Notes:
Wondrous Item, uncommon (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. A creature who 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: Fly, Invisibility, Levitate, Protection from Evil and
Good, Animal Friendship, Protection from Energy (fire only),
or Protection from Poison. 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.
