• Abyssal Dominion - Mind-Breaking Presence: Projects an aura of supernatural dread, striking terror into all who stand before Prazutis. Prolonged exposure causes hallucinations, mental fractures, and despair.
• The Black Sight - Piercing the Veil of Reality: Enhances precognition, allowing Prazutis to perceive through illusions, cloaking, and possible weak points in an opponent's mind or soul.
• The Maw of the Abyss - Voice of the Void: Prazutis' voice becomes layered with abyssal echoes, hypnotic distortions, and mind-breaking whispers, making it difficult to resist his will.
• The Helm of the Reaper - Death's Whisper: Absorbs the lingering screams of the slain, replaying their voices to torment the living or manipulate their emotions.
• Sorcerer's Crown - Amplification of Sith Sorcery: The helm acts as a Sith Sorcery conduit, amplifying curses, rituals, and Dark Side invocations through inscribed runes.
• Dark Side Conduit - Absorption & Redirection of Power: Absorbs residual Dark Side energy in battle, sustaining and enhancing Prazutis' presence. Can reflect or nullify weaker Force-based attacks.
• Indomitable Fortress - Unbreakable Defense: Forged from Zîrkaris, the helm is extremely durable, shifting slightly to absorb kinetic force.
• Blackened Hunger - The Devouring Mask: The helm passively feeds on fear and suffering, strengthening Prazutis the more terror surrounds him.

• The Abyss Walks: The helm's presence alone can break enemy morale, causing hallucinations and warping reality for the weak-willed.
• A Sorcerer's Crown: The helmet serves as a direct conduit for Sith Sorcery, amplifying all rituals, maledictions, and battle invocations.
• A Fortress for the Mind: Protects against mental intrusion, preventing Force wielders from further penetrating Prazutis' thoughts or influencing his will, beyond his natural shielding.
• Resilience of the Abyss: The durable Zîrkaris ensures the helm is highly resistant against being broken, while its layered alchemy resists even lightsaber strikes.
• Bound to the Dark Lord: No one else can wear the helm; it is tied to Prazutis' essence, rejecting all others with violent force.

• Beacon of Darkness: The helm is a beacon of Sith malevolence in the Force; it is impossible to hide from Jedi Seers and other Force-sensitive trackers.
• Power Requires Suffering: The helm thrives in conflict, feeding off fear and pain. If removed from battle and left unstimulated, its potency wanes.
• Overwhelming Light Side Purification: A concentrated, prolonged Jedi purification ritual could weaken the helm's Dark Side abilities, though not destroy them outright.
• Sonic Vulnerability: While resistant, high-powered sonic disruptors or concentrated sonic attacks could damage its integrity momentarily.
• Massive Weight: Due to its reinforced abyssal metal, the helm is extremely heavy, restricting who could even attempt to wear it.
• Partial Nullification Resistance: While the Zîrkaris core actively resists Force suppression, certain effects tied to Sith sorcery, such as illusions, whispers, and aura projection, may be dulled or weakened in strong nullification fields (e.g., Ysalamiri zones or intense voidstone proximity). The helm retains its physical resilience and basic protections, but its supernatural effects may become muted.

"When you look into the abyss, know that it is already looking back at you."

The Abyssal Crown, Xûl-Karzaan, is no mere helmet, it is a monument to Sith supremacy, a war helm forged in the depths of Malsheem, a relic that embodies absolute dominion, terror, and the will of the Shadow Hand. It is not worn; it is bound.

Forged by Darth Prazutis himself, the crafting of this war helm was an ordeal of ritualistic agony and sacrifice. In the blackened forges of Malsheem, Prazutis used his own blood, will, and soul-binding sorcery to weave Zîrkaris, a metal infused with an abyssal hunger. The helm was quenched in the suffering of Jedi captives, their fear and agony etched into its foundation. The Voidshards embedded within pulse with reality-warping power, disrupting enemy perceptions and twisting their senses.

Atop its crown, engraved in pulsating Sith runes, are words of command, of dominion, of destruction. These runes are no mere markings; they act as spell anchors, amplifying Prazutis' dark rituals, allowing him to curse his enemies, manipulate shadows, and invoke sorceries beyond mortal comprehension. But the helm is more than a sorcerer's tool, it is a fortress, an executioner's mask, a devouring abyss. Those who gaze upon it too long feel it staring back, reaching into their minds, tearing into their will. Those who hear Prazutis speak through it feel the weight of oblivion, his voice a symphony of abyssal echoes and whispers from the void. No enemy can stand before Xûl-Karzaan without feeling the abyss clawing at their soul. No mind can listen to its whispers and remain unbroken. No Jedi can face it and walk away unchanged.

It is the helm of the Reaper, the voice of the abyss, the crown of absolute darkness.

Cool sub again. I'd like to ask you to add to the weaknesses what happens with the silk under Force suppression/nullification effects.
