This staff has 20 charges and can be wielded as a magic Quarterstaff that grants a +2 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls made with it. While holding it, you gain a +2 bonus to Armor Class, saving throws, and spell attack rolls.

Regaining Charges. The staff regains 2d8 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll 1d20. On a 1, the staff retains its +2 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls but loses all other properties. On a 20, the staff regains 1d8 + 2 charges.

Retributive Strike. You can take a Magic action to break the staff over your knee or against a solid surface. The staff is destroyed and releases its magic in an explosion that fills a 30-foot Emanation originating from itself. You have a 50 percent chance to instantly travel to a random plane of existence, avoiding the explosion. If you fail to avoid the effect, you take Force damage equal to 16 times the number of charges in the staff. Each other creature in the area makes a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes Force damage equal to 4 times the number of charges in the staff. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage.

Staff of the Python
Staff, uncommon (requires attunement by a cleric, druid, or warlock)

You can use an action to speak this staff’s command word and throw the staff on the ground within 10 feet of you. The staff becomes a giant constrictor snake under your control and acts on its own initiative count. By using a bonus action to speak the command word again, you return the staff to its normal form in a space formerly occupied by the snake.

On your turn, you can mentally command the snake if it is within 60 feet of you and you aren’t incapacitated. You decide what action the snake takes and where it moves during its next turn, or you can issue it a general command, such as to attack your enemies or guard a location.

If the snake is reduced to 0 hit points, it dies and reverts to its staff form. The staff then shatters and is destroyed. If the snake reverts to staff form before losing all its hit points, it regains all of them.

Tyr's Justice (Greatsword +2)
Weapon (Greatsword), Rare
You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magical greatsword. In addition, the weapon has the Guardian minor property, which whispers warnings to you, granting you a +2 bonus to initiative, providing you aren’t incapacitated.

HISTORY

From 1340 to 1385 DR, Lord Mattus Althorin ruled a small fiefdom in the Border Kingdoms near the Lake of Steam. Lord Althorin ran his council and maintained peace in his lands with the assistance of the Knights of the Holy Judgement, an order of paladins who emphasize the "lawful" part of their dedication to Tyr. To dispense Tyr’s most brutal judgements, Lord Althorin commissioned the creation of a magical greatsword, which he dubbed “Tyr’s Justice”. During his rule, several different paladins belonging to the Order of the Knights of Holy Judgement claimed the headman’s sword as their own. When the Spellplague ravaged Toril in the Year of Blue Fire, the Border Kingdoms devolved into a lawless frontier of outlaws and would-be rulers, and the sword was lost for nearly a century. It later resurfaced in the Moonsea region. Other than the balanced scales of Try’s holy symbol etched into its blade, the sword is intentionally simple in appearance, mirroring Lord Althorin’s predominant belief: “Justice is not pretentious or vain. It is simple and true, and the right of every man, woman, and child, no matter how rich, poor, educated, or ignorant they may be.” GLORY BE TO YOU ALMIGHTY LORD OF JUSTICE. IN YOU, LORD, I PUT MY TRUST; MAY I NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME. IN YOUR JUSTICE, SET ME FREE, TURN YOUR EAR TO ME; MAKE HASTE TO RESCUE ME. BE MY RAMPART, MY FORTIFICATION; KEEP ME SAFE. FOR YOU ARE MY STRENGTH AND MY REFUGE, I KNOW YOU WILL HELP ME. INTO YOUR HANDS, I COMMEND MY SPIRIT: YOU HAVE REDEEMED ME, LORD GOD OF JUSTICE.
