Wondrous Items

This is a catch-all category for anything that isn't a ring, staff, rod, weapon, et cetera. Anyone can use a wondrous item (unless specified otherwise in the description).

Physical Description: Varies.

Activation: Usually uses activated or command word, but details vary from item to item.

Wondrous items can be configured to do just about anything from create a breeze to improve ability scores. Many standard (and non-standard) wondrous items are described below.

General

Amulet of Fortune Prevailing

Blessed by ancient gods of luck, this amulet allows its wearer to change his fortune. Once per day, after the amulet's wearer attempts a saving throw (but before it's determined whether the save succeeded), he may choose to reroll the saving throw. He must use the second result even if it's lower. The wearer can't use this ability if he has already rerolled the saving throw because of another ability he possesses nor can he use another ability he possesses to reroll the saving throw a second time. The amulet can be used only after it is worn continuously for 24 hours. If it is taken off, it becomes inactive until it is again donned and worn for a full 24 hours.

Amulet of Health

This amulet is a golden disk on a chain. It usually bears the image of a lion or other powerful animal. The amulet grants the wearer an enhancement bonus to Constitution of +2, +4, or +6.

Amulet of Light

Long ago, these simple sunburst pendants were given to the order's front-line soldiers to aid in the destruction of their undead foes and to prevent their comrades from rising as undead even as they fell. Each of these pendants radiates a continual consecrate effect, as the spell.

Amulet of Natural Armor

This amulet, usually crafted from bone or beast scales, roughens the wearer's body and flesh, giving him a natural armor bonus to his AC of from +1 to +5, depending on the type of amulet.

Amulet of Proof against Detection and Location

This silver amulet protects the wearer from scrying and magical location just as a nondetection spell does. If a divination is attempted against the wearer, the caster of the divination must succeed at a caster level check (1d20 + caster level) against a DC of 19 (as if the caster had cast nondetection on herself).

Amulet of the Planes

This strange device usually appears to be a black circular amulet, although any character looking closely at it sees a dark, moving swirl of color. The amulet allows its wearer to utilize plane shift. However this is a difficult item to master. The user must make an Intelligence check (DC 15) in order to get the amulet to take her to the plane (and the specific location on that plane) that she wants. If she fails, the amulet transports her and all those traveling with her to a random location on that plane (a 01-60 result on d%) or to a random plane (61-100).

Amulet of The Silent Word

Spells such as alarm, fire trap, and glyph of warding, respond to verbal passwords. But how can a guard speak the password without revealing it to her prisoners? The amulet of the silent word allows the wearer to affect these wards without speaking. As a free action, the wearer thinks of the password and the amulet causes the thought to have the same effect as if she had spoken it. The wearer must know the location of the ensorcelled object or area. The amulet has a range of 110 feet, provided the wearer has a clear line of sight to the target.

Amulet of the Twelve Moons (Eberron)

A complete version of this potent artifact bears twelve precious or semiprecious stones - one corresponding to each of Eberron's moons. The origin of these enigmatic items of power remain steeped in debate. Many claim the first amulet was created during the War of the Mark as a means of uniting the fractured dragonmarked races. Shifter sages insist that Zev Jhaxos or one of his disciples received the first such amulet as a gift from the gods. Regardless of the amulets' true origin, none of the few known examples today bear all twelve stones. Each specific magic stone grants you a different magical power, and all stones act concurrently upon you when you wear the amulet. In addition to its gems' many gifts, the amulet of the twelve moons grants a +2 enhancement bonus on all attack and damage rolls made by unarmed strikes and natural weapons. With all twelve stones attached, this bonus increases to +5. The stones of power and the moons they represent are as follows.

