The Chain Veil is an ancient and powerful artifact that was hidden within the ancient catacombs of the Onakke at Shandalar.
Description
The Chain Mail is made of burnished gold and is exquisitely crafted, so fine it appears to have the texture of silk. When worn, it covers the face.
It was created to turn someone into a vessel for the resurrection of the long-dead Onakke. [1] It kills its users if they're not strong enough. Others, like Ob Nixilis, are turned into a demon. [2]
History
The Veil has been of great interest to the mysterious individual only known as the Raven Man.
The planeswalker Liliana Vess retrieved the Chain Veil from the catacombs at Shandalar, as instructed by the demon Kothophed. [3] Wearing it over her face she was able to enhance her power, destroy Kothophed and Griselbrand, and pass the demon curse to Garruk Wildspeaker. She appeared to be too strong to be killed or demonized herself. However, as the Veil took hold of her she seemed to become possessed by its eldritch spirits. [4]
On Innistrad, Liliana tried to exorcize the spirits from the veil, with help from the geistmage Dierk and a witchbane orb loaned from Olivia Voldaren. This wasn't succesfull.[5]
