extends to you. As long as you remain cursed, you auto-
matically question, disagree with, or outright defy any
plan or suggested action put to you by your allies. You
can roleplay this contrariness, or the DM can direct your
character’s actions as need be.
The contrary nature imposed by the ring does not allow
others to trick you into taking specific actions. For exam-
ple, if allies aware of the ring’s power want to flee a com-
bat encounter, they might all insist that you should not flee
the encounter, hoping to incite the opposite response from
you. However, you are free to simply take an alternative
course of action within the encounter, and the DM might
impose such an action on you if you go along with other
players trying to manipulate your contrariness.
While you are cursed, you cannot remove the ring
until you are targeted by the remove curse spell or sim-
ilar magic. If anyone attempts to help you end the ring’s
curse, the nature of the curse causes you to resist those
efforts to the best of your ability.
RING OF COUNTERSPELLS
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
This gold band is set with arcane sigils that any wizard
recognizes as defining part of the formula for the coun-
terspell spell. The ring has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3
expended charges daily at dawn. While you wear the
ring, you can use your reaction to expend 1 of its charges
and cast counterspell from it. You make the spell’s ability
check with a +4 modifier.
RING OF DELUSION

This cursed ring appears to be some other sort of magi-

stressful situation (as determined by the DM), the curse
extends to you. As long as you remain cursed, you and
any allies who can see you use the ring believe that its
magic continues to function normally. Enemies and
other creatures, as well as allies not present when a de-
lusive effect of the ring is activated, do not share in your
delusion.
For example, if you use a ring of delusion that has the
initial normal function of a ring of djinni summoning, you
and any allies present when you activate the ring after its
curse extends to you collectively hallucinate the appear-
ance of the djinni you summon, as well as any effects of
your commands to the djinni, as determined by the DM.
If you make use of a ring of delusion in the form of a ring
of regeneration or a ring of resistance, the DM will se-
cretly track your real hit points to ignore your imaginary
reduced damage or healing, with you and your allies
perfectly convinced of the state of your health until you
unexpectedly keel over in combat.
If you activate a ring of delusion that has the appear-
ance of a ring of invisibility, you and your allies will be-
lieve that you have become invisible — even as enemies
and other creatures see you clearly. Likewise, a ring of
delusion masquerading as a ring of feather falling will
leave you and allies who see you fall convinced that you
descended at a safe speed, and wondering what unseen
magic or creature fatally bludgeoned you as you landed.
While you are cursed, you cannot remove the ring until
you are targeted by the remove curse spell or similar
magic.
RING OF DISEASE IMMUNITY
Ring, uncommon
This ring is forged of copper and wound with silver wire.
While you wear this ring, you are immune to contracting
any disease. If you are already infected with a disease,
the effects of the disease are suppressed while you wear
the ring.
Additionally, as an action, you can touch a creature
and end one disease afflicting it. Once used, this property
of the ring can’t be used until the next dawn.
RING OF DRAGONS
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
Cast of brass in the form of a dragon eating its own tail,
this ring is forged by agents of the Cult of the Dragon for
the use of the cult’s leaders. While you wear this ring,
you are able to communicate verbally or telepathically
with any dragon you can see. As an action, you can also
telepathically send a nonverbal alert to any dracolich or
evil dragon on the same plane as you whose name you
know. The subject of the alert immediately knows your
location and identity, though it does not need to respond
to your call unless it sees fit.
4
 Additionally, you can use an action to create an illusion
of any dragon you have personally seen, placing the il-
lusion anywhere within 60 feet of you. This effect is like
the minor illusion spell (save DC 17), except that it is not
limited by size. Once used, this property of the ring can’t
be used until the next dawn.
RING OF FLIGHT
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
A delicate band of silver, this ring is scribed with a pat-
tern of interlocking birds’ wings. If you fall while wearing
this ring, you descend 60 feet per round and take no
damage from falling.
Additionally, you can use an action to gain a flying
speed equal to your base walking speed for 1 hour, and
you can hover. Once used, this property of the ring can’t
be used until the next dawn.
RING OF FORCE SHIELD
Ring, uncommon (requires attunement)
This heavy iron ring is notched and scratched as if it has
been struck repeatedly, though it resists any attempt to
mar it. While you wear the ring, you can use a bonus
action to surround yourself with a shield of invisible mag-
ical force, granting you a +2 bonus to AC that lasts until
the start of your next turn.
RING OF FRIEND SHIELD
Ring, rare (requires attunement)
This broad ring has the appearance of two separate
bands of gleaming silver separated by a narrow gap,
though no amount of force can separate the two parts.
The ring has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3 expended
charges daily at dawn. While you wear it, you can use an
action to expend 1 of the ring’s charges and target one
ally you can see. For the next hour, whenever the ally
would take damage from an attack, it takes half the dam-
age and you take half the damage. If either of you have
damage resistance or vulnerability, that resistance or
vulnerability is applied after the damage is halved.
You can end this effect early as a bonus action.
RING OF HUMANOID INFLUENCE
Ring, uncommon (requires attunement)
This black lacquered ring is set with four chips of gleam-
ing white bone. While you wear the ring, you have advan-
tage on Charisma checks made to influence or interact
with humanoid creatures.
Additionally, the ring has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3
expended charges daily at dawn. You can cast the follow-
ing spells from the ring, expending the necessary num-
ber of charges: charm person (1 charge) or suggestion (2
charges; humanoid target only). Spells cast from the ring
have a save DC of 13.

