	Belial and Dorothea signed a contract penned by Belial, seen below. The arrangement involved gifting Dorothea a '''Vessel of Belial'''. After being attuned, this vessel could take the appearance of any small or medium vessel desired, such as an urn, a flask, or a cookie jar. Dorothea chose the third. The attuned could use their reaction to open the vessel, and any souls of creatures that had died in the past 6 seconds within 60 feet would be captured into the vessel. This vessel can hold up to 100 souls.		Belial and Dorothea signed a contract penned by Belial, seen below. The arrangement involved gifting Dorothea a '''[[Vessel]] of Belial'''.
