I bear this mask like a carapace, as a beetle does its prized armor. We are not so different, you and I, little beetle. We fight to survive in a world more vast than we know, focusing only on what's in front of us. I see you as an equal and welcomed fellow traveler.
Now, please don't bite me. Ew ew ew ew.

The evolution of a true predator, now with sharpened senses and even sharper claws. A docile, feathered beast no more, but a hunter of ingenuity and prowess. A king of flight and death in one.

They called me a wretched soul for what I’d done, and I would tend to agree. For even in the land of dreams, the heresy I'd commit would haunt me into wakefulness. The creeping toll was heavy, but fair, and to this day I don't sleight the Dream Shaper for its choices.

He took up no scepter, never dressed in regal silks and dyes. Never became what others said he must.
He gave that all for steel, for a traveler's cloak, and for his people.
For where he walked, his people followed. Where he reached out, his people rose. And where he fought, his people found their strength.

Armor (light), rare (requires attunement)
This set of gray and green armor carries the spirit of the forest within it. While wearing it, you can use it to cast the phantom steed spell, but only as a ritual.

In addition, you can use an action to cast either the pass without trace or unseen...

Aith Wren was most comfortable when unobtrusive. Few noticed the drow's slight form in the inn's darkest corner, shade rising to shroud her even as it took the edge off the sunlight pouring through the windows.
Someday she'd build the courage to meet the surface folk; for now, she was content overhearing their simple woes, so different from those of her subterranean kin.

Scroll, uncommon
This scroll comes in a leather tube, and its rich blue surface is covered with thin gridlines. Any mark you make on the surface becomes magically white.
You can tap the scroll twice to cause it to project an illusory three-dimensional projection of whatever's drawn on the scroll. The illusion appears a foot above the scroll's surface and shows any of the illustration's separate components as glowing outlines. The projection can be enlarged or r...

The queen, still displeased, rapped her fingers on the table scroll. A new design, a great weapon of war, drew itself in the air. She examined the model, pulling and pushing pieces around in the air to investigate. She snapped her fingers to summon the engineer.
"This. This right here will cause it to fail!" she jabbed at a joint on the design.
He examined it, took the illusory joint in his fingers, and inspected it with a furrowed brow. With a flick to the s...

The queen pushed her way into the densely packed workshop. "Is it ready?" she demanded, frustrated with the clutter.
"It's ready, Your Majesty." Replied the craftsman, tucking a pair of pliers into his sleeve. "They won't be able to stop it."
"And if they are?" asked the queen, still displeased.
"They won't. I'll be there personally."

"What are you doing, men? Safeguard the prince's chamber!"
The two guards shot to their feet as their captain's voice—not to be taken lightly—rang out. They scrambled down the passage away from their post opposite the statue hall entrance, rounding a corner to be faced with the captain himself. Snapping to a salute, they said in unison, "Headed to the chambers now, sir! Won't be long, sir!" "Chambers? What do you mean?"

The shield rang out like a bell as it stopped the dwarf's hammer mid-swing. The wiry gnome behind the shield popped out a moment later, grinning ear to ear as they said, "Well, nows I've gotta charge ya with assaultin' a battery!"
