Necklace of Shadows

Sometimes, heirlooms such as this necklace are forgotten in dark and cursed places of the world, or gain a supernatural cursed nature when left inside tombs of people that suffered in their lives and their spirits haunt their grave. Sometimes the fell energies of the Shadow Plane corrupt such items.

Wondrous Item (Rare)

Requires Attunement

You have resistance to necrotic and radiant damage. As an action, you can summon a set of floating, spectral shadow fangs out of thin air within 15 ft. of you that last for 1d6 rounds + your Charisma modifier (a negative score doesn't reduce the rounds). When you summon the shadow fangs, you can make a melee attack with them against a creature within 5 feet of the fangs, using your Charisma modifier. On a hit, the target takes necrotic damage equal to 1d8 + your Charisma modifier. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the fangs up to 15 ft. and repeat the attack against a creature within 5 feet of the fangs. You can use this ability once per short or long rest.

Curse. This necklace is cursed, and becoming attuned to it extends the curse to you. As long as you remain cursed, you are unwilling to part with the necklace, keeping it within reach at all times. While you are cursed you gain the following Indefinite Madness that cannot be cured except if you somehow remove the curse: You suffer extreme paranoia that leaves your mind addled, clouds your judgement and decision making and further leaving your mind easy to be toyed with. You have disadvantage on Wisdom and Charisma checks and Wisdom and Charisma Saving Throws.
