Wooden

This bright yellow pearl is set in a ring of black iron and glows with a warm, yellow light. The ring has been fashioned into the shape of a serpent that twists around its wearer’s finger with the pearl clutched in its mouth. While attuned to the pearl, the wearer’s dreams are consumed by a pair of yellow, serpentine eyes staring from fathomless darkness.

This hat has 3 charges. While holding the hat, you can use an action to expend 1 of its charges and speak a command word that summons your choice of a bat, a frog, or a rat. The summoned creature magically appears in the hat and tries to get away from you as quickly as possible. The creature is neither friendly nor hostile, and it isn't under your control. It behaves as an ordinary creature of its kind and disappears after 1 hour or when it drops to 0 hit points. The hat regains all expended charges daily at dawn.

Made from the branch of a Gulthias tree (see the blights entry of the Monster Manual), a Gulthias staff is a spongy, black length of wood. Its evil makes beasts visibly uncomfortable while within 30 feet of it. The staff has 10 charges and regains 1d6+4 of its expended charges daily at dusk.

If the staff is broken or burned to ashes, its wood releases a terrible, inhuman scream that can be heard out to a range of 300 feet. All blights that can hear the scream immediately wither and die.

Vampiric Strike. The staff can be wielded as a magic quarterstaff. On a hit, it deals damage as a normal quarterstaff, and you can expend 1 charge to regain a number of hit points equal to the damage dealt by the weapon. Each time a charge is spent, red blood oozes from the staff's pores, and you must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or be afflicted with short term madness (see "Madness" in chapter 8 of the Dungeon Master's Guide).

Blight Bane. While you are attuned to the staff, blights and other evil plant creatures don't regard you as hostile unless you harm them.

The green-tinted lenses of these goggles are set in frames of platinum and jade and held in place with a broad strap of matte-black leather. When worn, the wearer finds their sense of smell unusually strong, and living creatures they can see are visualized in varying shades of blues, reds, and yellows that correspond to their body’s natural heat.

A longsword with a dragon-shaped hilt. The sword has a minor magical property: its bearer gains the ability to speak and understand the Draconic language.

You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.

A yklwa (pronounced YICK-ul-wah) is a simple melee weapon that is the traditional weapon of Chultan warriors. A yklwa consists of a 3-foot wooden shaft with a steel or stone blade up to 18 inches long. Although it has the thrown weapon property, the yklwa is not well balanced for throwing.

Thrown. If a weapon has the thrown property, you can throw the weapon to make a ranged attack. If the weapon is a melee weapon, you use the same ability modifier for that attack roll and damage roll that you would use for a melee attack with the weapon. For example, if you throw a handaxe, you use your Strength, but if you throw a dagger, you can use either your Strength or your Dexterity, since the dagger has the finesse property.

This thick wand is made of polished steel with a weapon-like pommel, and can be wielded in combat like a mace.

This wand is made of what appears to be the skeletal finger of some unusually-large humanoid. When wielded, it occasionally flexes and twitches.

This armor is made of thin plates of rune-engraved stone. While worn, the wearer becomes proficient in the Dwarven language.

This item has been meticulously trimmed and tended to in such a way that it appears to be a smaller version of one of the immense jungle trees in Chult. The staff’s creator even went so far as to create a small diorama of what looks like a tiny village in the upper reaches of the staff’s branches—complete with tiny, string bridges connecting tiny, straw houses.

This suit of plate armor is fashioned from giant scorpion chitin. While wearing this armor, you gain the following benefits:

• The armor improves your combat readiness, granting you a +5 bonus to initiative as long as you aren't incapacitated.
• The armor doesn't impose disadvantage on your Dexterity (Stealth) checks.
• The armor doesn't impose disadvantage on saving throws made to resist the effects of extreme heat (see chapter 5 of the Dungeon Master's Guide).

Curse. This armor is cursed. Whenever you don or doff it, you must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 100 (10d10+45) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Only a wish spell can remove the armor's curse.

This rope is fashioned from a 30-foot length of wilted, thorny vine. Upon entangling a creature that isn’t undead or a construct, the thorns dig into its target’s flesh and appear to feed—the vine grows green, its leaves become full and vibrant, and colorful, aromatic flowers blossom along its length.

The ring contains the following spells:

Destroying the Mirror

If the mirror is destroyed, all creatures trapped within it are released at once. Rather than running combat with so many creatures, assume that only the invisible stalker and the troll attack the party initially. The other creatures react to their liberation by turning on one another or running away, as follows:

• Lukanu and Zaal attack the gargoyle, destroying it in 4 rounds, and then help the characters deal with the invisible stalker and the troll.
• The stirge attacks A'tan, killing him in 1 round. After draining A'tan's blood, the stirge flies away to digest its meal.
• The doppelganger tries to flee but doesn't go far, hoping that the characters survive and returning to thank them if they prevail.
• Tlad Xolbrys uses his magic to help the characters unless it looks like they're near defeat, whereupon the drow turns against them.

This wooden mask is shaped in the likeness of a beast's visage and has 3 charges. While wearing the mask you can expend 1 charge and use the mask to cast the animal friendship spell as an action. The mask regains all expended charges at dawn.

This sealskin suit is embroidered with octopuses that squirm magically when exposed to air. If worn underwater, the wearer gains advantage on checks made to escape grappling.
