Enchanted Crown of the Sepsis Whore

“It’s purple. Purple is my color. Do you know how many purple ribbons I’ve won? Do you know what it takes to get a purple ribbon?”[1]

The Enchanted Crown of the Sepsis Whore is a tiara glittering with dark smokey gems. At its center is a deep purple stone that appears to be swirling with clouds, as though made of liquid.[2]

Description

Enchanted Crown of the Sepsis Whore.'
'Who’s a dirty girl? You’re a dirty girl!
'This is a Fleeting item!
This is a Unique* item!

Imbues wearer with +5 Intelligence, grants the user +5 to the Good First Impression Skill. All attacks, including magical attacks, now have a 15% chance to inflict the Sepsis Debuff.

Warning! (Seriously though. I’m going to say this again. WARNING! Read this shit before you put it on.)

Placing this crown upon your head permanently places you within the royal line of succession for the Blood Sultanate on the ninth floor of the world dungeon. Removing this item will not remove this status. Royal members of the Blood Sultanate will be required to slay the Sultan and all other members of the royal family before descending to the tenth floor. You’ll only want to wear this if you’re a blood-thirsty, raging psychopath.[3]

Story

Book 1

Donut receives the Crown of the Sepsis Whore in a Legendary Quadruped Box for being the first cat to enter the Dungeon, and immediately equips it (ignoring Mordecai's warnings).[2]

After their appearance on Death Watch Extreme Dungeon Mayhem, Donut brings up the Ninth Floor requirement as they settle in to sleep:

“Carl?”
“What, Donut?” I said, trying not to let the exasperation sound in my voice.
“I heard what he said to you, about the ninth floor, I mean.”
“Don’t let that idiot bother you.”
“No, not the orc. I mean Mordecai. When he told you that you should leave me when we get to that floor. I heard him.”
“Let’s worry about getting to the Third Floor before we even think about something as far away as the ninth. We don’t even know what the hell that is all about.”
“Okay,” she said, her voice small. [4]

Book 2

SPOILERS FOR BOOK 2

The fact that Donut has equipped the crown limits some of the class options during class selection for Donut. [5] She wears it until the Royal Court completes the Fools Who Broke the Glass Quest on the Third Floor, and all crawlers in the area flee for the stairwells to escape dangerous pulses of wild soul magic that turn their own enchanted equipment against them.[6]

Book 5

SPOILERS FOR BOOK 5
The crown finds its way to Eva Sigrid at some point before or during the Sixth Floor, and she hides it in her glittering purple breastplate. When Katia Grim kills Eva during the floor's final showdown, Eva places it on Katia's head, and the crown automatically equips itself. Katia catches eyes with Li Jun and Li Na as the crown sinks into her mass and the reality sinks in: only one of Katia or Donut will be able to descend the stairs from the ninth floor to the Tenth Floor.[7]
