Magic Items

Armor (scale mail), rare This suite of scale mail armor is fashioned out of slivers of wood—each engraved with Giant runes of death and lament, and sewn onto a backing of black leather. The armor resizes to fit its wearer. You have a +1 bonus to AC while wearing this armor.

Armor (shield), very rare (requires attunement)
This shield is made from the scale of an ancient white dragon. It has a rune burned into its outward-facing side. A character who examines the rune and succeeds on a DC 20 Intelligence (History) check recognizes it as an uven (“enemy” in Giant) rune that confers great power.

While holding the shield, you benefit from the following properties.

Winter’s Friend. You are immune to cold damage.

Deadly Rebuke. Immediately after a creature hits you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to deal 3d6 necrotic damage to that creature.

Bane. You can cast the bane spell from the shield (save DC 17). The spell does not require concentration and lasts for 1 minute. Once you cast the spell from the shield, you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

Gift of Vengeance. You can transfer the shield’s magic to a nonmagical weapon by tracing the uven rune on the weapon with one finger. The transfer takes 8 hours of work that requires the two items to be within 5 feet of each other. At the end, the shield is destroyed, and the rune is etched or burned into the chosen weapon. This weapon becomes a rare magic item that requires attunement. It has the properties of a +1 weapon. The bonus increases to +3 when the weapon is used against one of the following creature types, chosen by you at the time of the magic weapon’s creation: aberrations, celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, giants, or undead.

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.

Armor (Shield), Very Rare
This shield is made of Iskirthos darksteel. The bearer can speak and understand Old Iskirthos language.
While holding this shield, you have a +3 bonus to AC. This bonus is an addition to the shield's normal bonus to AC.

This shield is elegant and wicked in equal parts; the bloodsoaked wood backing of the shield preserves the final terror of heroes slain by the shield's previous owner, while ornate metal of Thayan design on the front of the shield has been forged from the blades of defeated adventurers. When listening carefully to the shield in a quiet environment, one can still hear their screams.

Wondrous Item, Very Rare (Requires Attunement) A black opal pendant hangs at the base of this pearlescent chain. The sacred rune is inscribed on the back of the pendant. While wearing this item, you have resistance to necrotic damage. Additionally, you can cast the Spare the Dying cantrip using either an action or a bonus action.

Invoking the Rune. When a creature you can see within 60 feet of you is reduced to 0 hit points as a result of taking damage, you can use your reaction to invoke the item’s rune, causing the pendant to flash with pale light. The creature then instead drops to 1 hit point.

Once the rune has been invoked, it can’t be invoked again until the next dawn.

While holding this rod, you can use an action to activate it. The rod then instantly transports you and up to 199 other willing creatures you can see to a paradise that exists in an extraplanar space. You choose the form that the paradise takes. It could be a tranquil garden, lovely glade, cheery tavern, immense palace, tropical island, fantastic carnival, or whatever else you can imagine. Regardless of its nature, the paradise contains enough water and food to sustain its visitors. Everything else that can be interacted with inside the extraplanar space can exist only there. For example, a flower picked from a garden in the paradise disappears if it is taken outside the extraplanar space. For each hour spent in the paradise, a visitor regains hit points as if it had spent 1 Hit Die. Also, creatures don't age while in the paradise, although time passes normally. Visitors can remain in the paradise for up to 200 days divided by the number of creatures present (round down). When the time runs out or you use an action to end it, all visitors reappear in the location they occupied when you activated the rod, or an unoccupied space nearest that location. The rod can't be used again until ten days have passed. Guardian: You gain a +2 bonus to initiative rolls

Ring, uncommon
A cobalt blue metal band with an internal ring that spins freely, though the arcane rune always settles above the finger rather than below.

While wearing this ring, you can stand on and move across any liquid surface as if it were solid ground.
