This magical stone appears to be any one of
the other sorts, and testing will not reveal its nature.

However, as soon as the possessor of a stone of weight i s in a situotion where he or she is required
to MOVE quickly in order to avoid an enemy - combat or pursuit -
the item causes a 50% reduction in movement, and even attacks are
reduced to 50% normal rate. Furthermore, the stone cannot be gotten rid of
by any meons- throwing it away or smashing it notwithstanding - and i t
will always turn up somewhere on the character's person. If a dispel evil is
cast upon a loadstone, the item will disappear and no longer haunt the
individual.
