 Any character can keep this ring around as a swapout, in case you want to evoke invisibility. Due to the [[drain]] this ability causes (even if you fail), it is recommended to have good [[Evocations]] before evoking it.

 Followers of [[Yredelemnul]] and [[Dithmenos]] don't suffer from the umbra's accuracy penalty (though followers of Dithmenos generate their own umbra that eventually becomes larger than the ring's at higher piety levels).
