rare
SJ-DC-ECHO-01 Starfall
Show
Notes:
This brass disc of articulated, concentric rings unfolds into an armillary sphere. As a bonus action, you can unfold it into the sphere or back into a disc. When found, it contains the following spells, which are wizard pells for you while you are attuned to it: augury, divination, find the path, foresight, locate creature, and ocate object. It functions as a spellbook for you, with spells encoded on the rings.
While you are holding the archive, you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your wizard spells.
The archive has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. You can use the charges in the following ways while holding it:
If you spend 1 minute studying the archive, you can expend 1 charge to replace one of your prepared wizard spells with a different spell in the archive. The new spell must be of the divination school.
When a creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to expend 1 charge and force the creature to roll a d4 and apply the number rolled as a bonus or penalty (your choice) to the original roll. You can do this after you see the roll but before its effects are applied.
This item is found in the Dungeon Masters Guide.
Created by the astral elves of the Paradise Moon, the leaves of the Golden Apple are made of brilliantly colored crystals, grown in the Crystal Grove of the Hesperides Temple. So that the adventurers may carry the Song of the Hesperides with them wherever they travel, whenever spells are cast through the item, its crystal leaves resonate against one another, ‘echoing’ a tiny portion of the ancient song back to its wielder.
Song Craft. Whenever this item is struck or is used to strike a foe, its bearer hears a fragment of an ancient song.

An instrument of the bards is an exquisite example of its kind, superior to an ordinary instrument in every way. Seven types of these instruments exist, each named after a legendary bard college.

A creature that attempts to play the instrument without being attuned to it must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or take 2d4 psychic damage.
You can use an action to play the instrument and cast one of its spells. Once the instrument has been used to cast a spell, it can’t be used to cast that spell again until the next dawn. The spells use your spellcasting ability and spell save DC.
