DDHC-TYP - Tomb of Horrors
Show
Notes:
Weapon (spear or javelin), very rare (requires attunement)
You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. When you throw it, its normal and long ranges both increase by 30 feet, and it deals one extra die of damage on a hit. After you throw it and it hits or misses, it flies back to your hand immediately.
Curse. This weapon is cursed, and becoming attuned to it extends the curse to you. Until the curse is broken with remove curse or similar magic, you are unwilling to part with the weapon, keeping it within reach at all times. In addition, you have disadvantage on attack rolls made with weapons other than this one.
Whenever you roll a 1 on an attack roll using this weapon, the weapon bends or flies to hit you in the back. Make a new attack roll with advantage against your own AC. If the result is a hit, you take damage as if you had attacked yourself with the spear.

DDHC-TYP - Tomb of Horrors

Notes:

The staff has 20 charges for the following properties. The staff regains 2d8 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the staff retains its +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls but loses all other properties. On a 20, the staff regains 1d8 + 2 charges.
Power Strike. When you hit with a melee attack using the staff, you can expend 1 charge to deal an extra 1d6 force damage to the target.
Spells. While holding this staff, you can use an action to expend 1 or more of its charges to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC and spell attack bonus: cone of cold (5 charges), fireball (5th-level version, 5 charges), globe of invulnerability (6 charges), hold monster (5 charges), levitate (2 charges), lightning bolt (5th-level version, 5 charges), magic missile (1 charge), ray of enfeeblement (1 charge), or wall of force (5 charges).
Retributive Strike. You can use an action to break the staff over your knee or against a solid surface, performing a retributive strike. The staff is destroyed and releases its remaining magic in an explosion that expands to fill a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on it.
You have a 50 percent chance to instantly travel to a random plane of existence, avoiding the explosion. If you fail to avoid the effect, you take force damage equal to 16 × the number of charges in the staff. Every other creature in the area must make a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes an amount of damage based on how far away it is from the point of origin, as shown in the following table. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage
Distance from Origin Damage
10 ft. away or closer 8 x the number of charges in the staff
11 to 20 ft. away 6 x the number of charges in the staff
21 to 30 ft. away 4 x the number of charges in the staff.

G
CCC-GHC-BK1-03 - The Darkest Knight v1.2
Show
Notes:
Rod, (requires attunement)
Made by the drow, this rod is a magic weapon that ends in three rubbery tentacles. While holding the rod, you can use an action to direct each tentacle to attack a creature you can see within 15 feet of you.

The Mind Fortress (ring of mind shielding)
uncommon
C
CCC-GHC-BK2-06_Eye_of_Darkness_Heart_of_Light
Show
Notes:
Wondrous item, Ring, uncommon (requires attunement)
While wearing this ring, you are immune to magic that allows other creatures to read your thoughts, determine whether you are lying, know your Alignment, or know your Creature Type. Creatures can telepathically communicate with you only if you allow it.
You can use an action to cause the ring to become Invisible until you use another action to make it visible, until you remove the ring, or until you die.
If you die while wearing the ring, your soul enters it, unless it already houses a soul. You can remain in the ring or depart for The Afterlife. As long as your soul is in the ring, you can telepathically communicate with any creature wearing it. A wearer can’t prevent this Telepathic Communication.
Flavour:
The Mind Fortress is the remnants of an extradimensional location that served as the site of a ritual enacted by the alchemist Ravinan. Ravinan divided three aspects of his psyche, in an attempt to purify his soul, and collapsed this evil into a stone called the Eye of Darkness. The Mind Fortress then served as the extradimensional home for the stone until liberated by adventurers. After the stone was removed, the Mind Fortress shrank to a less-potent but still useful magical item.
The Mind Fortress functions in all ways as a ring of mind shielding. The Mind Fortress still contains two portions of Rhys’s psyche (his center for rational thought, as well as his conscience). These mental remnants do not count as an actual soul for purposes of the ring, nor do they cause the Mind Fortress to act as an intelligent item.
However, a DM might choose to have these aspects of Rhys’s psyche may affect the emotional state of the wearer or interact with the wearer during a dream or trance state. The Mind Fortress’s form is still highly mutable. 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.This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.