Apparatus of Kwalish

This item appears to be a large, sealed iron barrel, but it has a secret catch (Search DC 20 to locate) that opens a hatch in one end. Anyone who crawls inside finds ten (unlabeled) levers:

Lever (1d10)Lever Function
1Extend/retract legs and tail
2Uncover/cover forward porthole
3Uncover/cover side portholes
4Extend/retract pincers and feelers
5Snap pincers
6Move forward/backward
7Turn left/right
8Open "eyes" with continual flame inside/close "eyes"
9Rise/sink in water
10Open/close hatch

The device has the following characteristics:

Speed:Forward 10 ft., backward 20 ft.
AC20 (-1 size, 11 natural)
Hit Points:200
Attacks:2 pincers, +12 melee
Damage:2d8 each
Special Qualities:Hardness 15

Operating a lever is a full-round action, and no lever maybe operated more than once per round. However, since two Medium-size characters can fit inside, the apparatus can move and attack in the same round. The device can function in water up to 900 feet deep. It holds enough air for a crew of two to survive 1d4+1 hours (twice as long for a single occupant). When activated, the apparatus looks something like a giant lobster.

Ark of Forced Return

This 200-pound gilded box has a fiery glyph suspended a few feet above its surface. An ark of forced return is generally carried by four bearers - one at each comer, with the ark itself taking up a square. The ark is sturdy and can be dropped as a free action, but it only functions when activated by four creatures in contact with it at the same time. Activating the ark is a standard action for these four creatures, who must all be divine spellcasters.
If creatures with the extraplanar subtype are within 30 feet of an ark of forced return when it is activated, they must succeed at a Will save (DC 20) or be sent back to their home plane.

Aroma of Curdled Death

This dark, viscous fluid is usually stored in a small stoppered bottle and applied like a perfume. One round after exposure to air, it creates an invisible cloud of poison gas in a 10-foot radius that lasts for 1 minute. The creature wearing the aroma of curdled death is protected from the cloud's effect, but all other exposed creatures with 3 Hit Dice or less die with no save. Creatures with 4 to 6 Hit Dice must succeed on a DC 17 Fortitude save each round they are exposed to the effect or die (taking 1d4 points of Constitution damage on a successful save), and creatures with 6 or more Hit Dice take 1d4 points of Constitution damage (Fortitude DC 17 half). The cloud moves as the creature does.
If the bottle is opened but the liquid within not immediately applied to a creature, the cloud of poison gas that forms spreads to fill only a 5-foot radius, centered on the opened bottle or the place the liquid was poured out. This cloud also lasts for 1 minute.

Aroma of Dreams

This silvery liquid is usually kept in a small bottle and applied like a perfume. One round after exposure to air, it creates an invisible cloud of magical poison gas in a 10-foot radius that lasts for 1 minute. The creature wearing the aroma is not subject to its effect, but other creatures exposed to the gas must make a DC 14 Fortitude save or fall asleep for 1 minute. One round later, exposed creatures (whether already asleep or nor) must make a second DC 14 Fortitude save or fall asleep for 1 hour. Sleeping creatures are helpless. The cloud moves as the creature does.
If the aroma is opened but not immediately applied to a creature, the cloud of poison gas that forms spreads to fill only a 5-foot radius, centered on the opened bottle or the place the liquid was poured out. This cloud also lasts for 1 minute.

Bag of Endless Caltrops

This nondescript leather pouch creates an endless supply of caltrops. The owner can reach into the pouch and pull out handful after handful. It takes one standard action to fill a 5-foot square by hand. If the pouch is dumped out (as a partial action), it produces the equivalent of a 2-pound unit, but does not produce any more caltrops at all for 2 whole rounds.
The caltrops produced are not magical and follow all the rules for normal caltrops.

Bag of Holding

This appears to be a common cloth sack about 2 feet by 4 feet in size. The bag of holding opens into a nondimensional space: Its inside is larger than its outside dimensions. Regardless of what is put into the bag, it weighs a fixed amount. This weight, and the limits in weight and volume of the bag's contents, depend on the bag's type, as shown on the table below:

Bag TypeBag WeightContents Weight LimitContents Volume LimitMarket Price
Bag 115 lb.250 lb.30 cu. ft.2,500 gp
Bag 225 lb.500 lb.70 cu. ft.5,000 gp
Bag 335 lb.1,000 lb.150 cu. ft.7,400 gp
Bag 460 lb.1,500 lb.250 cu. ft.10,000 gp

