V.E.R

V.E.R (Vibro Audio Resonator) is a device that boosts voice output. Speaking into V.E.R will make you sound louder without yelling. This device is useful for commuting in huge crowds, presenting lectures, and giving orders, to name a few applications.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

V.E.R is a metal pedestal with a ring on top that contains three Sage String   When you speak into it, the test string catches, and your voice begins to vibrate, making it louder. The volume of the V.E.R can be adjusted by adjusting the top and bottom strings. The greater the distance from the central string, the louder it will sound. The closer it gets, the more quitter it will be.

There is a sound enchantment inside the ring that holds the string that allows this to function. The enchantment aids in capturing noises in the string and directing them in the correct direction, after which the output is directed to the opposite side where the sound came in. Some newer and more expensive models even have a switch to turn off the enchantment, so it doesn't just constantly pick up sounds and broadcast them to the world.

Rarity
They are widely used in large kingdoms and significant cities. They are unlikely to be found in small towns or villages. Most mistrials, storytellers, and bards will have gotten their hands on one. The tradition is that they buy one after making their big show. We know that most of them enjoy hearing their own voices, and what better way to do so than to turn up the volume.
