Sight Stealer. While wearing this ring, you can cast blindness/deafness (blindness only, spell save DC 14) from it. Instead of causing the blinded condition, you can choose to see through the eyes of the target for the duration. If you choose this option, the target doesn’t notice if it failed or succeeded on the saving throw and doesn't roll for subsequent saving throws to end the effect.
