Timoclea's Diadem

Origin
Timoclea was a prominent Theban noblewoman, who is most known for her act of defying Macedonian rule and killing her rapist, as described in Plutarch's Life of Alexander.

Timoclea's brother, Theagenes, commanded his city's army against Philip II of Macedon at the battle of Chaeronea, but was defeated and killed. The loss of Thebes and the majority of Greece meant the former power was put under the political dominion of Macedon, where it quietly remained until 355 B.C.E, a year after Philip's death and the accession of Alexander the Great. It's rebellion that year was not successful, but Alexander's troops moved into Thebes to further oppress the rioting city.

Timoclea's home was seized by a general searching for gold and silver, who forced her household to serve him before raping Timoclea. Suspecting that she had more wealth hidden on the property, the general demanded Timoclea show him where she hid it. Claiming that she had indeed hid some wealth at the bottom of a dry well in the garden, Timoclea led the general to the well and pushed him in, before proceeding to pelt his body with rocks from above and, ultimately, burying him alive.

His troops eventually found his body, and arrested Timoclea, bringing her before Alexander. In a proud show of dignity against her oppressors, Timoclea berated Alexander, his men, and Macedonia. Impressed by her spirit, Alexander pardoned her and freed her and her children.

Effects
Touching individuals wearing the diadem will force the other person deep below the surface of the immediate ground, potentially burying them alive.

Collection
The diadem was originally collected by Alexander, who recognized it when Timoclea was brought before him. It was lost and found along with the rest of the artifacts in Warehouse 2.