If the bag is overloaded, or if sharp objects pierce it (from inside or outside), the bag ruptures and is ruined. All contents are lost forever. If a bag of holding is turned inside our, its contents spill out, unharmed, but the bag must be put right before it can be used again. If living creatures are placed within the bag, they can survive for up to 10 minutes, after which time they suffocate. Retrieving a specific item from a bag of holding is a move-equivalent action - unless the bag contains more than an ordinary backpack would hold, in which case retrieving a specific item is a full-round action.
If a bag of holding is placed within a portable hole, a rift to the Astral Plane is torn in the space: Bag and hole alike are sucked into the void and forever lost. If a portable hole is placed within a bag of holding, it opens a gate to the Astral Plane: The hole, the bag, and any creatures within a 10-foot radius are drawn there, destroying the portable hole and bag of holding in the process.

Bag of Tricks

This small sack appears normal and empty. However, anyone reaching into the bag feels a small, fuzzy ball. If the ball is removed and tossed up to 20 feet away, it turns into an animal. The animal serves the character who drew it from the bag for 10 minutes (or until slain or ordered back into the bag), at which point it disappears. There are three drab colors of bags, each producing a different set of animals. Use the following tables to determine what animals can be drawn out of each.

Banner of Valor

Made from bright silks, gold thread, and other flashy materials, the banner of valor bolsters the spirits of all friendly troops that gaze upon it. The banner holder can remove fear at will on chosen creatures within a 20-foot radius. In addition, the holder can produce a healing circle three times a day. All these effects are as the spells from a 9th-level caster.

Bead of Force

This small black sphere appears to be a lusterless pearl. Upon sharp impact, however, the bead explodes, sending forth a burst of force that deals 5d6 points of damage to all creatures within a 10-foot radius. Each victim is allowed a Reflex saving throw (DC 16). Those who fail are then encapsulated in a sphere of force with a radius of 10 feet. Those trapped inside cannot escape except by those methods that can bypass or destroy a wall of force. The sphere persists for 3d6 minutes and then disappears. The explosion completely consumes the bead, making this a one-use item.

Beastfriend Collar

This wide brown leather choker features crude images of an eagle, wolf, cat, and toad. Upon placing the beastfriend collar around your neck, the item grants a +4 competence bonus on Handle Animal and wild empathy checks. If you have an animal companion or familiar, the range of your share spells ability extends to 5 feet per two character levels.

Belt, Monk's

This simple rope belt, when wrapped around a character's waist, confers great ability in unarmed combat. Any time the wearer engages in unarmed combat, the belt grants him the ability to use both hands as though he possessed the Two-Weapon Fighting feat. He may also make a stunning attack (as a monk) once per day. If donned by a monk, the belt grants one additional stunning attack per day and allows the monk to haste herself once per day for up to 10 consecutive rounds.

Belt of Many Pockets

This broad belt seems to be nothing more than a well-made article of clothing, but closer examination reveals eight small pouches along its inner front. In fact, a total of sixty-four extradimensional pouches exist in the belt, with seven more "behind" each of the eight readily apparent ones. Each pouch is similar to a miniature bag of holding, able to contain up to 1 cubic foot of material weighing as much as 10 pounds. In addition, if the wearer has a familiar, any pouch can hold it no matter what its size or weight. The familiar has no need for food, water, or air while inside the pouch, but any other living creature of suitable size placed within a pocket has enough air for only 1 minute, after which it suffocates.
Anything stored in the belt's pockets is effectively weightless and doesn't affect the wearer's carrying capacity so long as the belt is worn around the waist. If removed, the belt weighs one-tenth of the total weight of all the items stored within it.
While worn around the waist, the belt responds to its wearer's desire to extract something (by opening the correct pouch) or store something (by opening an empty pouch). Retrieving a specific item from the pouch is a move action, but doesn't provoke the attacks of opportunity that retrieving a stored item usually does.

Belt of One Mighty Blow

Once per day, as a swift action, the wearer of this belt can activate the belt to gain extra damage on her next melee attack. A light weapon deals an extra 1d8 points of damage, a one-handed weapon deals an extra 2d6 points of damage, and a two-handed weapon deals an extra 3d6 points of damage. The belt can be used only after being worn continuously for 24 hours. If it is taken off, it becomes inactive until it is again donned and worn for a full 24 hours.

