Javelin of Lightning uncommon CCC-BFG 01-03 Dark Moon Return CCC-BFG 01-03 Dark Moon Return Show
Notes:

Javelin of Lightning
Weapon (javelin), uncommon

This javelin is a magic weapon. When you hurl it and speak its command word, it transforms into a bolt of lightning, forming a line 5 feet wide that extends out from you to a target within 120 feet.

Each creature in the line excluding you and the target must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, taking 4d6 lightning damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one. The lightning bolt turns back into a javelin when it reaches the target.

Make a ranged weapon attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes damage from the javelin plus 4d6 lightning damage.

The javelin's property can't be used again until the next dawn. In the meantime, the javelin can still be used as a magic weapon. Proficiency with a javelin allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.

Ioun Stone of Awareness rare DDHC-CM The Canopic Being DDHC-CM The Canopic Being Show
Notes:

Ioun Stone of Awareness
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement)

An Ioun stone is named after Ioun, a god of knowledge and prophecy revered on some worlds. Many types of Ioun stone exist, each type a distinct combination of shape and color.

When you use an action to toss one of these stones into the air, the stone orbits your head at a distance of 1d3 feet and confers a benefit to you. Thereafter, another creature must use an action to grasp or net the stone to separate it from you, either by making a successful attack roll against AC 24 or a successful DC 24 Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. You can use an action to seize and stow the stone, ending its effect.

A stone has AC 24, 10 hit points, and resistance to all damage. It is considered to be an object that is being worn while it orbits your head.

Awareness (Rare). You can’t be surprised while this dark blue rhomboid orbits your head.

Horn of Blasting rare DDHC-CM-16 Alkazaar's Appendix DDHC-CM-16 Alkazaar's Appendix Show
Notes:

Horn of Blasting
Wondrous item, rare

You can use an action to speak the horn’s command word and then blow the horn, which emits a thunderous blast in a 30-foot cone that is audible 600 feet away. Each creature in the cone must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 5d6 thunder damage and is deafened for 1 minute. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage and isn’t deafened. Creatures and objects made of glass or crystal have disadvantage on the saving throw and take 10d6 thunder damage instead of 5d6.

Each use of the horn’s magic has a 20 percent chance of causing the horn to explode. The explosion deals 10d6 fire damage to the blower and destroys the horn.

Golden Apple (Astromancy Archive) rare SJ-DC-ECHO-01 Starfall SJ-DC-ECHO-01 Starfall Show
Notes:

Golden Apple (Astromancy Archive)

Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a wizard)

This brass disc of articulated, concentric rings unfolds into an armillary sphere. As a bonus action, you can unfold it into the sphere or back into a disc. When found, it contains the following spells, which are wizard pells for you while you are attuned to it: augury, divination, find the path, foresight, locate creature, and ocate object. It functions as a spellbook for you, with spells encoded on the rings.

While you are holding the archive, you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your wizard spells.

The archive has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. You can use the charges in the following ways while holding it:

If you spend 1 minute studying the archive, you can expend 1 charge to replace one of your prepared wizard spells with a different spell in the archive. The new spell must be of the divination school.

When a creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to expend 1 charge and force the creature to roll a d4 and apply the number rolled as a bonus or penalty (your choice) to the original roll. You can do this after you see the roll but before its effects are applied.

This item is found in the Dungeon Masters Guide.

Created by the astral elves of the Paradise Moon, the leaves of the Golden Apple are made of brilliantly colored crystals, grown in the Crystal Grove of the Hesperides Temple. So that the adventurers may carry the Song of the Hesperides with them wherever they travel, whenever spells are cast through the item, its crystal leaves resonate against one another, ‘echoing’ a tiny portion of the ancient song back to its wielder.

Song Craft. Whenever this item is struck or is used to strike a foe, its bearer hears a fragment of an ancient song.

Gem of Brightness uncommon DDHC-TOA-04 Cellar of Death DDHC-TOA-04 Cellar of Death Show
Notes:

Gem of Brightness
Wondrous item, uncommon

This prism has 50 Charges. While you are holding it, you can use an action to speak one of three Command words to cause one of the following effects:

The first Command word causes the gem to shed bright light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for an additional 30 feet. This Effect doesn’t expend a charge. It lasts until you use a Bonus Action to repeat the Command word or until you use another function of the gem.
The second Command word expends 1 charge and causes the gem to fire a brilliant beam of light at one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The creature must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become Blinded for 1 minute. The creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, Ending the Effect on itself on a success.
The third Command word expends 5 Charges and causes the gem to flare with Blinding Light in a 30-foot cone originating from it. Each creature in the cone must make a saving throw as if struck by the beam created with the second Command word.
When all of the gem’s Charges are expended, the gem becomes a nonmagical jewel worth 50 gp.

The flames last until you use a bonus action to speak the command word again or until you drop or sheathe the sword.
Feature: This sword, forged from a shard of glistening obsidian, appears solid and unbending, like the ground itself. The blade shifts slowly when set ablaze, as though its surface were gently flowing lava.

