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)”.

Belt of Fire Giant Strength. Wondrous Item, very rare (requires attunement). This belt is made from plates of steel embossed with golden filigree connected by metal pins. A fire giants face adorns the buckle. The giant appears to be having a hearty laugh as she wears an enormous smile on her face. While wearing this belt, your Strength score changes to 25. The item has no effect on you if your Strength without the belt is equal to or greater than 25.

Love's Bite (Nine Lives Stealer). Weapon (longsword), very rare (requires attunement). The blade of this elegantly-curved longsword is fashioned of silvery-blue steel gilt in gold. A strip of delicate paper hangs from the pommel, upon which is inscribed a breathtakingly beautiful poem. When the wielder scores a critical hit with the weapon, its heart is filled with the agonizing ache of spurned love.

Staff of Thunder and Lightning. Staff, very rare (requires attunement). This aspen staff shines brightly in direct light, The staff is almost perfectly smooth with a crown of silver lightning bolts atop it which cradle gleaming sapphire.

Staff of Striking. Staff, very rare (requires attunement). This staff appears wholly unexceptional. The wood haft is gnarled and irregular, and the thin strip of leather wrapped around its midpoint is frayed and cracked. When rapidly spun in the hands of a skilled user, the staff creates a buzzing drone audible to all within 100 feet. If spun for more than a few moments, the drone turns into a sonorous, chanted prayer to Ubtao.

Part 3: The Innkeeper

Mission 1. Beneath the Hills

Eyes of the Eagle. Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement). These crystal lenses fit over the eyes. While wearing them, you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight. In conditions of clear visibility, you can make out details of even extremely distant creatures and objects as small as 2 feet across. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide. These goggles are made of leather and have lenses of dark red crystal. Their frame is emblazoned with the emblem of the Hellriders: a horse’s head superimposed upon a sunburst. Additionally, when looking through these goggles, tiny illusory flames can be seen dancing around the edges of the lenses when within 120 feet of a demon.

1. First Weapon Returned. Max gold for their level for each character in the party, and each character may choose five rare consumables (following normal rules for the number of pieces of magical ammunition). A character could, for example, choose 2 potions of superior healing, 2 spells scroll of greater restoration, and 1d6 +2 crossbow bolts.

2. Second Weapon Returned. Each character may choose one of the following items: arrow catching shield, bracers of defense, canaith mandolin, necklace of prayer beads (with six beads), staff of the woodlands, +2 wand of the war mage, or a +2 weapon.

3. Third Weapon Returned. Each character receives either a blessing of protection or a blessing of weapon enhancement (player choice) and when the character gains 17th level can claim one of these legendary items for their own use subject to the MIL restrictions.

Cloak of Displacement. Wondrous Item, rare (requires attunement). While you wear this cloak, it projects an illusion that makes you appear to be standing in a place near your actual location, causing any creature to have disadvantage on attack rolls against you. If you take damage, the property ceases to function until the start of your next turn. This property is suppressed while you are incapacitated, restrained, or otherwise unable to move. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

This cloak is made of the pelt of a smooth, blackfurred creature. A bone toggle fastens the cloak around its wearer’s neck. Close examination of the gold-embroidered hem reveals a poem that reads (in Common): “Six men in pain; six men rent. Blood, it falls like rain; broken bodies bent. Six men plead; and six men cry; Tearing arm and leg, six men die.”