RING OF IRONGUARD
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
This band of plain iron grows noticeably warm when
touched to any other metal. While you wear this ring,
you have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slash-
ing damage from nonmagical attacks made with metal
weapons.
Additionally, you can use an action to make yourself
and any equipment you are wearing or carrying wholly
intangible to nonmagical metal for 1 minute. This grants
you immunity to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing
damage from nonmagical attacks made with metal
weapons, and you have advantage on weapon attack rolls
you make against creatures wearing metal armor. You
can move through objects made wholly of nonmagical
metal as if they were difficult terrain, including bars,
gates, doors, and walls. If you end your turn inside a
metal object, you take 1d6 force damage. If this effect
ends while you occupy the same space as a metal object,
you are shunted to the nearest unoccupied space. Once
used, this property of the ring can’t be used until the next
dawn.
RING OF LORE
Ring, rare
This band of blue-gray steel is incised with arcane runes
of knowledge. The ring has 3 charges, and it regains
1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. You can cast the
following spells from the ring, expending the necessary
number of charges: detect magic (1 charge), identify (2
charges), legend lore (3 charges).
RING OF MIGHT
Ring, uncommon (requires attunement)
This heavy silver ring is embossed with the sigil of a
hammer, and was first forged by clerics of Tyr. While you
wear the ring, your unarmed strike uses a d8 for damage.
Any creature hit by one or more of your unarmed strikes
while you wear the ring bears a fist-sized imprint of a
hammer at the site of the first such strike, which lasts
until the damage is healed.
RING OF NINE LIVES
Ring, legendary (requires attunement)
This ivory ring has been carved to resemble the visage of
a cat. The ring has 9 charges. While you wear the ring, if
you ever drop to 0 hit points, you automatically expend 1
of the ring’s charges (no action required) to instead drop
to 1 hit point and target yourself with a heal spell cast
from the ring.
Alternatively, if you fail a saving throw, you can use
your reaction to expend 1 of the ring’s charges to suc-
ceed on the saving throw instead.
When all the ring’s charges are expended, it becomes a
nonmagical ring worth 50 gp.
5
RING OF SHOCKING GRASP
Ring, rare (requires attunement)
This ring is crafted of twisted strands of gleaming cop-
per. While wearing the ring, you can cast the shocking
grasp cantrip at will, dealing 1d8 lightning damage on a
hit. When you make the spell’s attacks, you do so with an
attack bonus of +5.
If your attack roll with the cantrip is successful, you
can use your reaction to increase the damage to 4d8
lightning damage. Once used, this property of the ring
can’t be used until the next dawn.
RING OF SPELL-BATTLE
Ring, legendary (requires attunement by a spellcaster)
This gold ring is set with spheres of silver. It has 3
charges, and regains 1d3 expended charges daily at
dawn. While you wear the ring, you become automatical-
ly aware of all spellcasting that occurs within 60 feet of
you as long as you are conscious, even if you cannot see
the spellcaster. Further, you know the name and level of
each spell being cast.
As a reaction, you can expend 1 of the ring’s charges
to cast the counterspell spell from the ring, attempting
to interrupt the casting of one spell identified by the ring.
You do not need to see the creature casting the spell. You
make the spell’s ability check with a +4 modifier.
If the spell targets only you, you can instead expend
2 of the ring’s charges as a reaction, allowing you to
redirect the spell at any other target you can see within
60 feet of you and within the spell’s range (including the
spellcaster). The redirected spell uses the slot level, spell
save DC, attack bonus, and spellcasting ability of the
caster. If the new target is an illegal target for the spell,
the spell fails and has no effect.
RING OF SUSTENANCE
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
This white metal band feels cool to the touch. While you
wear the ring, you don’t need to eat or drink. Additionally,
you need only sleep or trance for 2 hours during a long
rest, allowing you to perform light activity for the dura-
tion of the rest.
RING OF TELEPORTATION
Ring, rare (requires attunement)
When you aren’t looking at it, this ornately scribed plati-
num band has a habit of magically jumping from one of
your fingers to another. While you wear this ring, you can
use an action to teleport yourself and any equipment you
are wearing or carrying up to 30 feet to an unoccupied
space you can see.
Additionally, you can cast the teleport spell from the
ring. Once used, this property of the ring can’t be used
until the next dawn.

