Quickstone Whisperer
Wondrous Item, Uncommon (Requires Attunement)

This ancient, heavy marble torc is strangely warm to the touch. Though it resembles stone jewelry, the torc is in fact a simple symbiont which grants a limited form of control over earth and the ability to manipulate quickstone without the usual rituals. To attune to it, you must wear it around your neck for the full Attunement period, during which time it coils around your throat like a snake.

While wearing the torc, you can use a Magic action to transform a 5-foot cube of quickstone between its soft and wet forms, or irreversibly change it into its fixed form.

Spells. As an Action, you can use the symbiote to cast Mold Earth or Meld into Stone. Once you use the torc to cast Meld into Stone, the spell can't be cast in this way until the next dusk.

Symbiotic Nature. The torc can't be removed from you while you're attuned to it, and you can't voluntarily end your Attunement to it. If you're targeted by a spell that ends a curse, your Attunement to the torc ends, and it uncoils from around your neck.