Fabric of Time (Guardian Mantle of Spell Resistance) rare WBW-DC-MOM-01 One Moment WBW-DC-MOM-01 One Moment Show
Notes:

Fabric of Time (Guardian Mantle of Spell Resistance)

Wondrous item, rare (requires Attunement)

You have advantage on saving throws against spells while you wear this cloak. This silvery scrap fashioned from a piece of Momentum itself struggles to contain history within the length of its fabric, and the ever-fraying threads of the mantle are never quite the same from moment to moment. The strands pull free of each other before eventually knitting back together, but the exquisite workmanship of this vintage cloak remains intact. Minor Property (Guardian) The item whispers warnings to its bearer, granting a +2 bonus to initiative if the bearer isn’t incapacitated. Quirk (Frail) The item crumbles, frays, chips, or cracks slightly when wielded, worn, or activated. This quirk has no effect on its properties, but if the item has seen much use, it looks decrepit.

Eyes of Minute Seeing uncommon DDHC-CM The Canopic Being DDHC-CM The Canopic Being Show
Notes:

Eyes of Minute Seeing
Wondrous item, uncommon

Enlightenment (Language Wand of Pyrotechnics/Netherese: Loross) common WBW-DC-MOM-01 One Moment WBW-DC-MOM-01 One Moment Show
Notes:

ENLIGHTENMENT (LANGUAGE WAND OF PYROTECHNICS / NETHERESE: LOROSS*)

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.

Formed out of glowing lines of light that constantly shift into new configurations, this orange wand is compact and fits neatly in the palm of your hand. The lines occasionally form into runic symbols from some long-dead language, but these seem impossible to decipher.

Minor Property (Language - Netherese: Loross*)

The bearer can speak and understand a language of the DM’s choice while the item is on the bearer’s person.

*As the Domain of Delight of Momentum is formed from major and minor historical moments, Loross from the Netheril Empire is suggested as a suitably ancient language for this Minor Property.

Quirk (Metamorphic) The item periodically and randomly alters its appearance in slight ways. The bearer has no control over these minor alterations, which have no effect on the item’s use.

Dwarven Plate rare DDHC-CM-16 Alkazaar's Appendix DDHC-CM-16 Alkazaar's Appendix Show

Deck of Illusions uncommon CCC-BFG 01-02 Secrets of the Moon CCC-BFG 01-02 Secrets of the Moon Show
Notes:

Deck of Illusions
Wonderous Item, uncommon

This box contains a set of parchments cards. A full deck has 34 cards. This deck is missing the following 10 cards: Ace of Hearts, Queen of Hearts, Jack of Hearts, Eight of Hearts, Two of Hearts, Nine of Diamonds, Two of Diamonds, Queen of Spades, Jack of Clubs and Ten of Clubs.

The magic of the deck functions only if cards are drawn at random (you can use an altered deck of playing cards to simulate the deck). You can use an action to draw a card at random from the deck and throw it to the ground at a point within 30 feet of you.

An illusion if one or more creature forms over the thrown card and remains until dispelled. An illusory creature appears real, of the appropriate size, and behaves as if it were a real creature except that it can do no harm. While you are within 120 feet of the illusory creature and can see it, you can use an action to move it magically anywhere within 30 feet of the card. Any physical interaction with the illusory creature reveals it to be an illusion because objects pass through it.

Someone who uses an action to visually inspect the creature identifies it as illusory with a successful DC 15 Intelligence (Investigation) check. The creature appears translucent. The illusion lasts until its card is moved or the illusion is dispelled. When the illusion ends, the image on its card disappears, and that card cannot be used again.

This item is found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide. Each card of this deck bears the image of an old gnome, whose facial expression randomly changes each time a card is looked at.

Sometimes these expressions can be quite rude! In fact, whenever a card is used, a sound matching the expression (audible only to the user) seems to emanate from the card prior to its effect.

Bag of Devouring very_rare CCC-FC3-01-03 Tales of Estirwald - The Fun House CCC-FC3-01-03 Tales of Estirwald - The Fun House Show
Notes:

Bag of Devouring
Wondrous Item, very rare

This bag superficially resembles a Bag of Holding but is a feeding orifice for a gigantic extra dimensional creature. Turning the bag inside out closes the orifice.

The extra dimensional creature attached to the bag can sense whatever is placed inside the bag. Animal or vegetable matter placed wholly in the bag is devoured and lost forever. When part of a living creature is placed in the bag, as happens when someone reaches inside it, there is a 50 percent chance that the creature is pulled inside the bag. A creature inside the bag can use its action to try to escape with a successful DC 15 Strength check.
Another creature can use its action to reach into the bag to pull a creature out, doing so with a successful DC 20 Strength check (provided it isn't pulled inside the bag first). Any creature that starts its turn inside the bag is devoured, its body destroyed.

Inanimate objects can be stored in the bag, which can hold a cubic foot of such material. However, once each day, the bag swallows any objects inside it and spits them out into another plane of existence. The DM determines the time and plane.

If the bag is pierced or torn, it is destroyed, and anything contained within it is transported to a random location on the Astral Plane.

Ambledragon said this bag would help cover up mistakes and deal with challenging individuals. I wonder how many “mistakes” he has used it on in the past….

This item can be found in the ​Dungeon Master’s Guide.
