I like it. I'll accept it. And I'll cast my vote for it

Content Catalog Guidance:
Acererak’s Hoard. Under the treasure subheading on page 227 of TYP, replace “(except that none can be of legendary rarity)” with: “(except all items must be located on magic item tables F, G, or H, and uncommon, rare, or very rare, and may include up to one manual or tome—it seems that the demilich’s library has long ago rotted away)”.

Planar Studies. With the alhoon's unique plane available for study, those interested in its creation can spend time studying it and learn its secrets. By spending 50 downtime days, a character can do one of the following to a demiplane they have created. Each effect can be given used multiple times, costing 50 downtime days per use. Each individual demiplane that you control can receive each of the following effects once.

• Hide one created demiplane, making other spellcasters unable to enter the chosen demiplane without explicit permission. This can take the form of a key, object, pass-phrase, or other way to authenticate.

• Connect one demiplane with another chosen demiplane that they control. This allows easy access to the connected demiplanes without the need to cast demiplane multiple times.

A Merciful Soul. After seeing and hearing the plight of the alhoon Berach, you have decided that sparing its life so that it may spend its last year hunting for peace was the correct decision. Whether this will be the correct decision in the future has yet to be determined…

Periapt of Mind Trapping.

Dream Whirl (+3 Lance). This alabaster lance, named "Dream Whirl" by those who created it, is carved with deep swirling patterns that seem to move with you, calming your emotions and silencing surface thoughts.

Also, the original owner's dreams and anger still dwell within the lance. When within 120 feet of an illithid (mind flayer), its kin, or any of its creations, righteous fury radiates from the lance as it darkens into deep blood crimson.

Otherwise it functions as a +3 lance. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

Trinket: An old divination card bearing your likeness.

Trinket: A diary written in a language you don’t know.

Nine Lives Stealer Scimitar. Weapon (scimitar), very rare (requires attunement). You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. The sword has 9 charges. If you score a critical hit against a creature that has fewer than 100 hit points, it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be slain instantly as the sword tears its life force from its body (a construct or an undead is immune). The sword loses 1 charge if the creature is also slain. When the sword has no charges remaining, it loses this property. The hilt of this weapon is covered with carved, ancient Rellanic runes that seem to comprise nonsensical words or, possibly, a list of proper names. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

The Ecology of the Tarrasque. Your research on the tarrasque grants you an encyclopedic knowledge of the history and lore of this creature. This award may have additional repercussions in future QCC modules.

Membership in the Royal Order of Tarrasque Herders. Dryearth has offered you membership in the Order if you swear an oath to come to need of any civilized people threatened upon the return of the true tarrasque. This award may have additional repercussions in future QCC modules.

Run Away and Join the Circus. You spend some time traveling with the circus as a performer until the start of your next adventure. You learn quite a bit about the inner workings of the circus during this time. This award may have additional repercussions in future QCC modules.

Honorary Bullywug. For helping to free their god from the bonds of oppression, a bullywug tribe of Chult owes you a lifedebt. Should you ever find yourself in the presence of this bullywug tribe in Chult during a future QCC adventure, you will be treated as an ally. Should you ever willingly kill a froghemoth while in Chult or in the presence of a bullywug, this story award is lost.

Tome of Leadership and Influence. Wondrous item, very rare. The red leather that covers this tome is embossed with a smiling man with a third eye. This book contains guidelines for influencing and charming others, and its words are charged with magic. If you spend 48 hours over a period of 6 days or fewer studying the book’s contents and practicing its guidelines, your Charisma score increases by 2, as does your maximum for that score. The manual then loses its magic, but regains it in a century. A description of this item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide (pg. 208).

Nature of the Weave. You have uncovered a series of tomes written by the archmage, Manshoon. By spending 50 downtime days, you gain proficiency in the Arcana skill. If you are already proficient in Arcana, you double your proficiency when making checks with the skill.

(added an extra 20 DT from applying a DM reward)

Belt of Storm Giant Strength. Wondrous Item, Legendary. While wearing this belt, your Strength score changes to a score granted by the belt (29). If your Strength is already equal to or greater than the belt's score, the item has no effect on you. Six varieties of this belt exist, corresponding with and having rarity according to the six kinds of true giants. The belt of stone giant strength and the belt of frost giant strength look different, but they have the same effect. The storm giant quintessent Dessa imbued this belt with her elemental strength. When the belt’s fantastic strength is used lightning dances around the wearer while a warm desert wind blows in the area. This item can be found in the Dungeon Masters Guide.

Hall of Omens. Characters can spend time in the Hall of Omens learning about signs and portents. A wizard of the school of divination may spend 200 downtime days to gain 1 additional portent dice. Any other character may spend 50 downtime days to gain 3 Luck Points and may use them as the Lucky feat. Once the 3 Luck Points are spent they are not regained.

Death's End. You helped defeat Kiaransalee’s cult of Undying Might and prevented many Death Giants from being created and used by Kiaransalee. (See the D&D Epic DDEP06-03 Hecatomb).

Vorpal Sword. Weapon (scimitar), legendary (requires attunement). You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. In addition, the weapon ignores resistance to slashing damage.

When you attack a creature that has at least one head with this weapon and roll a 20 on the attack roll, you cut off one of the creature's heads. The creature dies if it can't survive without the lost head. A creature is immune to this effect if it’s immune to slashing damage, doesn't have or need a head, has legendary actions, or the DM decides that the creature is too big for its head to be cut off with this weapon. Such a creature instead takes an extra 6d8 slashing damage from the hit.

This blade now hums and vibrates with great energy, and slices through obstacles with the greatest of ease. If the sword does not claim the life of a sentient creature each day, you find that are easily angered and become frustrated by even the smallest obstacles. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

The Opal Pendant. You captured part of the Soulmonger’s energy within a magical opal pendant taken from a Red Wizard of Thay. At some point in the future, you and your allies will need to deal with this nefarious device permanently. Perhaps this will aid you when you do.
