I was a huge fan of the first 5e starter set, “Lost Mine of Phandelver.” I used that set so many times! Very curious to see how the new one stacks up! Stay tuned!

Just got Horrified: Dungeons & Dragons by @ravensburgertcg.bsky.social to the table and brought the smackdown on a displacer beast and beholder. Had a close call when Volo wandered up to the beholder, but we managed to save him with the help of Laeral Silverhand. Video review coming soon!

Censer of Ignition (5e)
Wondrous item, rare
This metal censer bowl is shaped like a small brazier with steel legs molded to look like a roaring fire. You can use an action while touching the censer to expend a spell slot without casting a spell, instead directing your magic to light the censer for 1 minute. The censer makes fires burn more intensely within 30 feet of it. Any creature that takes fire damage in the area while the censer is lit takes an additional 1d6 fire damage per level of the expended spell slot—1d6 fire damage for a level 1 spell slot up to 9d6 fire damage for a level 9 spell slot. The censer can’t be used this way again until the next dawn.

This week is the UNREMARKABLE HAT!

Back us on patreon.com/thegallantgoblin to see all our releases and get VTT tokens, print and play cards, and PDF booklets of our content!

Art of a dark purple medieval-style beret with a colorful feather sticking out of it. There's a subtle black swirl effect around it that gives it a slightly foreboding aura.

Unremarkable Hat (5e)
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)
This hat has an aura of forgettability around it. It doesn’t stand out in any way. It’s bland, boring, perfect for going unnoticed. While you wear this hat, people won’t notice you as long as you don’t draw attention to yourself or engage in social interactions like a lengthy conversation—meaningless pleasantries like simple greetings don’t count. Creatures who don’t notice you make attempts to recall your presence or your identity with disadvantage.

Item 3
Invested, Magical
Price 45 gp
Usage worn headwear; Bulk L

Recall Knowledge checks beyond one day automatically fail.

This week is the WING CHIMES!

Back us on patreon.com/thegallantgoblin to see all our releases and get VTT tokens, print and play cards, and PDF booklets of our content!

Art of brass wind chimes where the chimes are shaped like feathers hanging off a silver sculpture of a bird in flight.

Wing Chimes (5e)
Wondrous item, uncommon
This set of wind chimes fashioned to look like a bird in flight can keep watch for you. Once per day, you can spend an action to place the chimes on the ground while mentally choosing up to 10 creatures, including yourself, to protect. The chimes then hover about 5 feet in the air for 8 hours. If a creature hostile to any of the creatures you designate comes within 500 feet of the chimes during that time, the chimes telepathically notify all the designated creatures in the area, waking them if they’re asleep, and grants them a flying speed of 50 feet for 1 minute. The chimes then become inactive, having expended their magic for the day.
