[The Low] Xorn Ring (Patreon)
Content
Wondrous item, rare
Using magic extracted from xorn teeth, this gruesome, fleshy ring grants its wearer the ability to glide through earth as well as conferring a supernatural treasure-finding sense. The teeth aren’t just for show; they can chew through precious metals as easily a xorn itself.
When found, this ring has 1d3 + 3 charges. When the last charge is expended the fleshy parts of the ring desiccate and turn to dust, causing the teeth to fall to the ground.
Cursed. This item is cursed. When you don this ring it curses you until you are targeted by a remove curse spell or similar magic, or until all charges are expended. As long as you remain cursed, you are unwilling to part with the ring, keeping it on your finger at all times. You have an irresistible compulsion to feed all your treasure to the ring whenever you rest and are not unconscious. The ring can eat 1 nonmagical coin or gemstone per minute.
Earth Glide. As an action, you can speak the ring’s command word and expend 1 charge to grant you a burrowing speed of 20 feet for the next minute. You can burrow through nonmagical, unworked earth and stone and you don’t disturb the material you move through while under the effect of Earth Glide.
Treasure Sense. As a bonus action, you can speak the ring’s second command word and expend 1 charge to enhance your sense of smell for the next 10 minutes. For the duration, you can pinpoint, by scent, the location of precious metals and stones, such as coins and gems, within 60 feet of you.

Remove the self-destruction effect when the last charge is expended.
