Red Cap

Rare Helmet – 1 Head Slot – Cursed

Special Effect 1: When you start the turn within 5 feet of a Bleeding creature, you can regain 1d8 Posture

Special Effect 2: Once per Short or Long rest, you can make 1 Attack against a creature that is Bleeding as a Free Action.

Curse: You cannot end the helmet’s attunement, and the helmet always returns to you, either by teleporting or simply appearing by coincidence. Over time, you begin to transform into a Redcap. 

After one week, you become the Fey type in addition to the creature type of your race. After two weeks, your size becomes Small sized. After three weeks, you should start using the Redcap monster sheet instead of your own, though you still have control of your character. By the fourth week, your character’s memories fade entirely, and you fully become a regular Redcap, losing control over your character forever. 

The only way to break the curse is to clean the blood from this cap, at which point it turns into a normal white cap. However, your character becomes hostile and will automatically attack any creature that tries to clean the cap. 

Your character cannot clean the cap on its own.
