This band is small and is worn on the wrist of its prey. When attuned to this item it vaguely glimmers in a blueish light. On touch it feels cold - unnaturally cold even for metal. The light seems to be consumed around.

As a bonus action, while you are attuned to this item, you can cast the darkness spell or misty step for 1 charge.

As an action you can cast the darkness spell at will.

You can regain 1 additional charge when you sacrifice 1d8 hit points. You can use this feature as many times up to a maximum of times equals to your proficiency bonus. This feature resets after a long rest.

Whenever you activate this item (use a spell)  you must succeed a Wisdom saving throw with a DC 10. On a success nothing happens. On a failed save the darkness of the ring starts to consume you. You lose 1d4 max hit points. This cursed life loss can only be reverted back from the greater restoration spell. 

When you lost over 100 life to this items effects it transforms into Shadow Consuming Ring or when your max life total is less than half of its starting value.

Notes: This cursed item attunes itself to the first person that touches it. It cannot be removed except with remove curse., Cursed
