The Talisman of Seven Hammers was a compass-like device, that was created by the Primarch Vulkan following his resurrection after the Battle of Nocturne. Though due to being disoriented following his rebirth, he did not remember forging it. The device served as a "compass" that guided Vulkan and his three Draaksward through the Webway to Terra. It also had crippling powers over the Daemonic, and was able to give the Great Unclean One Aghalbor a True Death.

七锤护身符是一种指南针般的装置，由原体沃坎在夜曲星之战后复活后创造。虽然由于重生后迷失了方向，他不记得锻造了它。这个装置就像一个“指南针”，引导沃坎和他的三位火龙之剑穿过网道威到达泰拉。它对恶魔也有致命的力量，并能够给大不净者阿高博尔带来真正的死亡。

In truth, the Talisman was constructed by Vulkan under the guidance of the Emperor and its true purpose was to serve as a Dead man's switch. Installed into the Golden Throne, the Talisman would activate should the Throne fail. This would create a roaring inferno that would consume all of Terra, denying Horus and the powers of Chaos the Throneworld should they emerge victorious in the coming struggle. The Emperor always intended for Vulkan to construct and oversee the activation of the Talisman. The Talisman can not be activated by any save Vulkan himself.

事实上，护身符是沃坎在帝皇的指导下创造的，其真正目的是作为死者的开关。安装在黄金王座上，如果王座失败，护身符将被激活。这将创造一个咆哮的地狱，吞噬整个泰拉，否定荷鲁斯和王座世界上的混沌之力，如果他们在即将到来的战斗中取得胜利。帝皇一直打算让沃坎创造并监督护身符的激活。除沃坎本人外，任何人都无法激活护身符。
