Wondrous item, common (requires attunement)

This musical instrument has 3 charges. While you are playing it, you can use an action to expend 1 charge from the instrument and write a magical message on a nonmagical object or surface that you can see within 30 feet of you. The message can be up to six words long and is written in a language you know. If you are a bard, you can scribe an additional seven words and choose to make the message glow faintly, allowing it to be seen in nonmagical darkness. Casting dispel magic on the message erases it. Otherwise, the message fades away after 24 hours.

The instrument regains all expended charges daily at dawn.

This instrument is a flute made of whale bone.

Wand of Pyrotechnics (wand, common)

This wand has 7 charges. While holding it, you can use an action to expend 1 of its charges and create a harmless burst of multicolored light at a point you can see up to 60 feet away. The burst of light is accompanied by a crackling noise that can be heard up to 300 feet away. The light is as bright as a torch flame but lasts only a second.

The wand regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the wand’s last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the wand erupts in a harmless pyrotechnic display and is destroyed.

This item is found in the Xanathar's Guide to Everything

Illuminator’s Tattoo
Wondrous item (tattoo), common (requires attunement)
Produced by a special needle, this magic tattoo features
beautiful calligraphy, images of writing implements, and
the like.

Tattoo Attunement. To attune to this item, you hold the
needle to your skin where you want the tattoo to appear,
pressing the needle there throughout the attunement
process. When the attunement is complete, the needle
turns into the ink that becomes the tattoo, which appears
on the skin.

If your attunement to the tattoo ends, the tattoo vanishes,
and the needle reappears in your space.

Magical Scribing. While this tattoo is on your skin, you
can write with your fingertip as if it were an ink pen that
never runs out of ink.

As an action, you can touch a pierce of writing up to one
page in length and speak a creature’s name. The writing
becomes invisible to everyone other than you and the
named creature for the next 24 hours. Either of you can
dismiss the invisibility by touching the script (no action
required). Once used, this action can’t be used again until
the next dawn.

Wondrous Item, Uncommon
Smokepowder is a magical explosive chiefly used to propel a bullet out of the barrel of a firearm. It is stored in airtight wooden kegs or tiny, waterproof leather packets. A packet contains enough smokepowder for five shots.
If smokepowder is set on fire, dropped, or otherwise handled roughtly, it explodes and deals fire damage to each creature or object within 20 feet of it: 1d6 for a packet. A successful DC 12 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
Casting dispel magic on smokepowder renders it permanently inert. This item is found in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist.

Cloak of the Manta Ray (Wondrous item, uncommon)

While wearing this cloak with its hood up, you can breathe underwater, and you have a swimming speed of 60 feet. Pulling the hood up or down requires an action.

This item is found in the Basic Rules.

This cloak is made from a spotted goat skin with the fur still on.

Mithral Armor
Armor (medium or heavy, but not hide), uncommon

Mithral is a light, flexible metal. A mithral chain shirt or breastplate can be worn under normal clothes. If the armor normally imposes disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks or has a Strength requirement, the mithral version of the armor doesn’t.

This fine suit of armor has dwarven runes etched upon it. The runes describe the glories of great battles in the North against orcs. The armor glows faintly when within 100 feet of orcs.

If you take Cold damage while wearing this ring, the ring reduces the damage you take by 2d8.
In addition, while wearing this ring, you and everything you wear and carry are unharmed by temperatures of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower.
This band of this ring is made of unblemished silver that is slightly cool to the touch.

Cli Lyre
Wondrous item, rare (requires Attunement by a bard)

An Instrument of the bards is an exquisite example of its kind, superior to an Ordinary Instrument in every way. Seven types of these Instruments exist, each named after a legendary Bard College. The following table lists the Spells Common to all Instruments, as well as the Spells specific to each one and its Rarity. A creature that attempts to play the Instrument without being attuned to it must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or take 2d4 psychic damage.

You can use an Action to play the Instrument and cast one of its Spells. Once the Instrument has been used to Cast a Spell, it can’t be used to cast that spell again until the next dawn. The Spells use your Spellcasting ability and spell save DC.

You can play the Instrument while Casting a Spell that causes any of its Targets to be Charmed on a failed saving throw, thereby imposing disadvantage on the save. This Effect applies only if the spell has a somatic or a material component.

Spells: Fly, Invisibility, Levitate, Protection from evil and good, Stone Shape, Wall of Fire, Wind Wall

Mirror of the past
Wondrous Item, rare
The holder of this platinum hand mirror can learn something about the history of a specific object or creature by taking an action to gaze into the mirror and think of the target. Instead of the holder’s reflection, the mirror presents scenes from the target’s past. Information conveyed is accurate, but it is random and cryptic, and presented in no particular order. Once it is activated, the mirror gives its information for 1 minute or less, then returns to normal. It can’t be used again until the next dawn.
This item is found in Tales from the Yawning Portal.
The rim of this circular mirror is engraved with Draconic letters, which spells out the following sentence in Loross: “Look into me, and I will show you what has been.”

BRACERS OF DEFENSE Wondrous Item, rare (requires attunement) While wearing these bracers, you gain a +2 bonus to AC if you are wearing no armor and using no shield.

Wicked. When the bearer is presented with an opportunity to act in a selfish or malevolent way, the item heightens the bearer’s urge to do so. Flavour: Laughing’s cruelty echoes in the cold iron of this chain. It coils around one’s forearms and provides magical protection, but the chain’s touch taints the wearer’s thoughts with selfishness and malevolence.

Silver Horn of Valhalla
Wondrous item, rare

You can use an action to blow this horn. In response, warrior spirits from the plane of Ysgard appear within 60 feet of you. These spirits use the berserker statistics from the Monster Manual. They return to Ysgard after 1 hour or when they drop to 0 hit points. Once you use the horn, it can’t be used again until 7 days have passed.

Four types of horn of Valhalla are known to exist, each made of a different metal. The horn’s type determines how many berserkers answer its summons, as well as the requirement for its use. The DM chooses the horn’s type or determines it randomly.

If you blow the horn without meeting its requirement, the summoned berserkers attack you. If you meet the requirement, they are friendly to you and your companions and follow your commands.

d100 Horn Type Berserkers Summoned Requirement
01-40 Silver 2d4+2 None
41-75 Brass 3d4+3 Proficiency with all simple weapons
76-90 Bronze 4d4+4 Proficiency with all medium armor
91-00 Iron 5d4+5 Proficiency with all martial weapons

Rod, rare (requires attunement by a warlock)
