Ring of Names
Added 2022-12-06 16:27:50 +0000 UTCRing, common
A thin strip of parchment lines the inside of this brass signet ring. When you shake hands with a humanoid, you can make a Wisdom (Insight) check contested by the target's Charisma (Deception) check. On a success, the target's name becomes written on the ring's parchment, which you magically learn. If the creature has multiple names or is secretive about its true identity, the written name is the one that it would be willing to share with a casual acquaintance. Regardless, a creature is unaware of this effect.
Once a name has been written on the parchment, this property of the ring can’t be used again until the next dawn, at which time the name disappears from the ring's parchment.
For the lords and ladies tired of forgetting their subjects' names. Again.

A reminder that the name you get is the one it's willing to share! It doesn't betray someone who is unwilling to share it.
