Jade Buddha Statue

This two-foot-tall statue is carved from flawless green jade veined with threads of luminous gold. It depicts a seated Buddha with one hand raised in blessing and the other resting upon a lotus. The figure's expression is peaceful enough to quiet a battlefield. When held by a creature in genuine distress, the jade grows warm, and tiny motes of green light drift from its surface like fireflies. The statue weighs 28 pounds and is mounted on a circular base engraved with hundreds of names, each belonging to someone who chose mercy over vengeance.
