Item: Cursed Dreamstone

A dreamstone can become cursed if left exposed to creatures that corrupt sleep, generate nightmares, or otherwise prey on sleeping or dreaming victims via supernatural methods. A cursed dreamstone seems to function as a normal dreamstone until the bearer falls asleep or is forced to attempt a saving throw against a sleep effect. At this point, the person carrying the cursed dreamstone must attempt a DC 26 Will save to resist the curse's effects.

---

Critical Success The character resists the curse entirely and experiences a vivid dream while sleeping that warns them of the nature of the cursed dreamstone.

Success The character resists the curse.

Failure As long as the cursed character possesses the stone, they are fatigued whenever they wake from sleep, whether natural or magically induced, and they take a -2 item penalty to all saving throws against sleep effects instead of gaining the normal bonus from a dreamstone.

Critical Failure As failure, and whenever the bearer attempts a saving throw against a sleep effect, they get the outcome that is one degree worse than the result of their saving throw.
