Asteri, Cowl of Kruphix

World of Theros

Asteri, Cowl of Kruphix

Wondrous Item

Legendary Artifact Requires Attunement

Kruphix wears Asteri, a cowl made of Nyx. Kruphix uses
this cowl to help govern the cycle of time. He counts few
followers among the population so none have been known to
receive this power. However, should he grant this item to a
mortal it would be to aid all of Theros.

Cowl of Time

This cowl grants a +2 bonus to spell attack
rolls and to the saving throw DCs of spells you cast
(excluding spells cast from this cowl). Additionally, you have
resistance to necrotic and radiant damage.

Blessing of the Timeless

If you are a worshiper of
Kruphix, you gain all the following benefits for which you
have the required piety:

• Piety 10+. The cowl has 1 randomly determined minor
  beneficial property.


• Piety 25+. The cowl has 1 randomly determined major
  beneficial property.

If you aren’t a worshiper of Kruphix, the cowl has 2
randomly determined major detrimental property.
See “Artifacts” in chapter 7 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide
for details on randomly determined properties.

Rewind

You can use your reaction to reroll a saving throw.
You must use the new roll.

Spells

The cowl has 15 charges. While holding it, you can
use an action to expend 1 or more of its charges to cast one
of the following spells (save DC 18) from it: hold person (2
charges), blink (3 charges), haste (3 charges), slow (3
charges), hold monster (5 charges), temporal shunt (5
charges), time ravage (9 charges), time stop (9 charges). The
cowl regains 1d12+3 expended charges daily at dawn.

Destroying the Cowl

The only way to destroy the cowl is
to unravel it with Klothys's spear Nimoiras, unwinding its
destiny, in the very prison of the Titans in the Underworld.
