Beast-Quelling Choker</b> [Artifact <b>••• to •••••]
Gossamer-and-essence collar, permanent Glamour
No commitment cost

Born out of the obvious need to trim down the cost of maintaining control over behemoths, these curious collars have come into fashion amongst the raksha who make the most use of these Wyld-monsters. Powered by the dreams of master animal handlers, tamers and hunters, the Essence and dreamstuff caught within filter and realign what Essence is fed through them into the behemoth, allowing for a more efficient attunement. There is said to be an extremely rare variant of this wyld artifact (Artifact N/A) that not only greatly lessens the Essence strain on the beasthandler, but also empowers the behemoth itself.

These collars vary in appearance depending on the whims and tastes of the maker, but are always a foot in diameter in their base form. When applied to a behemoth that a being is attuned to or is the master of, the collar resizes to fit snugly around some visible point on the creature's body (usually the neck or neck-analogue). Once placed, the collar cannot be removed until the behemoth is either permanently released from their owner's care or destroyed utterly.

The three-dot variant lessens the commitment cost needed to attune to the behemoth by two, the four-dot by four and the five-dot by six. This can specifically reduce a behemoth's commitment cost to zero; the owner merely has to attain a faint link using a negligible amount of Essence.
