Towgar's Twin Rings of Strength and Wisdom

Brian Meadows

Towgar was known as a strong and wise king. Though not common knowledge, his strength and wisdom came from a pair of rings he wore on his hands.The first ring was made of ivory inlaid with gold, which imbued him with great wisdom (+6). It also numbs his strength (-3). It was lighter than air. In fact, if worn alone it would pull him straight in the air. The other ring was made of gold inlaid with ivory, which gave him immense strength (+6). However, it was so heavy that he could not put it on without aid. It also sapped his wisdom (-3). The ivory ring weighs -250lbs, and must be tied down if taken off. The gold ring weighs 250lbs. When both rings are worn together the weight is negated, and the wearer feels no further effects. In the end if both are worn, the wearer feels an increase of strength and wisdom by a factor of +3. Ring of the Eight Skills Mytheria This ring made of worked steel doesn't look as if it is of great value. When worn by a thief, it grants a +5% bonus to all thief skills.Should the ring be worn by a bard, it provides a +5 bonus to climb walls, detect noise, pick pockets and read languages. Gem of Hoodwinking Brian Meadows The ring itself does not hold the power, it is the blue jasper set in the center. This gem appears to be an ordinary semi-precious stone of about 15gp value. It can be set into any ordinary gold or silver ring, which will act as a conduit for its power.The Gem of Hoodwinking allows the user to increase his Charisma by +8 for the purposes of buying or selling goods, thus guaranteeing 10-25% lower than the seller's usual best price, or 10-25% more than the appraised value of anything he is selling. (based on die roll: d100 01-30 is 25%, and 31-00 is 10%) Mine: Ring of turning +1 (Subs for protection ring) gives the caster +1 in turning attemps vs undead. Allows turning to be re-rolled.
