Item Details
Description: The Cape of Defiance is a magical item that provides its wearer with protection against incoming magical attacks. While wearing this cape, the following effects apply:
-
Magic Absorption: The cape can absorb all forms of incoming magic. When you are hit by a spell, roll is reduced by 2d8 (the exact amount may be determined by your Dungeon Master based on the specific spell and its effects). This reduction applies even before any other resistance or reduction effects. If affected with multiple different types of magic, the cape will absorb the element with the lowest incoming amount first.
-
Defensive Vulnerability: In exchange for this protection, while wearing the Cape of Defiance, your Armor Class (AC) is reduced by 1.
-
Forced Retaliation: If the cape completely absorbs an attack, you must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or feel compelled to retaliate against the caster of the spell that was absorbed. Upon failure, the wearer feels utterly compelled to attack the spell caster and will do everything in their power to do so, unable to focus on anything else for the next 10 minutes or until the attack lands.
