Yes, I was running a campaign where one of the players was the ruler of
Talanie(and I agree, the "Player's Secrets" give out WAY to much info to
actually give out
to the player...), and I did intend to use this item. The way I described it
was that each
of the pins was slightly different with a different pattern and grooves. The
pins where part
of an elaborate puzzle which the necklace was only part of. Completed it
created a spear
head.

Yes, several. Some time ago we discussed on this list the possibility of
atype of "kinght" of Ruornil, esentially paladins, you could use that theory.
You could treat the Champion of Medoere as a holy post, unique to Medoere
with wich the champion wielding the sword can use it's functions as described
(possibly also treating the champion as a paladin). I also seem to remember a
Al'quadim fighter kit, I believe called a "faris" or something liike that. I
don't
remember the specifics, but that may be something you could look into.
