Produced by a special needle, this magic tattoo contains a single spell of up to 5th level, wrought on your skin by a magic needle. To use the tattoo, you must hold the needle against your skin and speak the command word. The needle turns into ink that becomes the tattoo, which appears on the skin in whatever design you like. Once the tattoo is there, you can cast its spell, requiring no material components. The tattoo glows faintly while you cast the spell and for the spell’s duration. Once the spell ends, the tattoo vanishes from your skin.

The level of the spell in the tattoo determines the spell’s saving throw DC, attack bonus, spellcasting ability modifier, and the tattoo’s rarity, as shown in the Spellwrought Tattoo table.

Antagonize Enchantment 3, Range 30 ft., Duration instantaneous
You whisper magical words that antagonize one creature of your choice within range. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 4d4 psychic damage and must immediately use its reaction to make a melee attack against another creature of your choice that you can see. If the target can’t make this attack (for example, because there is no one within its reach or because its reaction is unavailable), the target instead has disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes before the start of your next turn. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage only.

Spells. The staff has 10 charges. While holding it, you can expend the requisite number of charges to cast one of the following spells from the staff: mage armor (1 charge) or shield (2 charges). The staff regains 1d6 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the staff’s last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the staff shatters and is destroyed.

Strange Material. Pulled from the ruins of the extractor staff assembly, this slender, hollow staff is made of sharp, jagged obsidian, yet does not cut your hands when you hold it. It weighs 3 pounds.
