The Liar represents obsession or treacherous love. As long as you have The Liar invested, it grants you a +2 item bonus to Deception checks to Lie. This increases to a +3 item bonus if you're at least 17th level. If the implausibility of your lies prompts a circumstance penalty to your Deception checks or an increase to your Deception DC, reduce that penalty or increase by half.

Activate ◆◆ envision, Interact

Frequency once per day


Effect You touch a weapon and instill faithlessness within it. The weapon gains the backbiting curse. The curse lasts until you use this activation again. If you're at least 17th level, you can instead use this activation on a weapon within 30 feet. If the weapon is carried by a creature, it can resist the effect with a successful will save against your class DC or spell DC.

Traits

Artifact

Items with this trait are artifacts. These magic items can't be crafted by normal means, and they can't be damaged by normal means. Artifacts are always rare or unique.

Harrow (court)

This item is related to the Harrow, a Varisian method of fortune-telling using a 54-card deck. Harrow cards are powerful magical artifacts tied to fate and destiny.

Invested

A character can invest only 10 magical items that have the invested trait. None of the magical effects of the item apply if the character hasn't invested it, nor can it be activated, though the character still gains any normal benefits from wearing the physical item (like a hat keeping rain off their head).

Magical

Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
