Pewter Ring of Halfling-Sense (any)

Adventuring Gear +1 bonus to strength; +2 to charisma Very Rare

This is an unadorned pewter ring, sporting no markings or gems. The ring itself has the appearance of having been worn for many years, as it bears scratches and nicks around its entire perimeter. If detected for, the ring will indicate a small magical enchantment. Only a halfling druid may be able to correctly identify the ring and its properties. It is legendary among the halfling races, having been in the property of a prominent halfling family for many years.   The last known owner, Marigold Hedgerow, was an eccentric yet kindly widow when she suddenly went missing. It was assumed she left on one of her long walks in the country, and somewhere along the way fell victim to a wild animal, for her body was never found.   The properties of the ring depend on the race of the character. If a halfling wears the ring, he/she will gain a +1 bonus to strength and a +2 to charisma. They will also gain the ability to change pure water to berry wine, and cast an animal friendship spell (as the first level druid spell), each once per day.   f the character is a non-halfling, he/she will gain a +1 bonus to charisma. They will also gain the ability to change pure water to berry wine, and cast an animal friendship spell (as the first level druid spell), each once per day. Non-halfling characters will also undergo a permanent and irreversible change.   Within one week of wearing the ring, if the ring is worn for more than 24 hours continuously, the character will begin to take on one of the familiar physical characteristics of the halfling; that is, their feet will grow quite large, grow a furry coat, and develop leathery soles. Within a week, the character will no longer be able to wear the normal shoes of their race as their feet will have effectively doubled in size. The feet will provide the characters with the same protection as low soft boots. During the period of this transformation, the character will be unable to walk under their own power due to excruciating pain. A remove curse spell will return the feet to normal size
