Magic Items

Steel
Weapon (longsword), very rare (requires attunement by a good-aligned creature)

You have a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

Revivify. You can use an action to cast the revivify spell from the sword. You must touch the target with the sword to cast the spell. Once this property of the weapon is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Sentience. Steel is a sentient, lawful good longsword with an Intelligence of 8, a Wisdom of 11, and a Charisma of 15. It can see and hear out to a range of 60 feet. The sword can speak, read, and understand Common and Draconic. It frets over your well-being while you are attuned to it, and it doesn’t like to back down from a fight.

Watchful Helm
Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)

While you wear this helm, you gain a +1 bonus to AC and remain aware of your surroundings even while you’re asleep, and you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight.

As a bonus action, you can cast the see invisibility spell from the helm. Once this property of the helm is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Aegis of Hallwinter, Helm’s Last Vigil (Shield of the Cavalier)
Shield (shield), very rare (requires attunement)

While holding this Shield, you have a +2 bonus to Armor Class. This bonus is in addition to the Shield's normal bonus to AC.

The Shield has the following additional properties that you can use while holding it.

Forceful Bash. When you take the Attack, you can make one of the attack rolls using the Shield against a target within 5 feet of yourself. Apply your Proficiency Bonus and Strength modifier to the attack roll. On a hit, the Shield deals Force damage to the target equal to 2d6 + 2 plus your Strength modifier, and if the target is a creature, you can push it up to 10 feet directly away from yourself. If the creature is your size or smaller, you can also knock it down, giving it the Prone condition.

Protective Field. As a Reaction, when you or an ally you can see within 5 feet of you is targeted by an attack or makes a saving throw against an area of effect, you can use the Shield to create an immobile 5-foot Emanation originating from you. When the Emanation appears, any creatures or objects not fully contained within it are pushed into the nearest unoccupied spaces outside it. The attack or area of effect that triggered the Reaction has no effect on creatures and objects inside the Emanation, which lasts as long as you maintain Concentration, up to 1 minute. Nothing can pass into or out of the Emanation. A creature or object inside the Emanation can't be damaged by attacks or effects originating from outside, nor can a creature inside the Emanation damage anything outside it. Once this property is used, it can't be used again until the next dawn.

War Leader.
You plant the rim and speak; Helm’s gauntlet glows, shaping your voice into a clear command that carries six hundred feet through wind and stone. To allies it sounds like a captain’s call; to foes, a gate slamming shut.

Once borne by Chanelle Hallwinter, Paladin of Helm and Knight of Helm’s Hold.

Appearance. A broad kite shield of dusk-steel trimmed in bright electrum. At its heart is Helm’s open gauntlet in high relief; fourteen tiny star-studs ring the emblem. The rim bears a pale nick every few inches where undead teeth once struck and slipped. Despite the crypt’s corruption, the metal is untarnished; cool to the touch, it smells faintly of incense and rain on stone.

Inscription (inner boss).
“Stand. See. Suffer not the innocent to fall.” — C. Hallwinter

Attunement Rite (flavor only).
Kneel, rest the shield upright, and lay your palm in the gauntlet. Speak any vow of watchfulness. The studs glow soft silver, and a calm pressure settles over your chest like a mailed hand.
Hallwinter’s Legacy

" Why it resisted corruption. The shield carries an enduring blessing of Helm placed during the Siege of the Chasm. In Chanelle’s sarcophagus, it quenched necrotic seepage like rain on coals; undead that pressed close left teeth-scores on the rim but never breached the vigil."

• Neverwinter’s heroine. Chanelle Hallwinter held the Blacklake line for three nights while citizens evacuated to the Enclave. Witnesses said she never blinked—the visor of her helm down, the hand of Helm “resting” on her shoulder.

  • Helm’s sign. When a creature threatens a protected ally, a faint eye-slit of light appears across the shield’s gauntlet.

  Table manifestations:
  - When you succeed on a save, the sound of a gate bar dropping echoes softly.
  - While you maintain the Protective Field, motes of silver dust drift like snow and melt on the dome.

Wand of Polymorph
Wand, very rare (requires attunement by a spellcaster)

This wand has 7 charges. While holding it, you can use an action to expend 1 of its charges to cast the polymorph spell (save DC 15) from it.

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 crumbles into ashes and is destroyed.

Crystal Ball of True Seeing (T4 Lockt)
Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement)

The typical crystal ball, a very rare item, is about 6 inches in diameter. While touching it, you can cast the scrying spell (save DC 17) with it.

While scrying with the crystal ball, you have truesight with a radius of 120 feet centered on the spell’s sensor.
