This is an optional file, that adds new dialogue lines if you have the ring equipped. This is mainly for roleplay, to give the ring a purpose.
Added Lines:
Talking to Jaheira at Last Light Inn: It's trying to change me, to win me over. But with this ring, I'm shielded from its temptations.
Installation:
Install using BG3MM or Vortex

✅ Pros

⚠️ Cons
- Very niche—only affects players who want to disable Illithid powers, which is a small subset.

- Last updated in March 2024—could be outdated if you're on a newer patch.

💡 Beginner Tips

- Check the mod's page for any updates if you're on the latest patch, since it hasn't been updated in a while.
