Basically what it says on the tin, it will proc a random effect that will get you out of a dangerous situation, or make the situation worse, on twenty minute cooldown, they will each have a theme for a class, y
ou don't have to be that class that is listed to get it, all twenty effects will have a chance an equal chance of proccing, so it might save you, or screw you, depending on how lucky you get.
Each class has a change to get any listed below, I am merely stating here which class the effects are based on, you will have a chance to get any effect, good or bad, on any character.
1.Mage, teleports you instantly to Theramore or Stonard, For horde and alliance respectively.
2.Warlock, casts a soul stone upon yourself that lasts for ten seconds, or summons a doomguard that is hostile, 50/50 shot.
3.Priest, 50/50 shot for desperate prayer, or power word shield as if casted by a level one.
4.Druid, shifts into tree of life form and spams undispellable heals on you, cannot attack during effect, or shapeshift into moonkin form, and cast moonfire on yourself without GCD.
5.Rogue, instantly casts vanish, has a high chance of being resisted, will remain stealthed until canceled.
6.Monk, teleports you to the peak of serenity, or drains all resources.
7.Hunter, will cause you to fake your death, or summons a random animal to attack you
8.Shaman, allows you to use reincarnation if you die within ten seconds, or procs frost shock on next attack, 50/50 shot
9.Warrior, procs victory rush on next hit, or last stand, 50/50 shot.
10.Paladin, grants absolute invincibility, and grants a non cancelable spell to take you to hearth location, or breaks all your armor and weapons.
11.Death knight, instantly teleports you to Ebon hold, temporarily marks you as hated by Knights of the Ebon blade.
It will be expensive, and simply a gimmick item for engineers. It will go in the trinket slot and offers no stats.
What'cha guys think?
Edited for those who cannot read apparently...

12. Unusable in Raid, Quest & PvP encounters.
Otherwise, it's a nifty engi idea :)

unbalanced. 50% chance to proc powerful CDs? Instant hearths? That's just a little bit over the top.

You have much less than a 50% chance, you have to calculate each chance as having the same proc rate, and all 11 possibilities can happen, with some of them having two separate possibilities themselves, also has a chance to completely screw you over, and isn't on short cooldown. It's dangerous, but can save your life, exactly the kind of thing Engineers are known for, risky but worthwhile if it pays off.

Ah, that was unclear. I assumed by including the class names that you only had a chance for the effects corresponding to your class to occur.
