Wormstone's BrimWondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)
To attune to this hat, you must spend the duration of the attunement period wearing the hat, during which its spores spread across your body. At the end of the attunement period, you must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw, and do so with advantage if you are proficient in Nature. On a success, you attune to the hat. On a failure, you take 4d8 necrotic damage and the attunement is interrupted and you must try again.
While you wear this hat, you don't need to eat or drink if you spend at least 1 hour each day on earth or soil, as the spores provide you with nutrients. You also gain resistance to necrotic damage. The hat has 5 charges for the following properties and regains 1d4 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn.
Absorption. Whenever you take necrotic damage, you can expend 1 charge as a reaction to regain 2d8 hit points.
Spore Puppet. As a bonus action, you can expend 2 charges to resurrect a humanoid corpse within 30 feet of you as a zombie. In initiative, it takes its turn immediately after yours and follows your mental commands. You lose control over it after 1 minute or if it is ever more than 30 feet away from you, after which it mindlessly pursues the creature closest to it.
