Chrysanthemum Bouquet

Plant, Uncommon, Cursed, Essence 20

Appearing at first as a delicate white silk lace handkerchief bearing a finely embroidered pattern of golden chrysanthemums, this item gives off a haunting fragrance and a promise to preserve your life as long as the flowers bloom.

After receiving your Essence, it will transform into a fragrant, overflowing bouquet of freshly cut chrysanthemums with max HP equal to yours, which will increase along with increases to your max HP over time. You must provide the bouquet with fresh water and fertilizer worth 1 sc daily. Without water and nutrients, the bouquet will suffer a permanent -5 to its max HP per day unnourished.

As long as you can keep the flowers alive, you can spend 1 AP to receive +2 to AR for five rounds (this cannot stack with itself).

The bouquet can draw damage that you sustain into itself. When you start your turn with 0 HP, you may regain 1 HP by causing the bouquet to take 2d6 damage.

Tending the flowers carefully will allow them to recover 2 HP per day. Healing spells do not work on the bouquet. The bouquet will defend you until its HP reaches 0, and it becomes a fragile memory of its once-fresh brilliance. Then, the faded bouquet will revert to the form of a fine silk handkerchief and remains bonded with your Essence in perpetuity.
