This ring's wrapped silver wire encases a polished Khes Shard. The many twists and curves of wire covering the shard resemble folds of an exposed brain, and its deep golden color is embedded with dark lines pulsing under their own power.
Perhaps in honor of Khespotan's influence over the Knowledge and Prophecy domains, the shard powering this ring's magic allows a wearer to read subconscious thoughts of others. It contains a maximum number of charges equal to the Intelligence modifier of its current wielder (minimum 1) and regains 1d3 charges each dawn.
- As a bonus action you may spend one charge and activate the ring to gain insight on decisions a target will soon make. This manifests as tactical advantage on your next attack or skill roll against the target. The advantage expires if not used by the end of your following turn.
- As an action you may spend three charges to cast the spell Detect Thoughts without using spell slots or providing material components.
- You can use an action to cause the ring to become invisible until you use another action to make it visible, or until you remove the ring. In addition, the ring will make itself visible when in the presence of those with the gift of Prophecy.
When a current target of the insight ability dies from an attack by the wielder part of the target's memory is transferred to the ring at random. Roll a d4 and consult the list below for which type of knowledge is transferred. The wielder can then consult memory fragments in the ring to gain advantage on knowledge checks matching the transferred subject. Using the ring in this way is a free action which happens simultaneously with the skill check and does not expend a charge. If a new target of the insight power is killed the die is rolled again and this new result replaces the former subject type.
