Deadman’s Hand

Wondrous item, unique

This mummified hand clutches four playing cards; two black aces and two black eights. A creature that handles the item becomes instantly attuned to it, and loses attunement to a random item if no free attunement slots are available.

While you are attuned to the deadman’s hand, you gain no benefit or penalty from it.

If you lose the deadman’s hand or become unattuned to it, you suffer a –2 penalty on death saving throws until you become attuned to the magical item again, or through a remove curse spell.
