The '''Mirror of Loss''' is a large mirror found in both the [[Gauntlet of Shar]] at {{Coords|-645|-735}} and the [[House of Grief]] at {{Coords|-474|-1650}}. The former is cracked and cannot be used for reflection, however the latter is functional and bestows a bonus and malus upon the user. | The '''Mirror of Loss''' is a large mirror found in both the [[Gauntlet of Shar]] at {{Coords|-645|-735}} and the [[House of Grief]] at {{Coords|-474|-1650}}.

=== Shadowheart === | |||
Shadowheart is generally denied the mirror's benefits, having already surrendered most of her memories to the mirror. As such, she is not given the chance to be cursed nor receive a boon. | |||
If she is no longer loyal to [[Shar]] she has disadvantage on the {{Ability Check|Religion}} to offer a prayer to the mirror. Passing this difficult check ultimately still yields the above narration. | |||
However, if Shadowheart becomes a Dark Justiciar, she can receive a permanent +2 bonus to any ability of her choosing without receiving a curse.{{verify}} | |||
Becoming a Dark Justiciar gives her an advantage on the {{Ability Check|Religion}} to offer a prayer to the mirror. Passing it does not seem to do anything, as is not required for her to get the bonus. | |||
