Magic Items

Wondrous Item (tattoo), uncommon (requires attunement)

Produced by a special needle, this magic tattoo depicts clawlike forms and other jagged shapes.

Tattoo Attunement. To attune to this item, you hold the needle to your skin where you want the tattoo to appear, pressing the needle there throughout the attunement process. When the attunement is complete, the needle turns into the ink that becomes the tattoo, which appears on the skin. If your attunement to the tattoo ends, the tattoo vanishes, and the needle reappears in your space.

Magical Strikes. While the tattoo is on your skin, your unarmed strikes are considered magical for the purpose of overcoming immunity and resistance to nonmagical attacks, and you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls with unarmed strikes.

Eldritch Maul. As a bonus action, you can empower the tattoo for 1 minute. For the duration, each of your melee attacks with a weapon or an unarmed strike can reach a target up to 15 feet away from you, as inky tendrils launch toward the target. In addition, your melee attacks deal an extra 1d6 force damage on a hit. Once used, this bonus action can’t be used again until the next dawn.

This item is found in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything

Strange Material. Instead of a needle, the tattoo is created by a wriggling worm that a character can place on their arm. They can allow the worm to burrow painlessly and harmlessly into their flesh, where it will remain motionless in the form of a raised clawlike pattern beneath the skin. When the tattoo is activated, the worm will become agitated and move around, causing a moving bulge to appear beneath the skin.

You can cut this 50-foot coil of hempen rope into any number of smaller pieces, and then use an action to speak a command word and cause the pieces to knit back together. The pieces must be in contact with each other and not otherwise in use. A rope of mending is forever shortened if a section of it is lost or destroyed.

This item is found in Xanathar's Guide to Everything

Strange Material. The rope is in the form of a long slender vine that has glossy green leaves and small white flowers growing from it.
