[QUOTE="Jack Simth, post: 2622147, member: 29252"] The ring of the Countess van Krankzinnigheid This ring was crafted by a dragon who wanted to run his own country. There was a problem, however; he couldn't simply replace the king (too many people around who knew him very, very well), he couldn't make his Polymorph permanent, and he couldn't quite be sure that a Polymorph he cast would result in exactly the same form every single time. However, the country he wanted had a King who was looking for a wife.... So he crafted this ring. While worn, it reshapes the wearer into a particular human countenence; a very beautiful woman, whom the dragon built a false identity around - that of the Countess van Krankzinnigheid. The plan was insanity: to marry the king, bear him an heir, then kill the king and rule as regent... while carefully and continuously altering the mind of the heir so that, when he was finally grown, the new king would be little more than a puppet for his dear mother. As a side effects of forcing the physical form, the ring halts the aging process while it is worn, as well as granting double the normal healing rates for hit points and ability damage. Market Price: Unique; priceless, to the right individual; 56,000 gp, nominal market price Forging: Forge Ring, Polymorph, 28,000 gp, 2240 xp [/QUOTE]
