Cloak of Symbiotic Protection (Magic Cloak)

This type of cloak is very rare. It is impregnated with an immobile, nonintelligent living substance of unknown origin and nature that cannot be isolated by alchemists and naturalists for study. The symbiote drains 1 hit point of vitality from the wearer every other time it is put on (or, if worn continuously, once every two days), and makes the wearer color blind while the cloak is worn.
In return, the cloak confers immunity to the effects of green slime, olive slime, obliviax, violet fungi, yellow musk creeper, yellow mold, and russet mold (but not brown mold). In addition, the cloak gives a bonus of +4 to saving throws against spore attacks of all other sorts (including those of the myconid, ascomoid, basidirond, and similar creatures). The symbiotic life form in the cloak seems to feed upon and neutralize spores and microscopic, airborne life of all sorts; in many cases, this ability gives the wearer a -6% penalty to chances of contracting diseases.
