“They’re not ioun stones, but they are the next best thing”
- Lacitus the Dark, necromancer sage

Orbital spellstones are pale-colored rocks that operate like ioun stones. While circling the user’s head, they emit a glowing trail of energy. The origin of spellstones is unknown, but they seem to be receptive to magic.

Benefit: Each orbital spellstone stores a small bit of a spell’s energy to be used later. Whenever a personal or touch spell with a duration expressed in rounds or minutes per level is cast on the user, the orbital spellstone user can choose to store a small bit of that spell’s energy in the stone. As an immediate action, the spellstone user can release the stone’s energy on himself, receiving the benefits of the spell stored for one round. The spell’s caster level is the minimum level necessary to cast the spell. The stone then turns black and becomes inactive for 24 hours.

One orbital spellstone can store the energy of a 1st-level spell. Two stones can store either one 2nd-level spell between both of them, or two 1st-level spells separately. Three stones can store up to one 3rd level spell between all of them, or a combination adding up to three. Four stones can store up to one 4th-level spell in total, or a combination up to four. You can choose to release the stored energies of other stones without activating them in order to make room for another spell. You cannot possess more than 4 orbital spellstones.
