Corvus' talisman
Corvus' talisman is a necklace made of plates of silver. Many of the plates
contain a small piece of a different magical material; mandrake, human skull,
red coral, butterfly cocoon and magnetite.
The necklace is enchanted to notice when it is touching an animal (Perceive
the Change, InAn) and then correspondingly change it's size to match the
animal's size (MuTe), so Corvus can wear it even while shapeshifted.

Instilled effects
Perceive the Change (InAn9)
R: Per, D:Sun, T:Ind
Pen 0, Constant effect
This effect detects whether the enchanted item is touching an animal; if so, it triggers any effects tied to it with a Linked Trigger. Linked powers should be designed with constant effect. It cancels any linked effects as soon as human form is assumed. The wielder can choose not to resist this effect (see ArM5, page 99). If this effect is instilled in a talisman, it can be made with Personal Range for a final level of 9.
