Pilgrim's Unwavering Cincture

Wondrous Item, Rare, Requires Attunement by a creature of lawful alignment

Our ancestors were stronger than us.  They understood the glorious burden of Duty.  Not even death would keep them from discharging their obligations.  We are not what they once were.  We are weak, and we fail in our service to Law and Duty.  This is true, but it must not always be true.  We can be what the Great Ones have always believed us to be.  We can uphold our Obligations.  We can march into the maw of the Black Undertide without fear or regret.  We can face inevitable death with a smile on our face and our heads held high, for we will not relent, and we will never be broken!

-- Final speech of Khimra Bearhide, last King of Ghurud-Hazal

While wearing this belt, your walking speed can never be reduced below its normal value unless it would be reduced to zero.

If your hit points are ever reduced to zero, you remain conscious and able to act for three rounds, provided you move at least ten feet during each of your turns.  If you take additional damage, or fail to move ten feet during your turn, you are immediately incapacitated.  This ability may only be used once per long rest.

Any creature of non-lawful alignment who attempts to wear this belt will find their walking speed reduced to five feet, as if the belt weighed as much as their maximum carrying capacity.
