      These amulets are popping up all over the place, seems like every village has at least one person with one, and the owners are very proud of them. They’re inscribed with the symbol of the god Tek, and wearers call themselves Tekologists and they seem to gather followers about them (basically anyone who consistently can’t pass the WIS saving throw). The followers all resolve to buy their own amulets. There seems to be a strange cohesion among those who wear them. There are signs that the Teknologists are forming their own significant political force.

      Turns out Tek is a dragon, the voices in the amulets are their kobold army each operating a magical switchboard and shouting questions at each other, and they couldn’t care less about the rise of the Teknologists, they just came up with the scheme to sell cheap magic rocks to rubes who can’t afford them, for 249G a pop.
