Talisman of Ultimate Evil

Wondrous Item, Legendary (requires attunement; cost 75000 gp)
Crafting Components

An unholy symbol sanctified by an evil god

(requires attunement by an Evil creature)

This talisman’s blasphemous nature harms creatures that do not have the Evil trait, dealing 6d6 necrotic damage when touched (or 8d6 necrotic damage to a creature with the Good trait). A creature carrying or holding this item takes the same damage at the end of each of its turns as long as it does so. 

A cleric or herald with the Evil trait can use this talisman as a holy symbol, which grants a +2 bonus to spell attack rolls while held or worn.

In addition, the talisman has 6 charges. While wielded or worn, you can use an action to expend a charge and choose a target within 120 feet that is on the ground. If the creature has the Good trait, it makes a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw or is destroyed by a flaming pit that appears beneath it. Once the pit closes no trace of it or the target remains. Once all charges are expended, the talisman melts into a puddle of ooze.
