A Sight Obscuring Item


Advice


Hey guys. So, I wanted to make a sort of twist on the blind swordsman, a combat pragmatist who has learned to fight without his sight (blind fight, and all the blinded blade style feats), but deprives his enemies of sight to put them at a huge disadvantage. I'd prefer to keep him human, and I'd prefer an item that would obscure darkvision as well. Consistency is key, so if its a consumable, it needs to be pretty cheap. Assume level 12, with mostly levels in fighter to accomodate all the feats.

So, on a side note is this character an NPC or yours?


NPC for now, though if it was feasible to do constantly, I wouldn't mind playing it. Of course, depriving line of sight on casters and penalties on my fellow party members makes him a niche pick at best.

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/e-g/fan-o f-autumn is perfect flavor wise, and stops many people around that level to be able to see through fog.

Price 6,000 gp; Slot none; CL 3rd; Weight 1 lb.; Aura faint illusion

This delicate fan is made of dried leaves and thin twigs.

Three times per day as a standard action, the wielder can wave the fan to summon forth a 30-foot cone of swirling red and gold leaves that lasts for 3 rounds. This area acts as obscuring mist, except for the duration and the fact it is composed of leaves rather than fog (thus, creatures able to see through mist and fog can't see through the fan of autumn's concealment). As long as the wielder has the fan in her hand, the leaves don't obscure her vision.


Eversmoking Bottle is exactly what I would advise, just like Brew Bird. But there are some other options I could add. I had a Half-Orc character with the Keen Scent and Blindfighting feats who carried around an Eversmoking Bottle.

Pyrotechnics, the spell that the EB is based on. It's only a level 2 Spell, so the Wand should be afforablish. Also, Wand of Obsuring Mist.

Horn of Fog.
