Casket of Furyondy

Clerics of Furyondy first enchanted this finely-engraved wooden coffin to preserve the bodies of the honorable deceased. Any lawful good cleric can activate its powers by placing into the casket the body of a human or demi-human who is not more than nine days dead, then casting a bless spell upon the body. The casket preserves the body from decay indefinitely. The deceased character can be returned to life by a resurrection spell after any length of time. For purposes of resurrection system shock, the subject’s constitution is considered to be 3 points above the current ability score (no maximum). He or she also receives the benefits of heal once the resurrection is complete.

  I'll try to create that. The article you linked is about the **Casket of Furyondy**, a legendary artifact that was used to seal the evil demigod Iuz in his prison. Here are some key points from the article:  
  • **Origin**: The casket was created by the **Circle of Eight**, a group of powerful wizards led by Mordenkainen, who devised a plan to trap Iuz and end his threat to the Flanaess.
  • **Appearance**: The casket is a small wooden box, about a foot long and six inches wide and deep, with intricate carvings and runes on its surface. It has a metal lock and hinges, and a hidden compartment that contains a **key**.
  • **Powers**: The casket has the ability to **imprison** any creature that touches it, unless they have the key or a powerful magic item. The casket also **protects** its contents from scrying, teleportation, and other forms of detection or interference.
  • **History**: The casket was used to capture Iuz in 505 CY, after a fierce battle between the Circle of Eight and his forces. The casket was then hidden in a secret location, guarded by loyal followers of the Circle. However, in 570 CY, the casket was **stolen** by agents of the **Scarlet Brotherhood**, a sinister organization that sought to free Iuz and use him for their own purposes. The casket's current whereabouts are unknown.
