This garment appears quite normal, but a magic
aura is detectable.
Unless the wearer has an intelligence
of 15 or higher and a wisdom of 13 or
more, he or she will be unable to cause a robe
of scintillating
colors
to function.
If intelligence and wisdom are sufficient, the
wearer can cause the garment to become a shifting pattern of incredible
hues,
color after color cascading from the upper part
of the robe to the hem in sparkling rainbows of dazzling light.
Although this effect sheds light
in a 40' diameter sphere,
it also has the powers of {hypnotizing}opponents
and causing them to be unable to attack the wearer. <note: closer in
effect to a rainbow pattern>
It requires a full round for the wearer to cause
the colors to begin "flowing" on the robe, but each round that they scintillate
and move,
any opponent not making its save vs. Magic (or
MR check, then save) will stand transfixed
for 2-5 rounds, hypnotized,
and even when this effect wears off,
additional saves must again be made in order
to successfully attack.
Furthermore, every round of continuous scintillation of the robe makes the wearer 5% more difficult to hit with missile attacks or hand-held or body weaponry (hands, fists, claws, fangs, horns, etc.) until a maximum of 25% (-5) is attained -- 5 continuous rounds of the dazzling play of hues.
After the initial round of concealment, the wearer is able to cast spells or engage in all forms of activity which do not require movement of more than 1" from his or her starting position.
In non-combat situations, the robe will simply
hypnotize creatures failing their saving throws versus magic for a period
of 2-5 turns.
