Anathema Spell (Feat) item
Bolstering Spell (Feat) item

hat of disguise = same as it ever was? no, old Hat was no good
hat = disguise self upgrading to adjustable disguise. also has a mirror image ability upgrading to deadly image at the top end, scale appropriately deadly image special effect is it makes attacks...hrrrrm.  apparition dirus mechanics instead?  rename it as Assassins Hat? Chapeau? hrrrm.

In that case, the bonus granted could get pretty high without actually breaking our system, since it can only be used to reduce penalties, and never reduce a penalty above 0.
