A phylactery of faithfulness was a useful item for divine spellcasters, in that it enabled the wearer to foresee how their actions would affect their connection to their deity.[1]
Appearance
A phylactery of faithfulness was a small black box containing religious scripture, tied around the forehead by a leather cord. There was no way to determine precisely what function it performed until it was worn.[1]
Creation
Despite their usefulness, phylacteries of faithfulness were among the simplest and cheapest magic items to manufacture, available to virtually any divine magic spellcaster who could create wondrous items. To create a phylactery of faithfulness, the creator must cast detect evil, detect good, detect law, and detect chaos during the process.[1]
Activation
If the wearer of a phylactery of faithfulness took a moment to contemplate an action or item that may adversely affect his or her alignment and/or standing with their deity, he or she became fully aware of the consequences before performing the action.[1]
