A Ring of Devotion is the product of utter faith in your Deity, trusting wholly in that Higher Power, and opening your very Self to their ministrations. When worn, a Ring of Devotion seems to do absolutely nothing when seen from the 'outside'. It does not protect the wearer, or give them dominion over others, or produce a magical shield, allow magical movement through space or the ability to vanish from sight. To the outside observer, it looks like a useless magical bauble, with no tangible effect at all.

Yet, despite this utter lack of visible effect, a Ring of Devotion is usually the most prized possession of any serious Divine caster. The magics of the Ring act to strengthen the wearers faith and resolve to an incredible degree. This effect on the wearer is subtle but incredibly profound, and equally valuable. Rings of Devotion come in more than a dozen variations, and each of them is massively useful, although the mightier (and much more expensive) versions require the wearer to be a great hero before they have any effects.

A Ring of Devotion only affects a wearer if that wearer can cast spells of a Divine nature. Where this ability to cast spells comes from does not matter. The Divine spell slots can be a class feature, granted by a high Caster ability score, sourced from an item, feat, talent, or any other ability. If the wearer of a Ring of Devotion has the ability to cast Divine Spells and has Divine Spell Slots, then the number of those spell slots, assuming the Ring can affect those levels, is doubled.

Being able to cast twice as many Divine spells per day, even for a limited number of spell slot levels, is such a massive boon that many faith-based spell casters will move Heaven and Earth to gain this boon. As a result, Rings of Devotion, despite their apparent lack of any tangible effect at all, are highly prized indeed.

A Reverent Ring of Devotion doubles the number of first and second level Divine spell slots the wearer has. The wearer can cast twice as many first and second level Divine spells per day as they usually can.

The owner of this magic item must wear it continuously for 24 hours to attune it to their aura, and until that time has passed, it provides no benefits to the wearer.
