I came across this item recently. It says:
Mirror of Guarding Reflections
Aura moderate illusion; CL 7th; Weight 4 lbs.
Slot none; Price 7,000 gp
DESCRIPTION
Reflections visible in this palm-sized hand mirror always seem ghostly and insubstantial. When a creature holding the mirror is targeted by an attack, he can spend an immediate action to summon his reflection from the glass to interpose itself between him and the blow. The reflection functions as an image produced by the spell mirror image. If the image is struck by the attack, it shatters with a resounding crash. The creature that destroyed the image is subject to bad luck; the next time it makes an attack roll or saving throw, it must roll twice and take the worse result. If the attack does not strike the image, the image fades away at the start of the mirror bearer's next turn. The mirror can be used three times per day.
CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
Craft Wondrous Item, mirror image; Cost 3,500 gp
Now my question is, does the PC actually have to be holding the mirror, or just have it on his person to be able to use it? I know in the description it says that "when a creature holding the mirror is targeted..." but I don't know if it would be literal or just meant by having it in their possession.
