hours or days if the man is able to rest. It cannot regrow a severed limb and does not protect the wearer from fatal injuries.
- The crystal is very susceptible to being endowed with new abilities by Force-imbuement, Alchemy, or Sorcery, and thereby makes the user susceptible to them. And Eina took advantage of this opportunity and endowed the rosary with several abilities. The following abilities can be used by the man through the rosary, or to amplify the abilities he knows:
- Force Effects: The greatest strength of the crystals is that they have extreme protection against the effects of the Force. It protects the user from the Force effects that would affect or attack them.
- Bonding: The crystal is bound to Geiseric, only the crusader is able to use the crystal. The rosary is just a beautiful jewel for anyone else. This is why the crystal is able to change its affiliation with the Force, depending on which side the owner is on.
- Healing: Able to give Gei a weak regeneration so small and not serious injuries can heal quickly.
- Many Abilities: Thanks to Force Alchemy, the rosary has multiple abilities that make them more special and unique and make them more fit to the man.
- Force Nullification: The rosary is fully bound to the Force. In a place where there is no Force, it is only a beautiful jewel and loses all of its abilities.
- Force Protection: High protection can also be a disadvantage if someone wants to use a helper Force Ability on the crystal owner, as the crystal also protects against these. These must be passed through the crystal's protection by the owner in a short concentration.
- Sensible: The rosary is made with Force Alchemy, so unless Gei not try to hid it in the Force, others can feel the jewel, which is completely at the same side in the Force like the wearer.
- Physical Contact: The abilities can only be used or lasted as long as the man has a physical connection to the rosary.
- Lack of Defence: The rosary has average or minimal protection against most effects. They are quite vulnerable to ordinary attacks and influences.
- Limits: It gives only weak regeneration, in addition to being an extreme defence against that Force effects / influence, even that can't fully protect the man, so even though he has this rosary, he may fall into the Dark Side and the darkness may embrace him.
- Not changeable: Since the rosary design is complete, no more Force Abilities or other abilities can be added.
Eina and Geiseric's relationship was very close from the first moment, despite coming from two separate worlds, literally. The woman also joined the Ashlan Crusade because of the man. It is very difficult for Eina to understand social relationships, yet she has never denied that they are close to each other and important to each other.
It was for this reason that the woman searched for the man for months after she disappeared at Korriban and was considered dead by many. She eventually found him on a ship where she saved the crusader's life. She gave too much life force, the Sith Lord who was holding the man as prisoner almost killed the weakened Valkyrja, so Geiseric saved her as well. The man lost his original rosary during his captivity.
Eina had already seen from other mortals that they used to give gifts to others who were important to them if they wanted to thank something. Well, the Valkyrja made this rosary for Geiseric, thanks to the man taking her home when she was too injured to do so.
Since the woman is not a member of the religion, she has done a lot of research on what might be perfect for the man. He spent days and weeks making an Ashla symbol out of the Litr Gryttr crystal with the help of the Force. As soon as he succeeded, she coated the multicoloured gem with Estrian, which had turned into gold-like material. It took a long hard work to endow her with various abilities.
It was long and hard because the crystal had extreme resistance to the effects of the Force, and Eina didn't want to touch it because she didn't want to tie the crystal to herself by accident. The rosary later developed a bonding with Geiseric after the first touch. The rosary is able in many ways to help the crusader maintain his faith and goals and help keep him on the right path designated by Ashla.
It protects him from the effects of the Force, he is able to use or strengthen the Crusader with various Force abilities. Meanwhile, the crystal is able to heal both body and soul. Perfect for helping Geiseric to perform one of his favourite sentences: Ashla wills it!
