The Chain Veil

The Chain Veil is an ancient and powerful artifact that was hidden within the ancient catacombs of the Onakke at Shandalar. It was created to turn someone into a vessel for the resurrection of that long-dead race. [1] It kills its users if they're not strong enough. Others, like Ob Nixilis, are turned into a demon. [2]

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, kill Kothophed and Griselbrand, and pass the demon curse 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]

The veil 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. The Veil has been of great interest to the mysterious individual only known as the Raven Man.
