''Originally thought to be plainly cursed, this helm's enchantment is more nuanced than that. The helms themselves are often made to be imposing with their style and ornamentation. Only once donned, with death at hand, does the helm's true nature reveal itself.''

The helm grants the wearer a +2 sacred bonus on saves against all [[SRD:Death Effect|death spells]], magical death effects, [[SRD:Energy Drain, Negative Levels, and Level Loss|energy drain]], and any negative energy effects. If the wearer were slain by a death effect, they do not count as such for the purposes of spells (such as ''[[SRD:Raise Dead|raise dead]]''). This helm prevents the soul from being eaten or consumed by attacks and similar effects.

If the wearer of the helmet dies, their soul becomes encased within the helmet and remains conscious (but unable to perceive the outside world), allowing the soul to communicate telepathically with the current wearer (for good or ill). If the dead wearer is raised to life again, or if another individual dies while wearing the wardhallow helm, the current soul is evicted and the new soul takes its place. The soul is not trapped, and this state does not prevent or inhibit resurrection of any kind. The soul may decide to willingly move on to the afterlife.

Prerequisites: [[SRD:Craft Wondrous Item|Craft Wondrous Item]], ''[[SRD:Death Ward|death ward]]'', ''[[SRD:Speak with Dead|speak with dead]]''.<br/>
Cost to Create: 2,500 gp, 200 EXP, 5 days.
