A small magical device patterned off ancient Azlanti relics, a wayfinder is a compact compass typically made from silver and bearing gold accents. A badge of office for agents of the Pathfinder Society, a wayfinder is as much a handy tool as a status symbol.
With a command word, the wayfinder shines as the light power. It can also act as a nonmagical (magnetic) compass, granting the user a free reroll on Survival (navigation) rolls.
All wayfinders include a small indentation designed to hold a single ioun stone. An ioun stone slotted in this manner grants you its normal benefits as if it were orbiting your head; some ioun stones can grant additional powers once they are fitted into a wayfinder.
The following list shows the common effects for some slotted ioun stones, though there may be others at the GM’s discretion.
Clear Spindle: Once per day as a limited action, the wearer can cast minor deflection on himself.
Deep Red Sphere: The wearer has the Brawler Edge as long as he have this ioun stone slotted.
Incandescen Blue Sphere: Once per day as a limited action, the wearer can cast minor darksight on himself.
Dark Blue Rhomboid: The wearer suffers no penalties to Notice rolls while asleep.
Iridescent Spindle: The wearer benefits from environmental protection as long as this ioun stone is slotted.
Pale Green Prism: Once per day as a limited action the wearer removes 1 Fatigue.
Vibrant Purple Prism: Once per day, the wearer can gain 2 Power Points as a limited action.
Cost: 500 gp; Weight: 1 lb.
Craft: 250 gp.
