Binding Ring (3.5e Equipment)

Binding Ring
The master ring is an ordinary looking ring.

Binding Rings are used by people to keep control others. The master wears the master ring while up to 10 slave rings can be attuned to a master ring. Slave rings are cursed and cannot be removed unless a remove curse or 20th level or above is cast, or similar curse-removing spells.

The master ring has additional functions; It has a Dominate Person Spell upon it, that forces the slave to act as told by the master. (No Saving Throw)

There's the classical Ring/Collar combination that simply forces the slave to act as directed by the Master.

A close cousin to the classic form is the double ring set that unnoticed by the slave, alters their behavior to fit the Masters spoken wishes. Mostly though it will alter their behavior without them noticing to be a loyal slave that does as told.

Then the 'Binding Desire' which alters the slaves very mindset to wish to please the Master. This doesn't inspired actual dedication to the wearer, simply the one who is currently wearing the ring. This item is very popular in the seedier, more unsavory brothels. Contains a Charm Spell.

The Binding of Pain is a set in which the Master can inflict pain at will, whether or not the slave has disobeyed. If the slave does disobey they are subjected to crippling pain until they make a conscious decision to obey the order and make an effort despite the pain to complete the order, the closer they come to completing the order the greater the pain will be reduced. 2d8, No Save.

These are the most popular forms of the Binding Rings in circulation at the time, but there are innumerable variations that exist in almost every shape and form imaginable.

The master ring can be removed and is not cursed.
