It's cute, but per the rules, Diplomacy checks only work against NPCs. And the overall mechanics of them are broken, too.
As such, it's an item that only exists to make the PC's day harder. And if you're worried about an encounter that the PCs could just talk their way past, why are you letting them talk their way past it in the first place?

Exactly. It's a DM cheater item.

Thank you Yasha, and thank you Aesop!

Methinks you have perchance missed the joke? There's a certain metaphorical source for that Sour W(h)ine...

No, I get the joke. It still doesn't make it a better Wondrous Item. And 500gp is a little overpriced, come to think of it.

*chuckles* Right back at me, then, I suppose. Touche, good sir, touche.
