Heart Thief
This looks like a short wooden staff or rod with a large carved dragon’s claw on one end. It can be used once to cast steal heart (see the Spells section). When activated, the heart appears in the wooden dragon’s claw and is destroyed. Now the victim cannot be restored to life until the item is destroyed. Most users proceed to lock a used hear thief away in a well guarded vault, drop it, weighted down, into the deepest part of the ocean, or cast it off into the Astral Plane. It can only be used once.

Strong necromancy; CL 13th; Craft Wondrous Item, steal heart; Price 4,500 gp; Weight 5 lbs.
