Magic Items

While smoking this pipe, you can use an action to exhale a puff of smoke that takes the form of a single creature, such as a dragon, a flumph, or a froghemoth. The form must be small enough to fit in a 1-foot cube and loses its shape after a few seconds, becoming an ordinary puff of smoke.

Throughout the adventure there are several chances to discover pistols or smokepowder. Firearms are an oddity in Faerûn and can't be crafted or sold. Once unlocked, pistols can be unlocked for 2 treasure checkpoints, and both smokepowder packets (see below) and bullets (see Dungeon Master's Guide) are added to the character’s evergreen unlock list. Smokepowder unlocked in this way isn’t suitable for any purpose other than to fire this weapon (i.e., NO explosives may be crafted, etc.). Per the ALDMG, mundane equipment is only unlocked for purchase if this document provides an entry specifically unlocking it.

Smokepowder Packet
Wondrous item, uncommon
This magical explosive is used to propel a bullet out of the barrel of a firearm. It is stored in tiny, waterproof leather
packets. A packet contains enough smokepowder for five shots. Casting dispel magic on smokepowder renders it
permanently inert.
A packet of smokepowder can be purchased for 1 treasure checkpoint by any character. Once found, this item goes on a character’s evergreen list of available items.
