Armor (shield), uncommon
This shield builds up a small electrostatic charge while worn. When a creature makes a melee attack against you using a metal weapon and the attack roll misses by 2 or less, that creature takes 1d4 lightning damage.
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 ass...

Small. Weak. No use for a stunted giant. Barely over men's height.
Yrsa heard as much—and worse—when they taunted her with the fallen jarl's hatchet. She remembered it as a trinket in her father's hand, yet it was large enough she had to hold it as an ill-balanced battleaxe. So she was cast out, stripped of her birthright.
They'd said her father stood tall enough to drive thunderclouds to the earth, so she danced with the mists he left below. She carved t...

Wondrous item, uncommon
A nimblewrap roll is a roll of gauze, leather, or fabric detailed with flowing patterns. The roll can be wound around the handle of a weapon over the course of 1 minute to magically grant it the finesse property, as the weapon's movements become smooth and fluid, provided that the weapon doesn't have the two handed, heavy, or special property. The roll can be applied in this way to a mundane weapon or a common magic weapon without any...

This is our memoriam, a last cry of all we've lost.
From our blades was forged this token to be tempered in our blood.
Mourn not, for those tears are long shed, now only dust.
But if you wish to remember, take from us this last resort.
Let us serve our final purpose, as blade and ward alike.
From our sacrifice, bring solace.
And from our mourning, light.

Wondrous item, rare
This coin is made from mourningsteel, a metal found below battlefields that have been steeped in blood. A hole at the top allows it to be worn as a soldier's pendant.
When the coin is placed in the mouth of a dead creature, that creature gains the benefits of the gentle repose spell, provided that the creature hasn't been dead for longer than 1 day. Once placed, the coin can't be removed from the creature's mouth until the effects o...

"Get your snake oil here! Only the finest snake oil!"

Potion, rarity varies
Snake oil is an unreliable concoction of alchemy, druidic knowledge, and luck. When found, the potion's rarity is random: Common (90 percent) or Rare (10 percent). Only an identify spell or similar magic can determine the rarity of the potion.
When you use an action to drink the potion, roll a d6 to determine its effects based on the rarity of the potion. Unless it says otherwise, an effect remains for 1 hour. If the poti...

Wondrous item, common
This canvas patch can be magically attached to a piece of clothing by pressing it against the clothing for 1 minute. The patch remains on the clothing until you remove it.
You can remove this patch as a reaction when you fall. When you do, your rate of descent slows to 60 feet per round for 1 hour or until you land. If you land before the effect ends, you take no falling damage and can land on your feet. If you land in water, you remain bu...

The young boy sat on the dock, only stopping to rub the rings under his eyes each time his needle caught on the thimble. Each patch was finished with care, before, after a short rest, he set to work again.
And, with an exhausted smile, he handed each to a sailor just setting out. They took the patches, bemused or grateful, but he always made sure they took them.
Because the last he remembered of his father was a smile, and a call to look after the place until...

There were rumors of a water spirit that haunted the docks at night. A harmless beggar, bearing merely a tattered cloak and bladeless sword handle, would warn passersby of the watery threat, shouting "Beware the moonlit tides! The ruthless spirit of the deep claims all lives!" It seemed to keep to the old section of the city, and for the most part only attracted fools looking to tempt fate.
It was a thriving city, though, with many fools to spare.
Those who s...

Weapon (longsword), uncommon (requires attunement)
This item appears to be a longsword hilt. While grasping the hilt, you can use a bonus action to cause a blade of silently churning water to spring into existence, or make the blade disappear. While the blade exists, this magic longsword has the finesse property. Despite the nature of this watery blade, it cuts through material like any other sword. A fire elemental or similar creature made of fire that's hit with th...

A devil's golden fiddle is a magical trophy among accomplished musicians. Its gilded exterior is marked by embossed, bat-like wings and a carved devil's head. If you're not attuned to the instrument and attempt to play it, you must succeed on a DC 15 Charisma saving throw or take 1d6 psychic damage. Regardless, the fiddle remains silent.
While holding it, you can use a bonus action to play a magical note on it ...

Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement by a monk)
This belt is made from stone plates harvested from the Elemental Plane of Earth. In it are four gemstones, which are each attuned to and associated with a different element and damage type: air (lightning), earth (thunder), fire (fire), and water (cold). When found, the belt's planar energy is channeled through one of these gemstones.
While wearing the belt, you gain resistance to the channeled gem's asso...

The belt is merely a tool to deepen our connection to the elements, not a source of power. Everything we see is made from these elements: the fire that keeps us warm, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the earth we stand upon. To achieve true enlightenment, we must strive to know the elements as we know ourselves, because it is only then that we may begin to understand our world and what it means to be Material.

Weapon (greatsword), rare
This weighty blade has an iron candelabra as its hilt. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. When you hit a target and roll two of the same number on the weapon's slashing damage dice, the target takes an extra 2d6 fire damage. If you've taken fire damage from a hostile source since the end of your last turn, the first target you hit with this weapon on your turn automatically takes this extra fire damag...

"Did you hear about Sal? He got murdered on our last job."

Weapon (arrow), rare
When this magic arrow hits a creature, it immediately explodes into a plume of crow feathers and is destroyed, instead of dealing its normal damage. A flock of ten crows then appears at the target's location. Each crow makes one melee attack against the target, using a +7 attack bonus. On a hit, a crow deals 5 slashing damage as it rakes the target with its sharp talons and beak. The crows fly away and vanish after making the attacks.

This scroll is wound around a wooden dowel with owl faces on either end. When you use an action to read this scroll, choose a trigger for the scroll, centered on a point you can see within 30 feet of you, as well as up to five pieces of information to be recorded when that circumstance occurs. An invisible sensor appears at that point.
The trigger can be as general or as detailed as you like, though it must be based on visual or audible conditi...

This jagged circlet is made from covolt, an elemental blue metal that carries storm-like properties. You have resistance to lightning damage while wearing the circlet, and whenever you or another creature that you can see within 60 feet of you takes lightning damage, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by 2d8. When you do, the electricity leaps towards the circlet before being immediately discharged as a beam...

Kallan reached out with quick and curious hands. She'd never seen anything like it before. With a flick of her wrist, she produced an empty vial. Carefully, she scraped a small sample of the ooze inside. She was sure the academy would be interested the next time they visited. With another flick of her wrist, the vial was gone, but in its place was a small, glass ring with a cork signet. She placed it among the tangle of treasures she kept in her braids for safekeeping, and moved onto the ...
