Time Drums

This type of talisman dates from the Purification Crusade. (Honestly, given the sheer number of artifacts descended from one-of-a-kind ethereal constructions, an impartial observer might be forgiven for assuming that the Crusade was merely just a particularly demented R&D evaluation/purchasing trip.) Modern versions tend to be snare drums or bongos, although big ones certainly exist.
Time Drums act as a talisman for Dancing (increasing skill, not granting it), but only for those actually listening to one. The user may not actually dance, but a human continuously using the drum may go without sleep or food without ill effects for one half day per level of the relic. The ancient Maya used these talismans to aid their sacred rituals: modern servitors of Stone, Creation, Hardcore, and Drugs just enjoy the truly wild parties that you can throw with one. This would make sensitive celestials wince, assuming that you can find one that really and truly cares about whether a pagan religious item gets used frivolously.
