Loukas Notaras’ Turban

Origin
Loukas Notaras was the last Megas Doux (commander-in-chief) of the Byzantine Empire, as it was expanded under the late Palaiologid emperors and functioned as an unofficial Prime Minister. He was thought to have been against the Union of Churches under the Florentine council because of his famous phrase "I would rather see a Turkish turban in the midst of the City (i.e., Constantinople) than the Latin mitre". Present during the 1453 Siege of Constantinople, Notaras and his family were captured by the Turks and executed; some stories say Notaras refused to give his son Mehmed the Conqueror, while others propose Notaras had attempted to bribe Mehmed with Byzantine treasury money, who viewed the act as treason.

Effects
Redirects nearby physical threats towards the user so long as it is worn and the user is alive. Projectile weapons will curve to hit the wearer, melee attacks will inexplicably only hit them, and if by some strange happenstance a bunch of people were falling from the sky, the user would land underneath all of them and take as much of the damage possible until they passed the fatal threshold.
