An ancient artefact of Okawaru, these woolen robes were lost when a former champion failed a duel. Its enchantments increase in power when the wearer emerges victorious from threatening combat, but resorting to the use of scrolls or potions for assistance causes them to fade away again.

the toga "Victory"

+0 robe

Clarity
Grants +1 AC, Slay, and Int after killing a dangerous monster. Using a scroll or potion with hostile enemies in LOS will reset the bonuses.

Mechanics

When the wearer kills a threatening monster, the toga has a chance to gain +1 AC, +1 Slay, and +1 Int, up to +7. Killing a "tough" monster has a 25% chance to improve the bonuses, and killing a "nasty" monster always increases the enchantments.

When the wearer uses a scroll or a potion with a hostile monster in sight, its bonuses reset to +0. Unequipping it also resets its bonuses to +0.

Desirability

A strong robe, assuming you can level it up early. Even for a melee character, a +7 robe with +7 slay is nothing to scoff at. You can use items like wands and curare darts to take out tough monsters. Casters with nothing better than a mundane robe might as well wear Victory. However, being alive (by using your consumables) is much better than being dead with a +7 toga.

This artefact is more likely to spawn in the early game, where it is more likely to be useful.
