The Rite of the Sightless Eye inscribes an incredibly intricate series of magical runes on a creature's iris. The ritual is quite dangerous, and the slightest mistake can ruin the magic, as well as the medium on which it is inscribed. However, many judge the reward as being worth the potential risk. Some powerful magic-users have been known to perform this ritual on some of their most useful and valuable servants, allowing them increible power to discern foes hidden by magical auras.
The runes glow when revealed, blinding the user when that eye is opened. For this reason, many wear a leather patch or crystal monocle to hide the eye, which takes a lot of adjustment. However, when the eye is in use, it allows the user to view and focus in on magical auras, granting incredible acuity. Rite of the Sightless Eye Rare magical ritual, permanent (requires attunement) The user is blinded in one eye, permanently taking disadvantage on any sight-based Wisdom (Perception) checks, and reducing the range of any ranged attacks to two-thirds, rounding down to the nearest 5 feet. When activated, this grants the user Truesight to a range of 30 feet, and activates Detect magic. Both of these effects require concentration to use.
