...With a minor hiccup: Annual options are limited by Patreon to a maximum of 16% off. I have an email going with Patreon to investigate better options. Still: get two months free when you subscribe for a full year! If and when I can set custom annual options, you can be sure I'll do so.

Wondrous item, rare
This egg-shaped silver bomb is covered with dragon scales and encircled with a draconic sculpture. A thin wisp of mist streams from the top. You can use an action to throw the bomb at a point that you can see within 30 feet of you. The bomb erupts on impact, releasing a cloud of silvery mist in a 60-foot-radius sphere centered on that point. When this happens, choose 1d6 + 10 10-foot cubes of unoccupied mist within the area, which must be contiguous. ...

Wondrous item, uncommon
These glasses reshape to loop around your head, instead of over the bridge of your nose. As a result, the lenses are seemingly unattached. While wearing the glasses, you can make an Intelligence (Investigation) check whenever you use an action to make a Wisdom (Perception) check, or vice versa, provided that both checks rely on sight. You make both checks simultaneously. Additionally, while you wear the glasses, your passive Intelligence (Investig...

Wondrous item, common
While wearing these boots, you can use a bonus action to increase or decrease the height of the soles, up to a maximum of 5 feet (provided there's enough room) and a minimum of 1 inch.
A gnome's glare is unnerving enough from the ground, and doubly so at eye level.
Hope you haven't angered one enough to go higher than that.
