The helm of opposite alignment is a helm which will reverse your alignment when worn, with the message "Your mind oscillates briefly". Note that this will remove any divine protection you've acquired since you have a new god. Removing the helm (made difficult by its autocursing) will restore your original alignment (again removing protection).
Donning the helm as a lawful or chaotic character will swap between those two alignments; a neutral character will have their alignment set randomly to one of those two.
Negative Effects
If your alignment has been changed in this fashion, you will not be able to do the quest as the quest leader will prevent you from entering. However, after removing the helmet and returning to your original alignment, you can do the quest.
You will lose any god-granted protection whenever your alignment changes.
Positive Effects
The helm has proven popular as a means of shortening the time spent on the Astral Plane - if one finds the high altar of opposite alignment they can don the helm to successfully ascend using that altar.
Another use is in those rare games where the only altar is the guaranteed altar in the minetown. You may be able to use the helm to get holy water and sacrifice corpses to raise luck and potentially be granted an artifact.
