This helm’s face is a solid slab of iron, apparently allowing its wearer no way to see out.
Despite its appearance and name, a blindhelm doesn’t restrict your vision in any way. More important, it grants you blindsense out to 5 feet and provides you with a +5 competence bonus on saves against gaze attacks.
Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, true seeing.
Cost to Create: 7,500 gp, 600 XP, 15 days.
