Usage worn ring; Bulk L

Forged from the imposing scale of a Green Dragon, this claw-shaped ring boasts a lethal allure. The tip of the claw is meticulously sharpened, and upon donning the ring, the claws gracefully arch over the fingertip, bestowing upon the wearer the essence of the Green Dragon's potent virulence.

Activate [two-actions] Interact; You channel the ring's poison energy while touching a creature within reach. The creature makes a basic DC 41 Fortitude save, If fails, the target suffers 3d8 poison damage, and 2 persistent poison damage.

Touch of Death. Activate [reaction] Trigger cause Poison damage using the Rotted Needle Frequency Once per day; You release a drop of a potent venom from within the Green Dragon’s scale. If the target has 50 Hit Points or fewer, it dies instantly; otherwise, it drops to 0 Hit Points and becomes dying 1, or increases its dying condition by 1 if it's already dying. The victim's skin darkens to a deep shade of green in mere moments, accompanied by the emergence of a repugnant, rotting odor that fills the air. Simultaneously, the veins become grotesquely pronounced, turning dark, necrotic green as life is viciously drained from the body, decaying at an unnaturally accelerated rate and leaving behind a ghastly testament to the venom's devastating potency.
