Lore
Orb of Death
死の宝珠
Magic ItemsNew World Items
An intelligent, talking item made in the New World; it helps control undead, casts necromantic spells several times a day, and manipulates its human holder.
- It looks like a rough, round black-iron stone, like a raw stone from a riverbed (Vol. 2)
- Originally owned by Khajiit, who used it for the "Death Spiral"; it helped him summon Skeletal Dragons and let [Create Undead] affect several corpses at once
- Ineffective against demi-humans, Heteromorphic races, and anyone with countermeasures against mental manipulation
- Sensing Ainz's absolute aura of "death," it swore loyalty to him; it now sits in Hamsuke's cheek pouch and talks now and then
- It gives even Hamsuke a big power boost, enough to kill an opponent like Erya instantly (author's afterword)
- An item of roughly level 40 (Web novel)
- Its appearance is described at Vol. 2 p. 316 and p. 365, and its functions at Vol. 2 p. 366
- Web novel: it tried and failed to dominate Narberal (Web "Promotion Exam-3"); the light novels changed this so that it does not work on demi-humans, Heteromorphic races, or anyone with countermeasures against mental manipulation
Notes
It refers to itself with an archaic word for "I"; the anime and the films cut its speech and its oath of loyalty. In the Web novel, after it failed to dominate Narberal, it was given to her.
