Wondrous Item, very rare (requires attunement by a character must spend a short rest focusing on its dark energies.)

This tall, pointed hat carries an aura of dark mystique and is adorned with tattered fabric and eerie symbols. Once belonging to the infamous Baron Ashbury, a powerful spellcaster, this hat bestows both arcane prowess and an air of malevolence upon its wearer.

Features:

  • Witch's Authority:
    The wearer gains proficiency in the Intimidation skill, and they have advantage on Charisma (Intimidation) checks when dealing with creatures of the night or those susceptible to fear.
  • Dark Resonance:
    The hat resonates with the dark magic of Baron Ashbury. When the wearer casts a spell that deals necrotic damage, they can add their proficiency bonus to the damage dealt.
  • Veil of Shadows:
    Once per long rest, the wearer can use an action to shroud themselves in an ethereal veil of shadows. While veiled, they have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks, and any creature relying on darkvision or other forms of magical sight has disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to detect the wearer.
  • Cursed Elegance:
    The hat adjusts its appearance to suit the wearer's style while maintaining an ominous allure. The wearer gains advantage on Charisma (Deception) checks to disguise themselves, as the hat subtly influences the perceptions of those around them.

Curse:
While attuned to Baron Ashbury's Witches Hat, the wearer becomes more attuned to the shadows, occasionally hearing disconcerting whispers and experiencing vivid nightmares. The curse can affect the wearer's sleep, causing restless nights and possible exhaustion.

The curse can only be lifted through a powerful magical ritual or the intervention of a being with the ability to dispel curses.

Notes: Advantage: Stealth, Sense: Darkvision, Proficiency: Intimidation, Advantage: Intimidation, character must spend a short rest focusing on its dark energies.
