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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Animated Shield

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.

Flame Tongue (Shortsword)
Weapon (Shortsword), rare (requires attunement)

These flames shed bright light in a 40-foot radius and dim light for an additional 40 feet.
While the sword is ablaze, it deals an extra 2d6 fire damage to any target it hits.
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.

Staff of Fate
Staff, very rare (requires attunement)

This transparent crystal staff can be wielded as a magic quarterstaff that grants a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it.

Altered Outcome. The staff has 6 charges. As a bonus action, you can expend 1 of the staff’s charges to give yourself or one other creature that you can see a d4. The recipient can roll this d4 and add the number rolled to one ability check, attack roll, damage roll, or saving throw it makes before the start of your next turn. If this extra die is not used before then, it is lost.

If you expend the staff’s last charge, roll a d20. On a roll of 9 or lower, the staff becomes a nonmagical quarterstaff that breaks the first time it scores a hit and deals damage. On a roll of 10 or higher, the staff regains 1d6 of its expended charges.

A shield is made from wood or metal and is carried in one hand. Wielding a shield increases your Armor Class by 2. You can benefit from only one shield at a time.

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.
