Lore & History
The Necromantic Idol served as the primary focal point for the necromantic ritual discovered within the Bridgeport Warehouse. Its presence maintained a green glow of possession over the Bridgeport Mason and provided the energy required to animate various stone statues and a clay golem.
Upon its destruction, the necromantic hold on the room was broken: the animated constructs solidified and the mason was freed from his possessed state.
