A ring of warmth was a magical ring that protected its wearer against the effects of extremely cold temperatures.[1][3][4]
Powers
Edit
A creature attune to and wearing a ring of warmth was not bothered by ambient temperatures as low as −50 ℉ (−46 ℃) with no need for cold weather gear or clothing, as a result of the additional body heat magically generated by the ring. In addition, any items carried or worn by the wearer were also immune to those low temperatures. The ring also offered considerable protection against magical cold, greatly reducing any damage taken by the wearer from a cold source.[1][3][4]
HistoryEdit
By the Year of Three Ships Sailing, 1492 DR,[note 1] a ring of warmth dating from the time of the Delzoun dwarves was located in a forgotten chamber of the Vault of Dragons in the underground of Waterdeep, together with other treasures and dwarven relics.[5]

NotesEdit
- ↑ Canon material does not provide a year for the events described in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, but Christopher Perkins answered a question via Twitter and stated the year was 1492 DR. Unless a canon source contradicts this assertion, this wiki will use 1492 DR for events related to this sourcebook and Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage (which is referenced on pages 5 and 98 of Dragon Heist).
