🌞 NEW #DnD MAGIC ITEM 🌜

First Night

The cosmos has many secrets stored away, this mask is one to help you unlock your astral powers. Remember to check out our Patreon where we have over 250 magic items, creatures, and more waiting for you.
First Night Wondrous Item, Very Rare (requires attunement) This brazen mask is styled after those popularly worn at masquerade balls held by those in the highest levels of society. The stark black visage around the eyes is contrasted with a bright plumage of red and yellow resembling the sun. Within this radiant promenation, a symbol resembling a crescent moon is carved, consistently emitting an illusory image of a moon in front of it. Touching it fills your body with the warmth of the sun while your skin ripples with cold chills of a dark evening. While attuned to it, this mask has two states that can be switched between by using a bonus action on your turn to speak a command word and change how prominently the moon is featured. The properties of each state confer the benefits below. Waxing Radiance. While in this state, you gain a +2 bonus to perception checks that rely on sight. Additionally, when you deal fire damage with a leveled spell, you can choose one creature that was affected by the spell to take an additional 2d6 fire damage. Waning Light. While in this state, you gain darkvision out to 60 feet. If you already have darkvision, your range is extended by 60 feet. Additionally, once per day when you cast a leveled spell that deals cold damage, you can choose to not expend that spell slot. This ability resets daily at dawn.

Yeah look, I just wanted a fantasy super soaker since I never had one as a kid. I think that's a perfectly valid reason to make something 😅

Diredouser Wondrous Item, Rare This odd mechanism is composed of two large tanks attached to a series of pipes and fittings that run to a contraption made to be carried with a spraying nozzle on the front. It has leather straps mounted to the tanks to allow it to be worn on a creature’s back. The tanks can be refilled by completely submerging the backpack in water. If the tanks are filled with any liquid other than water, the nozzle becomes gummed up and the soaker stops functioning until you spend 1 hour cleaning it. The tanks contain enough water to activate any combination of the abilities below 5 times total with each ability removing one use. Boost. You spray the water downwards allowing you to jump an additional 15 feet in distance or height. Drench. You attempt to soak an item or creature within 30 feet of you, that you can see. The creature must succeed on a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw or become drenched. A drenched creature is vulnerable to lightning damage for 1 minute. This also puts out non-magical fires. Blast. You shoot a powerful blast of water towards a creature within 30 feet of you, that you can see. That creature must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be shoved 10 feet away from you and knocked prone.

🔥 As the plague spreads, the fact of it having a will of its own is made incontestable. New forms arise from the corpses with intent beyond spreading the disease. Deathless Union is such an example, constructed to reward those that give themselves to necromancy.

Remember, it's sometimes good to unplug... lest you end up with this.
Brain Rot Wondrous Item, Rare (requires attunement) This unusual looking, gleaming gold crown is decorated with gazing green eyes that move at all times searching for intelligent creatures around it. The interior of the crown looks like a remarkably well crafted brain that is nearly indistinguishable from the real thing. Several winding tentacles move autonomously from the bottom of it, twisting and reaching toward any that approach the crown. Looking upon the crown fills your head with visions of intelligent grandeur and promises of remarkable speechcraft. Curse. This crown is cursed and becoming attuned to it extends the curse to you. While cursed by this item, you forget all languages you previously knew, but gain a new language called Brain Rot. This new language sounds like Common, but is strewn with a dizzying mixture of terms and phrases that make little sense to others that don’t speak this language. When you speak to a creature while cursed, they must succeed on a DC 16 Intelligence Saving throw to understand what you said. If they fail their saving throw, you and the creature you spoke to take 1d8+2 psychic damage. This crown cannot be removed and attunement cannot be broken unless it is targeted by a Remove Curse spell.

🔥 The Crawling Folk are now referred to as Deathless, a name spoken with fear. As the undying plague shapes their bodies to make more corpses to reanimate, they’re turned into droning biological weapons that terrify ant, bee, and spider alike.

🔥 The Valley of Swarms has been overrun by the undying plague, a miasma that infects most of the Crawling Folk and took their minds over. This necromantic disease seeks new hosts by shaping the carapaces and flesh into vectors of contagion, such as the ones that swarm this staff.

🪄 NEW MUSICAL MAGIC ITEM 🎻

Hurty Gurdy

You can weave a soulful symphony, that is if you can take the pain. Save your friends with our latest magical creation for #DnD and visit our Patreon where we have helpful formats like Foundry VTT modules for over 250 magic items! patreon.com/abyssalbrews
Hurty Gurdy Musical Instrument, Very Rare (requires attunement) It seems that someone took great lengths to make this wheel fiddle as imposing as possible by adding spikes to nearly every flat surface on it. Even the strings themselves have been replaced with a tightly wound, yet fine sounding steel wire covered in barbs. Though this instrument hasn’t seen use in some time, there are still deep red stains covering it. It would seem that the users of it in years gone by have left their mark. You gain a +1 bonus to performance checks made with this magical instrument. When you perform with it, roll a d6. On an even result, you cut yourself and take 1d8 piercing damage. On an odd result, you do not cut yourself and gain a +3 bonus instead as the performance is especially impressive. Once per day, when an ally within 30 feet of you would take damage as part of a weapon or spell attack, you can use a reaction to grind a grating note, redirecting 25 points of the triggering damage to yourself. Any resistances you have still apply to this damage, but the original target still takes any additional conditions from the hit.

They might laugh at first, but when you transform into a massive owlbear and rip their faces off, their tune might change.

Hoot Suit Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a druid) While it does look a bit ridiculous, you would be wise to keep any heckling to yourself should you see someone wearing this suit. Looks, after all, can be deceiving. Designed to mimic the appearance of the fearsome owlbear, this suit is perfect for druids that want to embody the impossible and take their wild shapes to a new, and more imposing, level. While attuned to this suit, your Strength score becomes 19. If your strength score is higher than 19, then this benefit has no effect on you. Additionally your senses become extremely keen granting you gain advantage on Perception checks that rely on the use of sight or smell. Wildest Shape. While attuned to this suit, you gain the ability to transform into an owlbear when you use your wild shape feature. You gain the abilities of an owlbear just as you would with any other wild shape. Due to the unstable nature of this transformation, you can only stay in your owlbear form for 10 minutes instead of your usual duration.

Happy holidays!

🔥 Changelings are sent to take the place of children and grow among mortals. A few of them receive gifts from their homelands, enchanted items disguised as toys. Such is the case of the Wildwood Stallion, a toy horse hewn of fairy wood, ready to spring into life.
