The Amulet of Power is a magical silver amulet in Shadows of Amn, Throne of Bhaal and The Black Pits I and II.

It provides the wearer the beneficial status effect of Vocalize, along with a stackable 5% bonus to magical resistance and a stackable casting time reduction of 1. It also grants an immunity to Level drain, which is very handy while fighting vampires.

Description[]

This amulet bears the signature enchantments of Conster Damon, an archmage that fell in the Year of the Dracorage (1018 DR). The crispness of its etchings may have faded with fire and time, but it still echoes his famous defiant cries: "Your magic denied!" "I will be heard!" "Defeat comes swiftly!" "Take nothing from me!" It has seen much use, and changed hands many times through blood and battle.