Blindfold of True Darkness

This black, silky blindfold grants the blindsight ability with a range of 60 feet (see Special Qualities in the Monster Manual). Because the wearer's eyes are protected, he is also immune to gaze attacks, spells, or effects that rely on sight. Wearing the blindfold takes up the same space as goggles. The wearer cannot use vision in any way while wearing the blindfold.

Blood Rock

Blood rock suffuses an area in which it is placed with the pure essence of war and violence. Sacred to war gods and priests of many evil gods, blood rock causes weapons to strike harder, claws to tear deeper, and blood to flow more freely. Five pounds of blood rock spread over a 1-foot area increases the lethality of any attack made by a creature standing in the area. Larger quantities of blood rock can affect larger areas. Double the threat range of all attacks made within an area affected by blood rock. A creature must be touching the ground in the blood-rock-enhanced area in order to gain this benefit. This increase in threat range does not stack with the increased threat range from the Improved Critical feat, the keen edge spell, or from the keen weapon quality. Simply carrying 5 pounds of blood rock around is not enough to gain the benefits of its presence. Blood rock must be placed in an area for a period of at least 48 hours before its presence is powerful enough to affect the area. Once placed, blood rock can be gathered up and placed in a new area. The new area still requires 48 hours for the effects of the blood rock to take hold.

Boat, Folding

A folding boat looks like a small wooden box about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 6 inches deep. It can be used to store items like any other box. If a command word is given, however, the box unfolds itself to form a boat 10 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 2 feet in depth. A second (different) command word causes it to unfold to a ship 24 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 6 feet deep. Any objects formerly stored in the box now rest in the bottom of the boat or ship.
In its smaller form, the boat has one pair of oars, an anchor, a mast, and a lateen sail. In its larger form, the boat has a deck, single rowing seats, five sets of oars, a steering oar, an anchor, a deck cabin, and a mast with a square sail. The boat can hold three or four people comfortably, while the ship carries fifteen with ease.
A third word of command causes the boat or ship to fold itself into a box once again. The words of command may be inscribed visibly or invisibly on the box, or they may be written elsewhere - perhaps on an item within the box.

While wearing the boots of fire walking, you can climb a conflagration without feeling the heat of the flame. Crafted from the skin of a salamander, these comfortable boots, covered in red scales, adjust to fit the size of your feet. Wearing these boots activates their abilities. When worn, the boots of fire walking grant you the ability to walk on lava as if it were solid ground and to climb flames as though they were solid rock (requiring a DC 15 Climb check). While wearing boots of fire walking, you and your equipment are immune to environmental heat damage, although the boots of fire walking offer no protection from attacks that deal fire damage (magical or otherwise). Thus, you could attempt to climb a slow-moving lava fall or climb to the top of a bonfire, but you are not protected from a scorching ray or a fireball.

Boots of the Winterlands

This footgear bestows many powers upon the wearer. First, he is able to travel across snow at his normal speed, leaving no tracks. The boots also enable him to travel at half normal speed across the most slippery ice (horizontal surfaces only not vertical or sharply slanted ones) without falling or slipping. Finally boots of the winterlands warm the wearer, as if he were affected by an endure elements (cold) spell.

Bottle of Air

This item appears to be a normal glass bottle with a cork. When taken to any airless environment (such as underwater or in a vacuum), it retains air within it at all times, continually renewing its contents. This means that a character can draw air out of the bottle in order to breathe. The bottle can even be shared by multiple characters who pass it around. Breathing out of the bottle requires a standard action, but a character so doing can then act for as long as she can hold her breath.

Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals

This large container is usually fashioned from blue or green semiprecious stone (malachite, lapis lazuli, azurite, turquoise, or peridot, or sometimes jade). It is about 1 foot in diameter, half that deep, and relatively fragile. When the bowl is filled with fresh water, and certain words are spoken, a Large water elemental appears. The summoning words require 1 full round to speak. In all ways the bowl functions as the summon monster VI spell. Only one elemental can be called at a time. A new elemental requires the bowl to be filled with new water, which cannot happen until after the first elemental disappears (is dispelled, dismissed, or slain).
If salt water is used, the elemental is Huge rather than Large (as if summon monster VII had been cast). See the Monster Manual for details on water elementals.

