HISTORY
From 1340 to 1385 DR, Lord Mattus Althorin ruled a small fiefdom in the Border Kingdoms near the Lake of Steam. Lord Althorin ran his council and maintained peace in his lands with the assistance of the Knights of the Holy Judgement, an order of paladins who emphasize the "lawful" part of their dedication to Tyr.
To dispense Tyr’s most brutal judgements, Lord Althorin commissioned the creation of a magical greatsword, which he dubbed “Tyr’s Justice”. During his rule, several different paladins belonging to the Order of the Knights of Holy Judgement claimed the headman’s sword as their own. When the Spellplague ravaged Toril in the Year of Blue Fire, the Border Kingdoms devolved into a lawless frontier of outlaws and would-be rulers, and the sword was lost for nearly a century. It later resurfaced in the Moonsea region.
Other than the balanced scales of Try’s holy symbol etched into its blade, the sword is intentionally simple in appearance, mirroring Lord Althorin’s predominant belief: “Justice is not pretentious or vain. It is simple and true, and the right of every man, woman, and child, no matter how rich, poor, educated, or ignorant they may be.”
GLORY BE TO YOU ALMIGHTY LORD OF JUSTICE.
IN YOU, LORD, I PUT MY TRUST;
MAY I NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME.
IN YOUR JUSTICE, SET ME FREE,
TURN YOUR EAR TO ME; MAKE HASTE TO RESCUE ME.
BE MY RAMPART, MY FORTIFICATION; KEEP ME SAFE.
FOR YOU ARE MY STRENGTH AND MY REFUGE,
I KNOW YOU WILL HELP ME.
INTO YOUR HANDS, I COMMEND MY SPIRIT:
YOU HAVE REDEEMED ME, LORD GOD OF JUSTICE.

The cover of this iron-bound book is scribed with many swirling tentacles. A character carrying the book is always aware of eyes from a distant realm following them.

This thick leather-bound volume has a desiccated tongue pinned to the front cover. Five of these tomes exist, and it's unknown which one is the original. The grisly cover decoration on the first tome of the stilled tongue once belonged to a treacherous former servant of the lich-god Vecna, keeper of secrets. The tongues pinned to the covers of the four copies came from other spellcasters who crossed Vecna. The first few pages of each tome are filled with indecipherable scrawls. The remaining pages are blank and pristine.
If you can attune to this item, you can use it as a spellbook and an arcane focus. In addition, while holding the tome, you can use a bonus action to cast a spell you have written in this tome, without expending a spell slot or using any verbal or somatic components. Once used, this property of the tome can't be used again until the next dawn.
While attuned to the book, you can remove the tongue from the book's cover. If you do so, all spells written in the book are permanently erased. This specific tome belongs to Szass Tam, leader of The Red Wizards of Thay. He watches anyone using this tome and can also write cryptic messages in the book. These messages appear at midnight and fade away after they are read.
This item can be found in the Dungeon Master's Guide.

This item is a 1-inch cube of compacted slime secreted by Baalzebal when he was in slug form. The slime cube emits a terrible stench when held close to the nose.

You have wrested away part of Szass Tam’s essence. Specifically, this spark of energy was originally wrested from the vile lich himself, and grants one dditional 9th level spell slot, provided that you already have one. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide under the entry for Boon of High Magic.

This staff has 3 charges and regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn.
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 deal an extra 2d10 necrotic damage to the target. In addition, the target must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or have disadvantage for 1 hour on any ability check or saving throw that uses Strength or Constitution.

This great ashen staff is etched with many designs of swirling air and clouds. The staff magically resizes to fit the hand of any who carry it.

Armor (shield), very rare (requires attunement)
This steel shield is embossed with a longsword wrapped in thorny vines which end in roses in full bloom. The enamel coloring the roses is still vibrant.
While holding this shield, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects, and spell attacks have disadvantage against you.

Formed from the severed tentacle of a powerful star spawn, this rod plagues its wielder with dreams of alien creatures that beckon them to travel deep within the Thunder Peaks, where something patiently awaits their arrival. While holding this rod, you gain a +3 bonus to spell attack rolls and to the saving throw DCs of your warlock spells. In addition, you can regain 1 warlock spell slot as an action while holding the rod. You can’t use this property again until you finish a long rest.

Ring, rare (requires attunement)
This ring has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. While wearing the ring, you can use an action to expend 1 to 3 of its charges to attack one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The ring produces a spectral ram's head and makes its attack roll with a +7 bonus. On a hit, for each charge you spend, the target takes 2d10 force damage and is pushed 5 feet away from you.
Alternatively, you can expend 1 to 3 of the ring's charges as an action to try to break an object you can see within 60 feet of you that isn't being worn or carried. The ring makes a Strength check with a +5 bonus for each charge you spend.
Crafted of cold iron and fashiong with the likeness of a jutting fist, this ring is always slightly cold to the touch. You have an itching desire to break small, fragile objects while wearing the ring.

The ring appears to be made of smooth gray wooden thorny vines in the loop. A piece of moonstone forms the center of the ring. When the ring's magic is activated, the wearer feels a harmless flash of pain as if his finger is pierced by a thorn - a drop of blood as payment to the Earthmother.
