Ring, artifact

The young halfling backed away from the edge of the clearing when she saw the sleeping gnolls.  A flash of light and a loud crack made her spin around to see the gnoll watchman on his behind with his axe ten feet away.

Ancient Ring of Protection

History/Description 

This ring was created by an ancient god for his first deserving subjects.  It allowed them to travel through beast infested lands to their new eden.  It's appearance is of something that once held immeasurable beauty and ornateness but has been greatly worn with time.  The unlimited power it once contained has likewise faded.  This ring used to produce a constant sphere of protection around the wearer but now it only functions sporadically before it's power shorts out.  When the barrier flashes into existence there is a microsecond of light around the character and a loud electrical-sounding crack.

Powers

  • Ring creates a barrier of protection that repels any attack 2x/day.
  • The first attack made causes the dormant barrier to violently jump into action.  Any melee attack is repelled with force causing the attacker to be stunned (25% chance) and knocked back (25% chance).  If knocked back they are prone and lose hold of weapon.  Spells and missiles are reflected in a random direction.
  • Any second attack made against the wearer is also totally repelled but without extra effects as attackers are now aware of the barrier.
  • Ring is exhausted after two attacks and does not function again for 24 hours or until next dawn.
