This cursed ring causes the wearer to lose 1 point of strength and 1
point of constitution per turn until the individual reaches 3 in each ability
area.
This loss is not noticeable until the individual actually
observes his or her weakened state due to some exertion (such as combat
or heavy lifting), for the ring will also make the wearer invisible
at will
(and also cause the rate of strength and constitution point loss to
double).
Note that when full weakness is attained the wearer will be unable
to
function in his or her class. The weakness ring can be removed only
if a remove
curse spell, followed by a dispel magic spell, is cast upon the ring.
<Ring of Berserk Strength:> There
is a 5% chance that the ring is reversed, being a ring of berserk strength.
This form gradually increases strength and constitution to 18 each
(roll percentile dice for bonus strength if the wearer i s a fighter).
Increase
is 1 point per ability per turn. However, once 18s in both abilities
are
reached, the wearer will always melee with any opponent he or she
meets, tmmediotely, regardless of circumstances. Points lost from the
ring
are restored by rest on a 1 day for 1 point basis, with 1 point of
each ability
lost being restored in 1 day of rest. Berserk strength is lost when
the ring is
removed, as are constitution points gained.
