DESCRIPTION

This ring appears to be a ring of wizardry. When worn, the wearer’s mind becomes muddled. He forgets spell components, mumbles during casting and makes mistakes in the somatic gestures required for many of the spells he tries to cast. The severity of the effects depend on the ring type.

• A type I ring causes the spell caster to make an arcane spell failure check at a base 40% chance for any spell cast.
• A type II ring causes the caster to make an arcane spell failure check at a base 50% chance for any spell cast.
• A type III ring causes the caster to make an arcane spell failure check at a base 60% chance for any spell cast.
• A type IV ring causes the caster to make an arcane spell failure check at a base 70% chance for any spell cast.

The arcane spell failure chance can be further modified by other factors, such as armor worn, etc.

This ring can be removed by casting remove curse followed by a successful dispel magic upon it. Doing so renders the ring non-magical.
