Guardian of the Urn

From Charmed

In Egypt resides an Urn of priceless value an ancient wizard. After his death a terrible curse was placed upon it, which lives on to this day. Witches magic cannot lift it, and few who have suffered it have lived to warn others of the danger.

When the Urn is stolen, the thief is visited by its beautiful yet merciless Guardian, who appears in a swirl of gold from her engraving on the Urn's side. She can transform objects into lethal animals such as spiders, snakes and scorpions to kill the thief as punishment saying "You are being punished for your greed" before the animal attacks. She is immune to the magical powers of a witch.

The Guardian herself feeds off the greed of those who steal the Urn, in order to survive, but since she only punishes wrong doers and never harms an innocent she cannot be considered demonic. Rather she is on par with the Furies The only way for the thief to redeem himself and escape this punishment is to do something selfless. Only then will she be appeased and return to the Urn.
