Shadowgaze Eyes

gemstone, rare

The Shadowgaze Eyes resemble polished obsidian spheres, their surface marbled with faint silver streaks. When held to the light, they reveal intricate patterns reminiscent of spiderwebs.

Obsidian Eyes

When you insert the Shadowgaze Eyes, your existing eyeballs undergo a mysterious transformation. They merge seamlessly with the obsidian spheres, becoming one with the magical artifact. Once merged, the Shadowgaze Eyes cannot be separated from your now pitch black eyeballs.

Enhanced Darkvision

When inserted into your own eye sockets, the Shadowgaze Eyes grant you exceptional darkvision. You can now see in complete darkness as if it were dim light, with a range of 30 feet. This range increases to 120 feet if you attune to the Shadowgaze Eyes.
If you already have darkvision, the Shadowgaze Eyes extend the range of your darkvision by the same amount.

Shadow Veil

While attuned to the Shadowgaze Eyes, you can use an action to cast centered on yourself as shadows pour forth from your eyes, enveloping the area in an inky veil. The darkness spreads out in a 15-foot radius, following you as you move. Within this magical darkness, you can see as if it were bright light.

Lore

In the perilous depths of the Underdark, a human named Garrick found himself hopelessly lost. The darkness was oppressive, a tangible force that seemed to swallow both hope and light. It was in this dire moment that Garrick stumbled upon the Shadowgaze Eyes, two obsidian orbs that promised salvation from the eternal night.

With a mixture of desperation and awe, Garrick placed the orbs into his eye sockets. A searing pain gave way to a sudden, profound clarity. The darkness receded, revealing the intricate tapestry of the Underdark in shades of gray and silver. The Shadowgaze Eyes had not only granted him sight but had also become a part of him, a gift that pierced the veil of perpetual night.
Garrick’s newfound vision allowed him to navigate the treacherous caverns, avoiding the many dangers that lurked in the shadows. He discovered hidden paths and secret chambers, his eyes attuned to the subtlest of movements. The Shadowgaze Eyes became his most trusted allies, guiding him through the labyrinthine world beneath the surface.
Years passed, and Garrick’s legend grew among the denizens of the Underdark. He was no longer a mere survivor; he was a wanderer, a seeker of truths hidden in the dark. His journey eventually led him to the surface, where the Shadowgaze Eyes continued to serve him, revealing secrets that the light of day could never uncover.
