Translation Talisman

Legends Canon version → Linked from 1 article

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Translation talismans were magical Sith amulets that allowed the wearer to read and understand the language of the Sith species as though it were their native speech. King Ommin of Onderon possessed one such amulet, which he allowed the Tetan heir Satal Keto to use. When Keto put the amulet around his neck, he was instantly able to understand the text of a stolen Sith spellbook in his possession, something he was previously unable to do.
