Talisman

Talismans are a new type of amulet exclusive to the Talisman challenge league. All talismans are corrupted when they drop, so they cannot be modified. They have special implicit modifiers more powerful than ordinary amulets and can be normal, magic, rare, or unique.

Talismans are encountered in the wild as a mob 'possessed' by a Talisman, visually similar to possession by a Tormented Spirit. Talismans can possess any rarity of enemy and will always spawn possessing a mob. When the mob is killed, the Talisman drops as an item -- but if it is not picked up quickly by the player, it will attract another enemy and possess that enemy instead. Each type of Talisman grants the mob it possesses extra combat abilities related to its implicit modifier.
