Paper Bird. Wondrous item, uncommon. After you write a message of fifty words or fewer on this magic sheet of parchment and speak a creature's name, the parchment magically folds into a paper bird and flies to the recipient whose name you uttered. The recipient must be on the same plane of existence as you, otherwise the bird turns into ash as it takes flight. It travels to within 5 feet of its intended recipient by the most direct route, whereupon it turns into a nonmagical and inanimate sheet of parchment that can be unfolded only by the intended recipient. If the bird's hit points or speed is reduced to 0 or if it is otherwise immobilized, it turns into ash. Paper birds usually come in small, flat boxes containing 1d6 + 3 sheets of the parchment.

Arrow Catching Shield

Staff of the Woodlands. Weapon (quarterstaff), rare (requires attunement by a druid). 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 item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

Unlock: Paper Bird (x2)

Unlock: Cracked Driftglobe. Wondrous item, uncommon. This small sphere of thick glass weighs 1 pound. If you are within 60 feet of it, you can speak its command word and cause it to emanate the light or daylight spell. Once used, the daylight effect can't be used again until the next dawn. You can speak another command word as an action to make the illuminated globe rise into the air and float no more than 5 feet off the ground. The globe hovers in this way until you or another creature grasps it. If you move more than 60 feet from the hovering globe, it follows you until it is within 60 feet of you. It takes the shortest route to do so. If prevented from moving, the globe sinks gently to the ground and becomes inactive, and its light winks out.

Unlock: Cracked Wand of Magic Missiles. Wand, uncommon. This wand has 7 charges. While holding it, you can use an action to expend 1 or more of its charges to cast the magic missile spell from it. For 1 charge, you cast the 1st-level version of the spell. You can increase the spell slot level by one for each additional charge you expend. The wand regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn.

Unlock: Ring of Spell Storing. Ring, Rare, Major. Requires Attunement. This ring stores spells cast into it, holding them until the attuned wearer uses them.

Any creature can cast a spell of 1st through 5th level into the ring by touching the ring as the spell is cast. The spell has no effect, other than to be stored in the ring. If the ring can't hold the spell, the spell is expended without effect. The level of the slot used to cast the spell determines how much space it uses. While wearing this ring, you can cast any spell stored in it. The spell uses the slot level, spell save DC, spell attack bonus, and spellcasting ability of the original caster, but is otherwise treated as if you cast the spell. The spell cast from the ring is no longer stored in it, freeing up space.

Weave (Helm of Teleportation). Wondrous Item, rare (Requires Attunement). The helm called “Weave” once belonged to the drow mage Axcelia Axcelon. It is crafted out of mithral and fashioned into the shape of a spider. When held to the back of the wearer’s head, eight thin spidery legs extend and wrap around the head and face of the wearer to form the helmet. The feel of the legs over skin is soft and silken – a sensation that is both comfortable and extremely unsettling to the unaccustomed wearer. A worshipper of Lolth would pause in envy and awe at the sight of such fine workmanship. When the helmet is used, all those being transported hear the words “Across the weave” whispered softly in undercommon. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.
