[h2]Rolled 11/12. Excellent result.[/h2]

As you peer out across the lake, nothing catches your eye. You think you see a small gathering of fish just below a swarm of bioluminescent flies, but it's too far out to reach without braving the icy-cold, imperceptibly deep, jet-black waters. Fed up with searching for things far outside your reach, you give up and look down in dejection... finding exactly what you've been looking for!

It appears the hideous cocktail of dirts, fungus, and acid burns accumulating on your feet has attracted the attention of a Rockwater Troglodyte, a rare species of fish native almost exclusively to the aquifer beneath the Twisted Acres. In one quick motion, you snatch the Troglodyte out of the water and bite into it. Scales, frigid water, and raw fish meat coalesce on your tongue, filling you with nostalgia.

Eating voraciously, you very nearly swallow a small, metallic object. After [b]fish[/b]ing the object out of your gullet, you wipe it off and examine it in the dull light provided.

It appears to be a ring, of exceptional quality. Iridescent fire opal cut in a radiant oval shape line the middle of the ring, separated by baguettes of glimmering pink alexandrite offer a dazzling view supplanted only by the fascinating way the fish's mucous and blood is pooling in the pits of your fingernails. 

As you clutch the ring tightly, it turns red-hot, forcing you to release your grip and place the ring in an impromptu mitten made from tattered shirt-cloth. It appears that [i]any[/i] significant pressure put on the ring will cause it to rapidly heat up! Perhaps some use can be found for this ring, and perhaps it's got other effects?
