Version 0.31: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
A talisman to be worn as jewellery around the neck, charged with arcane powers of unknown provenance.

“Gringoire put out his hand for the little bag, but she drew back. 'Do not touch it! It is an amulet, and either you will do mischief to the charm, or it will hurt you.'”
-Victor Marie Hugo, _Notre Dame de Paris_, Book II, chapter VII “A Wedding Night”. 1831.

An amulet is a type of jewellery. Regardless of species, all characters may wear only one amulet at a time. Some amulets require attunement to the wearer to begin functioning, but all amulets require 5 turns to put on or take off to discourage swapping mid-battle.

There are six base types of amulets:

Random artefact amulets use one of these base types, but contain additonal properties. However, a few unrand amulets don't have a base type.
