Ter’angreal Name: Book Finder (1 Receiver & 4 Senders)

 

Ter’angreal Description: Five small stonelike figures. Four shaped in the form of an open book (Senders), one shaped in the form of a closed book (Receiver). They are all small enough to easily fit into the palm of a grown woman's hand and look like stone, but are very light in weight. They are copper colored.

 

Ter’angreal Uses: these can be used to call someone within a radius of 1500 feet (0.5 km). One person holds the sending half of the Ter'Angreal (= the open book), the other person holds the receiving half (= closed book). It is mostly used in the Tower Library. The librarians up front use the Senders to call a sister (using the Receiver) in the section of the Library sealed to the shawl, for assistance when needed.

 

Ter’angreal Trigger: a small thread of Air is channeled into the middle of the open book. The Receiver, usually hanging from a chain around the librarian's neck, begins to glow softly yet with increasing intensity. The intensity of the glow increases or decreases depending on the position of the keeper of the Receiver in relation to the sender. The closer the Receiver gets to the Sender, the less intense the glow becomes. The further away, the brighter the glow. This helps in locating the Sister in the vast chamber of the restricted section of the Library. Once both halves of the Ter'Angreal are within 3 feet of each other, the Receiver stops glowing and does not start again unless the Sender is activated again.

 

Other History: concept by Mystica. Carina al'Tara, Brown Sister, brought 1 (incomplete) set of these back from one of her journeys to Tear.
