Ankh of Power (Magic Ankh)

Each of the gods of the Great Ennead has the power to create an ankh of power at will. In practice, however, they are rarely manufactured. It is believed that fewer than a dozen of these priceless objects exist.
In the hands of a priest who worships a member of the Great Ennead, an ankh of power glows as if under the influence of a continual light spell. The light is pure and holy, having the power to drive away any undead creature it shines upon. Any attempt to conceal or darken the light is an affront to the gods and results in the instant destruction of the ankh.
Any healing spell cast by a priest while holding the ankh in hand is at double effectiveness. Further, as long as the object is in his or her possession, the priest is immune to all forms of poison and disease, including such unusual afflictions as mummy rot and lycanthropy.
Lastly, an ankh of power can cast a sunray spell three times per day if the priest speaks a command word unique to the individual ankh.