Bracelet of Friends

This silver charm bracelet has seven charms upon it. The owner may designate one person known to him to be keyed to one charm. (This designation takes a standard action, but once done it lasts forever or until changed.) When a charm is grasped and the name of the keyed individual is spoken, that person is called to the spot (another standard action) along with his or her gear. Unwilling characters are allowed a Will saving throw (DC 19). Once a charm is activated, it disappears, so such bracelets discovered as treasure may have fewer than a full complement of charms when found.

If she already has proficiency with any type of bow, she gains a +2 competence bonus to attack rolls and a +1 competence bonus to damage dealt whenever using that type of bow. The bonus to damage only applies if the target is within 30 feet. Both bracers must be worn for the magic to be effective.

Bracers of Dawn

These bejeweled bracers have a miniscule lens-and-dial contraption mounted on the exterior of one bracer of the pair. When the dial is turned to the left, the bracers appear normal. When the wearer turns the dial to the middle position (a move action), a beam of light emerges from the lens, illuminating the surroundings as a bullseye lantern. Four times per day, the wearer can turn the dial to the right position as a standard action and aim the lens at a target, unleashing a beam of searing light that deals 3d8 points of damage to most creatures, 6d6 points of damage to undead, and 6d8 points of damage to creatures with light sensitivity. The dial returns to the middle position after each searing light. Even though only one of the pair contains the lens-and-dial apparatus, both bracers must be worn for the magic to be effective.

Bracers of Quick Strike

These bracers provide the benefit of incredible speed. Once per day, when taking a full attack action as a swift action the wearer may make one additional attack with any weapon he is holding. The attack is made at the wearer's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a speed weapon or by the haste spell, nor does it actually grant an extra action.) The bracers can be used only after being worn continuously for 24 hours. If they are taken off, they become inactive until they are again donned and worn for a full 24 hours.

Bracers of Whirlwind

Bracers of whirlwind transform you into a violent storm in which you may trap your foes. This set of thin electrum bracers is engraved with images of blowing leaves and swirling clouds. The bracers, slim enough to let you easily hide them under loose clothing, adjust to fit when you don them. Once per day as a standard action, you may cross your arms at the wrists and invoke the power of the bracers of whirlwind by exhaling a deep breath. The transformation lasts for 15 minutes, although you may dismiss the power of the bracers early and return to your normal form as a move action. The bracers transform you into a violent whirlwind made of air, granting you DR 10/magic and a flight speed of 100 feet (perfect). The whirlwind form is 40 feet high and behaves in all ways as the whirlwind of a Large air elemental.

Brazier of Commanding Fire Elementals

This device appears to be a normal container for holding burning coals. When a fire is lit in the brazier and the proper summoning words are spoken, a Large fire elemental appears. The summoning words require 1 full round to speak. In all ways the brazier functions as the summon monster VI spell. If brimstone is added, the elemental is Huge instead of Large, and the brazier works as a summon monster VII spell. Only one elemental can be summoned at a time. A new elemental requires a new fire, which cannot be lit until after the first elemental disappears (is dispelled, dismissed, or slain). See the Monster Manual for details on fire elementals.

The brilliant jewel can store magical energy to augment spells and spell-like abilities cast within the radius of its light. You may cast any spell or spell-like ability into the jewel, causing it to flare with rainbow colors. It illuminates out to a 30-foot radius with bright light and 30 feet further with shadowy light. The brilliant jewel remains illuminated for a number of rounds equal to the spell or spell-like ability cast within it. Once activated, all spells and spell-like abilities you cast of a school corresponding to the spell cast into the brilliant jewel are cast at +2 caster levels.

Candle of Icy Death

This black candle is 1 foot tall, 12 inches thick, and icy to the touch. When lit, the flame burns a pale blue, gives off no smoke or heat, and doesn't melt down. If examined with detect magic, the candle radiates a necromantic aura. Every minute that the candle burns reduces the temperature by 1° in a 20-foot-diameter area until 0° Fahrenheit is reached.
In addition, the candle prevents any healing, natural or magical, from occurring in its range. A wounded creature inside the area does not regain any lost hit points, and cure spells targeting a creature inside the area automatically fail (but are considered cast). Once lit, the candle can be snuffed only by a bless spell. The temperature of the area returns to the regular temperature at a normal rate.

