[Relics from the East] Godspeaker kimono (Patreon)
Content
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement)
The counterpart to the Oniryoshi clan, the Kamisayaki clan guard the angelic relic that inhibits celestials’ passage into the material plane. The Kamisayaki see violence against celestials as a last resort and instead seek to deceive and manipulate them. Their clothing is made from silk of the ether moth, a creature that blinks into the material plane only to lay its eggs, and flits out of the material plane the moment it emerges from its cocoon.
While wearing this kimono you can, as a bonus action, speak its command words – ‘pure’ or ‘shimmer’ – to cause the ‘Innocence’ or ‘Blink’ properties to activate, respectively.
Innocence. Your aura becomes saturated with celestial energy, manifesting as an almost-visible golden nimbus. You have advantage on Charisma (Deception) checks for the next 10 minutes. For the duration, your thoughts are unreadable through magical means and any feature that allows a creature to hear lies, such as a solar’s Divine Awareness, does not function for words you speak. Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until the following dawn.
Blink. Your aura implodes, carrying you to the ethereal plane. At the start of your next turn, you return to an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of the space you vanished from. While on the Ethereal Plane, you can see and hear the plane you originated from, which is cast in shades of gray, and you can't see anything there more than 60 feet away. You can only affect and be affected by other creatures on the Ethereal Plane. Creatures that aren't there can't perceive you or interact with you, unless they have the ability to do so.
After you use this feature, roll a d6. On a 1 or 2, you can’t use it again until the following dawn.
