Default Re: New Idea for Magic Item (Huge Advantage, Huge Disadvantage)

Helmet Slot
Mind Prison

A commander wears this helmet and gets the status "Mindless". Now, I know this seems too cheap, so the helmet also causes a commander to become "FeebleMinded". Good for those R'lyeh armies.(CURSED)

That way, you cannot protect your mages. It is only good for regular commanders and requires 5 astral gems and is a level 6 construct.

Another solution is that the helmet prevents any spellcasting or rituals but the mage becomes mindless without having to become feebleminded. That way it would have a wider use. (NOT CURSED)
I'm ok with the idea of a mind protecting helmet, but why should it be so penalizing ? Magic armor for example does not force you to speed 1 and def 0 ..