Candle of Invocation

Each of these specially blessed tapers is dedicated to one of the nine alignments. Simply burning the candle generates a favorable aura for the individual so doing if the candle's alignment matches that of the character. Characters of the same alignment as the burning candle add a +2 morale bonus to attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks while within 30 feet of the flame.
A cleric whose alignment matches the candle's operates as if 2 levels higher for purposes of determining spells per day if he burns the candle during or just prior to his spell preparation time. He can even cast spells normally unavailable to him, as if he were of that higher level, but only so long as the candle continues to burn. Except in special cases (see below), the candle burns for 4 hours.
In addition, burning the candle also allows the owner to cast a gate spell, the respondent being of the same alignment as the candle, but the taper is immediately consumed in the process. It is possible to extinguish the candle simply by blowing it out so users often place it in a lantern to protect it from drafts and the like. Doing this doesn't interfere with its magical properties.

Candle of Sweet Breezes

The candle of sweet breezes fills the area around you with clean, breathable air. White swirls decorate a slim blue candle held within a relatively plain silver candleholder. Lighting the candle of sweet breezes as a standard action activates its abilities. When lit, a candle of sweet breezes creates a faint gust that forms a bubble of pure air in a radius of 60 feet that eliminates scents as well as airborne diseases and poisons. Other air is displaced by the bubble. The air within this bubble is safe to breathe 1 round after lighting the candle, regardless of any vapors or previous lack of air. The breeze created by the candle is very slight and does not disturb anything heavier than dust. Characters gain a +2 bonus on saving throws made to resist breath weapons that enter the area of the candle. The candle bums for 1 hour, after which time its magic fades and any previous environmental effects reestablish themselves normally. Once lit, the candle cannot be reused. Due to the magic of the candle, lighting the wick cannot result in an explosion, even if the candle is ignited within a flammable gas.

Chime of Opening

A chime of opening is a hollow mithral tube about 1 foot long. When struck, it sends forth magic vibrations that cause locks, lids, doors, valves, and portals to open. The device functions against normal bars, shackles, chains, bolts, and so on. The chime of opening also automatically dispels a hold portal spell or even an arcane lock cast by a wizard of less than 15th level.
The chime must be pointed at the item or gate to be loosed or opened (which must be visible and known to the user). The chime is then struck, a clear tone rings forth, and in 1 round the target lock is unlocked, the shackle is loosed, the secret door is opened, or the lid of the chest is lifted. Each sounding only opens one form of locking, so if a chest is chained, padlocked, locked, and arcane locked, it takes four uses of the chime of opening to get it open. A silence spell negates the power of the device. A brand-new chime can be used a total of 50 times before it cracks and becomes useless.

Choker of the Sirens

This choker grants you several qualities of a siren, including a captivating song and the ability to breathe water. The choker of the sirens is a black leather choker edged in lace with two pearls set at its center. In addition to the two obvious pearls, the choker possesses an empty setting for a third stone. It occupies the same slot as an amulet.
The ability to breathe water functions regardless of the owner's gender, but the captivating song functions only for females. The ability to breathe water functions as long as the choker is worn and does not require any activation. Once per day, you can captivate others by singing. You do not need ranks in Perform (sing) to use the captivation ability. A male character cannot use the captivating song feature of the choker of the sirens.
While worn, the choker of the sirens enables you to breathe water in addition to breathing air, as the spell water breathing. Only a female character can call forth the true power of the choker of the sirens. Once per day, when you sing, all creatures within 90 feet of you must make a Will save (DC 12 + your Charisma modifier) or become captivated. This is a sonic, mind-affecting, charm effect. A captivated victim moves toward you in the most direct way possible. The creature can avoid hazards and moves to avoid attacks of opportunity when able. A creature that takes damage is granted a second saving throw with a +2 bonus. Captivated creatures can take no actions other than to move toward you. A victim within 5 feet of you becomes fascinated and helpless, and it doesn't break free of the fascination effect unless it takes at least 1 point of damage (which grants it a saving throw with a +2 bonus). The effect continues for as long as you sing, to a maximum number of rounds equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier (minimum round). A bard's countersong ability allows the captivated creature to attempt a new Will save. Attaching a pearl of the sirens to the empty setting of the choker of the sirens increases the choker's DC by +2.

