Circlet of Barbed Vision

The Circlet of Barbed Vision is one of the Vestiges of Divergence. Upon wearing this circlet of gnarled onyx, black barbs dig into the wearer's head, imparting power as it twists the wearer's appearance to amuse the Spider Queen. It has not yet been confirmed to have appeared on Critical Role.

Dormant State

 * While wearing this circlet, the wearer's Charisma score decreases by 2. They also have advantage on initiative rolls.
 * When making an attack roll, the wearer can use their reaction to gain a +5 bonus to the roll. They make this choice after they see the roll, but before the DM says whether the attack hits or misses. The wearer cannot use this ability again until they finish a short or long rest.

Awakened State

 * The wearer gains resistance to poison damage and immunity to the poisoned condition.
 * The ability to gain a bonus to an attack roll can be used twice between rests.

Exalted State

 * The wearer gains immunity to poison damage and the poisoned condition.
 * The wearer can see invisible creatures and objects.
 * The ability to gain a bonus to an attack roll can be used three times between rests.

Trivia

 * An artifact of similar appearance to the Circlet of Barbed Vision was robbed from the Blightstar in 842 PD. That item actively repulsed characters of good alignment who got too close, causing them to vomit black ichor.
