• Ioun Stone of Absorption (Lesser/Greater): Many versions with different limits.
• Ioun Stone of Vigor: Provides fast healing or regeneration.

⚙️ Fun Facts
• Ioun Stones can be damaged or lost — they fly around your head and can be targeted or stolen!
• They have inspired other magical orbiting objects in fantasy games and fiction.
• Some settings have unique Ioun Stones with wild effects like teleportation, language knowledge, or curse removal.

If you’d like, I can generate homebrew Ioun Stones for your campaign, or show you how to create new ones! Want one? 🌟
Alright — here’s an extensive list of 150 original Ioun Stones, inspired by classic D&D mechanics, spells, magic items, and a dash of flavor from ICE’s Spell Law and Amber Diceless.

⚙️ NOTES
These stones are designed to be plug-and-play for any D&D campaign, but feel free to adjust rarity, attunement rules, or limits. Some draw from Spell Law's wild spell effects, Amber’s unaging and reality-bending themes, or pure D&D design.
If you’d like, I can format this into a PDF handout, generate random tables for them, or write lore blurbs for each type. Want that? ⚔️✨
