Re: Harkahnon Ruins 7 - The King
Flint identifies the crown. Surprisingly, it is a crown of opposite alignment. Whoever wears it instantly acts permanently in the opposite alignment he currently has. It is no wonder the king was acting with such evil wickedness after being so loved by his subjects. This crown is a fake, and cursed to boot.
Other info on the crown of opposite alignment:
Only a wish can restore former alignment, and the affected individual will not make any attempt to return to the former alignment.
If magic is detected for, it radiates magic of an indeterminate sort. Once placed upon the head, however, its curse immediately takes effect, and the alignment of the wearer is radically altered—good to evil, neutral to some absolute commitment (LE, LG, CE, CG) as radically different from the former alignment as possible. Alteration in alignment is mental and, once effected, is desired by the individual changed by the magic.
