Family: Cloak of Displacement

A Cloak of Displacement is a garment that is of striking appearance while it is standing still, but which rapidly seems to fade and blur as the wearer moves around. The more the wearer moves, the more this effect grows, until not only the cloak itself, but the wearer as well become an indistinct blur of moving forms.

The effect is disconcerting, to say the least, and can cause attackers to hesitate, lose their focus, or simply startle such that their attacks miss the mark.

For the wearer of such a cloak, it provides unreliable but potent defense, and the more powerful the cloak becomes, the more powerful the effect. At the very upper ends of power, the fading and blurring become so strong that the wearer actually gains the ability to step through space without passing through it, which is massively useful.

As such, these cloaks are highly prized for some cautious adventurers.

Up to nine times per day, during one move you take using a move action or by taking multiple 5-foot steps, or by using any other ability to displace away from your starting position, if the wearer moves at least 15 feet from their starting point each round, they become partially concealed, meaning enemies automatically miss them on a natural die roll of 6 or less on a d20, regardless of whether the total would normally hit or not. The wearer gains the benefit of Partial Concealment against any attacks of opportunity or any other attacks they may suffer during their movement, and they may use the Partial Concealment to initiate a Stealth stance, if they desire (even though that normally requires Total Concealment, or Total Cover).

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.
