Wondrous Item

Legendary The Craving’s Oath

Unleash Desire

  As an action, you can touch a creature while wearing the ring to expose their innermost desire. The target must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save:

• The creature becomes charmed by you for 1 hour.

• While charmed, you learn their greatest, most secret desire.

• You have advantage on Persuasion and Deception checks against them during this time.

• The creature is distracted by their desire, and all attack rolls against them have advantage.

 

Aura of Fascination

  While wearing the ring, you emit a subtle aura of irresistible allure in a 30-foot radius. As a bonus action, you can activate this aura. Each creature of your choice within range must succeed on a DC 18 Charisma saving throw or become fascinated for 1 minute.

• Fascinated creatures are incapacitated and cannot take actions or reactions, completely enthralled by you.

• The effect ends if the creature takes damage or is forcibly moved.

This ability can be used twice per long rest.  

Heightened Indulgence

  The ring enhances your ability to fulfill your desires.

• You have advantage on Charisma (Persuasion) and Charisma (Deception) checks.

• You can cast Suggestion once per long rest without expending a spell slot.

 

Lure of Craving

  As an action, you can choose a creature within 60 feet that can see you. The target must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or develop an overwhelming desire for something you name (e.g., an object, person, or idea). This craving lasts for 1 hour. The creature is compelled to seek out or obtain what they crave, even putting themselves at risk. This ability can be used three times per long rest.  

Enhanced Properties (Post-Attunement)

 

Dominion of Desire

  The range of Unleash Desire increases to 60 feet and no longer requires touch. The aura of Aura of Fascination increases to 60 feet. Any creature charmed or fascinated by the ring cannot willingly move more than 10 feet away from you unless they succeed on a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw.  

Seduction's Call

  You gain the ability to cast Dominate Person once per long rest. The target has disadvantage on their saving throw if you previously used Lure of Craving or Unleash Desire on them.  

Temptation Unbound

  You can now see the deepest desires of any creature you can see within 60 feet, no action required. You gain the ability to alter the target's desires as an action. The target must make a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save:

• You can change what the target craves most.

• This effect lasts for 1 day or until you end it early as a bonus action.

 

Special Ability - Forbidden Yearning

  Recharge: Once per long rest As an action, you invoke the Forbidden Yearning, unleashing a powerful wave of uncontrollable desire. Every creature within 60 feet of you must make a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, they are overwhelmed by their own deepest cravings.  

• Creatures are incapacitated for 1 minute, lost in vivid hallucinations of their desires being fulfilled.

• While incapacitated, creatures are considered blinded and deafened to their surroundings.

• For the duration, you may command them as if you were using the Dominate Person spell, but the command must align with the desire they are currently experiencing.

• If they succeed on the saving throw, they take 4d10 psychic damage as the realization of their unfulfilled desires shatters their resolve.

 

Curses

 

Insatiable Temptation

  Every dawn, you must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure:

• You are overwhelmed by an uncontrollable desire for something you crave (e.g., wealth, power, beauty, knowledge).

• For 24 hours, you have disadvantage on Insight and Wisdom saving throws as your mind is consumed by temptation.

• If you fail this saving throw three times in a row, you develop an obsession with your craving, which may drive you to act against your own allies.

 

Corrupted Will

  After being attuned to the ring for 30 days, you begin to lose control of your impulses. You automatically fail saving throws against effects that would charm or tempt you. Your ability to resist magical compulsion is diminished, and you must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw to resist compulsions such as Suggestion and Dominate Person, even if you would normally be immune to such effects.  

Desire's Brand

  The more you give in to the ring’s power, the more it marks you as a servant of Nudasi. A glowing brand, in the shape of the ring's gemstone, appears on your wrist. You take 4d10 psychic damage if you attempt to remove the ring without divine intervention.

The Ring of Craving is a sleek band of tarnished silver, adorned with an iridescent gemstone that shifts colors to reflect the wearer’s inner desires. The swirling etchings along its surface glow faintly with an otherworldly pulse, almost as if the ring itself were breathing. The artifact is said to embody the essence of Nudasi, the goddess of Lust, Addiction, and Temptation. Those who wear the ring find themselves teetering on the edge of indulgence, constantly wrestling with the temptation to seize what they crave most. While it offers immense power over the desires of others, it also feeds on the wearer's willpower, eroding their self-control over time.
