The Vanishing

[Zlorf]

My players just got the first item which is infected with the Vanishing. The item is an ioun stone, which im pretty sure they will sell to Skye before the infection takes place. A couple of questions i have:

1)How does someone get rid of Vanishing from an item without destroying it?
2)How has Skye handled the items once she realized they are infected?

Notes: Im sure Skye wont know that the item is infected, but may find out if an irate customer comes back half faded, who knows something about the history of Jzadirune. Skye may know something about the history of Jzadirune and start asking the PC's whether they got the items from there.

TIA

Remove Curse should do the trick. THe description says it will remove a Curse from any Item or person. Except for Shields, weapons, and armor.

Read up on Remove Curse in your PHB or in the SRD.

Being Skie likes to hear stories from her patrons, the PC's may say where they got it. And I wouldn't find it hard to believe that she knows about the Vanishing. I'd have her tell them to get those items cured before they sell them. ANd being the business woman she is, she would probably get verification from the church that probably helped in the removal of the curse.

Thanks, i did read remove curse, but what about weapons, armour and shield. I can't remember if any of these types of items are still available from Jzadirune, if they were is there anything that may remove the curse for them.

I think that there is no armor/weapon/shield infected with the Vanishing in Jzadirune (there is none at all magical), only scrolls, potions, wands and miscellaneous items.
Remove curse will work as described.
I think that Remove disease will work on creatures infected with the Vanishing, it's a kind of magical disease (like mummy rot).
