Upon gaining the item, you gain a set number shadow points nd some more shadow points if the character fails a flat DC 15 roll. If your number of shadow points is higher than your Wis score, you become Miserable (dis. on all attack and social checks). The first time you fail a check while Miserable, you suffer a bout of madness, more or less the effect of Confusion (see Boromir at then end of Fellowship). Once you suffered X bout of madness you become an NPC (4 in AiME, but you could decide on another number, or just skip the bout of madness and say the character goes evil after the shadow point score goes higher than the PC's Wis score. Hope this may help with your search</blockquote>
