How can i get "Icosahedron Ioun Stone"?
And Book Imp companion ?

Thanks!

you get the book imp at dungeon master lv 6, you need both foundry authoring achievements and foundry community achievements. That meant lots of foundry creating and foundry playing basically.

Book Imp: Lots of work.
Icosahedron: Lots and lots of work.

Seriously, it's no small achievement to get the Book Imp. It requires hundreds of hours of work building foundry quests, plus a lot of time invested playing/rating/tipping other people's quests.
The Icosahedron is nearly impossible unless you were one of the lucky few to get featured at the very beginning and get 50,000 plays.

I got featured and have more than 70.000 plays but I still need many more achievements before I get the stone XD

Ok so we need 17 "Foundry Authoring" and 10 "Foundry Community" achievements for Book Imp and 26 "Foundry Authoring" and 16 "Foundry Community" achievements for Icosahedron.

Oh my god.
Thanks all! xD

^^^ thats why the stone is probably one of the rarest things in the game, you can probably count on one hand the number of people who have ever gotten one, and most of those are no longer here (at least they dont post anymore). It's also account bound. The book imp is only a bit less rare.

I've got one, and I'm still here. (Though, I admit, I've got a three unfinished Foundry adventures sitting in limbo while I take some time to enjoy other aspects of the game for a while...)

As you've heard from everyone else, getting the Imp takes a lot of work. A LOT of work. Getting the Stone is even harder. It's safe to say that it requires hundreds of hours of creative investment, not to mention playing through many, many Foundries (and, unfortunately, enduring many, many bad experiences from incomplete works that offer no credit for one of the achievements).

On the other hand, if you like writing stories, fiddling around with map editing, and sharing your creations with others, working toward those achievements can be a lot of fun. You simply have to think of it as an entirely different gaming experience.

Right now I'm closing in on my final Foundry achievement -- the "Moonstar" title. But it's up to the players at this point. All that's left is earning those bazillion tips. (At the current rate I'm seeing, I hope to have my final title in a week or so.)

One reward that hasn't been mentioned much is the Silverback Bear mount. It's a purple mount that appears on all characters in the account, which is pretty handy if you haven't purchased one from the Zen market or something. Of course, it still sounds like a horse when you summon it (though I've been assured that will be fixed in some upcoming patch, and it's fixed internally on the dev's build). And I really wish they had put a little more time into making this uber-rare mount a little more exciting visually. (It's just a very small brown bear with silverish tinted fur on its back. No armor. No effects.) I wish they'd grab the new Polar Bear model and reskin it with more dramatic colors -- black/dark brown fur and a silver stripe down its back, so the contrast makes it stand out more -- and maybe even give it glowing eyes or something -- rather than leaving it looking almost the same as a low-level mount available to everyone for a few Zen.)

The bear is also minimum level 60 for some odd reason. I hope that too is planned to be fixed in an upcoming patch so my low level characters can use it too.