RING OF THE DARKHIDDEN
Ring, uncommon
This tarnished silver band is set with inscribed images of
closed eyes. While you wear this ring in an area of dark-
ness, you can use a bonus action to become invisible to
creatures that would normally see you with darkvision.
This invisibility lasts until the start of your next turn. You
become visible to such creatures if you are exposed to
any light, or if you attack or cast a spell.
RING OF TRUE SEEING
Ring, very rare (requires attunement)
This ring is a band of carved quartz that seems to fade
from view when stared at. While you wear the ring, you
have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks.
Additionally, you can use an action to heighten your
senses for 1 hour. While your senses are heightened,
you have truesight, you notice secret doors hidden by
magic, and you can see into the Ethereal Plane, all out to
a range of 120 feet. Once used, this property of the ring
can’t be used until the next dawn.
RING OF TRUTH
Ring, uncommon (requires attunement)
This ring is a band of clear crystal that becomes all
but invisible when worn. While you wear this ring, you
automatically succeed on any Wisdom (Insight) check
you make to determine the truth or falsehood of another
creature’s words. However, you are likewise incapable of
speaking falsely while you are attuned to the ring, even if
you are not wearing it. You cannot knowingly speak a lie
or attempt to deceive another creature with your words,
and you automatically fail all Charisma (Deception)
checks involving speech.
RING OF VELSHAROON’S BINDING
Ring, rare (requires attunement)
First created for the rulers of the Shoon Imperium, this
ring is constructed as two bands of silver joined by a thin
silver chain. Though worn on two adjacent fingers, the
rings are treated as a single magic item.
While you wear the ring, you have advantage on saving
throws against necromancy spells. You are also under
the constant effect of the protection from evil and good
spell, but against only undead creatures.
RING OF WEAKNESS
Ring, rare (attunement varies)
This cursed ring appears to be some other sort of magi-
cal ring. It has the normal functions of the ring it resem-
bles (including that ring’s attunement requirements) until
its curse manifests.
When placing this ring in a campaign, the DM selects
the type of ring it resembles by rolling on or choosing
from the following table.

Curse. This ring is cursed. The first time you use one
of the ring’s normal functions in combat or some other
stressful situation (as determined by the DM), the curse
extends to you. As long as you remain cursed, you have
disadvantage on any d20 roll made using Strength or
Constitution, including ability checks, saving throws, and
attack rolls. Additionally, each time you finish a short or
long rest, your hit point maximum is reduced by 1. This
reduction cannot be ended by any effect until the curse is
removed.
While you are cursed, you cannot remove the ring until
you are targeted by the remove curse spell or similar
magic.
RING OF WIZARDRY
Ring, rarity varies (requires attunement by a wizard)
This platinum ring is set with a rough-cut chip of gem-
stone. While you wear the ring, the number of spell slots
you have of one specific level are doubled. The type of
gem in the ring indicates which level of spell slot is dou-
bled, which in turn determines the ring’s rarity.
Gemstone Chip Spell Slots Doubled
