Headdress of the Lizard King

Wondrous Item Uncommon (this item requires attunement)

This gold and emerald green headdress channels reptilian magic to your bidding.  If you take poison damage while wearing this headdress, that damage is reduced by your Constitution modifier.     While you wear the headdress, ordinary reptiles and reptiles with a challenge rating of 1/4 or lower are indifferent toward you and will not attack you unless you threaten or harm them.  In addition, you can cast animal messenger from the headdress twice per long rest, but you can only target reptiles with it.     Cursed. This headdress is cursed, and becoming attuned to it extends that curse to you until you are targeted by the remove curse spell.  Removing the headdress fails to end the curse.  While you are cursed, your speech is altered, making your voice sound more reptilian.
