Medal of Gallantry

This silver brooch is shaped like the sun. A golden cabochon adorns the center.

A medal of gallantry grants you a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks but imposes a –⁠2 penalty on Bluff checks. This is a continuous effect and requires no activation.

Three times per day, you can activate the medal to use sanctuary on yourself. If you attack while protected by this effect, you take a –⁠1 morale penalty on that attack and all subsequent attacks for 1 hour afterward.

Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, sanctuary.

Cost to Create: 675 gp, 54 XP, 2 days.