If he desires, the wearer can actually polymorph himself into an ordinary bat and fly accordingly (All possessions worn or carried are part of the transformation.) Flying, either with the cloak or in bar form, can be accomplished only in darkness (either under the night sky or in a lightless or near-lightless environment underground). Either of the flying powers is usable for up to 1 hour at a time, but after a flight of any duration the cloak cannot bestow any flying power for a like period of time.
Finally the cloak also provides a +2 deflection bonus to Armor Class. This benefit extends to the wearer even when he is in bat form.

Cloak of the Manta Ray

This cloak appears to be made of leather until the wearer enters salt water. At that time the cloak of the manta ray adheres to the individual, and he appears nearly identical to a manta ray (A Spot check against DC 20 is needed to determine otherwise.) He gains a +3 natural armor bonus, the ability to breathe underwater, and a speed of 60 feet, exactly like a real manta ray.
Although the cloak does not enable the wearer to bite opponents as a manta ray does, it does have a tail spine that can be used to strike at opponents behind him, dealing 1d6 points of damage. This attack can be used in addition to any other attack the character has, using his highest melee attack bonus. The wearer can release his arms from the cloak without sacrificing underwater movement if so desired.

Cloak of the Salamander

Cloak of The Sorcerer-King

Like the ripples of sunlight off a pool of water, the brilliant colors of this full-length cloak seem to dance and swirl as its wearer moves. Woven from hundreds of tiny scales taken from each of the five chromatic dragons, this cloak has the ability to imbue the wearer with some of their power. The cloak of the sorcerer-king grants its wearer a +6 enhancement bonus to Charisma. In addition, it allows the wearer to take on the aspect of each of the chromatic dragons once per day, gaining some of the abilities of that dragon. Activating an aspect is a standard action for the wearer, and each aspect lasts for 1 minute. No other aspect may be assumed for the duration of the effect. The following describes the aspects and their effects.

Cloud Giant Harp

You can play a soothing melody on this harp that puts creatures to sleep. The harp is of particular use against giants. A cloud giant harp is wrought of fine golden wood, inset with brilliant jewels, and etched with intricate designs. The column of the harp is crafted to resemble the face of a regal cloud giantess face. The harp stands about 4 feet tall and makes for a wonderful handheld instrument for giants. Smaller folk are typically surprised that, despite its thick wood construction, the harp is as light as a feather. The harp emits beautiful angelic music when played, and in the case of sentient versions, the giant effigy even sings in glorious harmony along with the plucked strings.
You can play the harp as a standard action, but must succeed at either a DC 15 or a DC 20 Perform (string instruments) check for its magic to function. This check can be made once per day, whether or not it succeeds. When you succeed at a DC 15 Perform (string instruments) check, you play a soothing melody that puts up to 10 HD of humanoids within 30 feet of you to sleep (as per deep slumber) unless they succeed at DC 14 Will saves. You can affect up to 20 HD of giants with this harp, but you must succeed at a DC 20 Perform (string instruments) check to do so. If you fail to make a DC 20 check but succeed at a DC 15 check, you may still affect up to 10 HD of creatures.

Variants: Sentient versions of cloud giant harps exist that are said to be elegant speakers and singers. Extremely fond of their original cloud giant creators, these harps consider giants the greatest of all beings and superior to those of lesser stature. These harps still obey most of their masters' commands but only after voicing their displeasure and embarrassment at being "used by such an inferior creature."

Coin of Eternal Rest

A raised skull adorns both sides of this otherwise featureless copper coin. When placed in the mouth of a corpse, the coin prevents it from being raised, resurrected, or turned into undead of any sort. Vermin and undead avoid a corpse bearing this coin, but they can overcome the aversion with a successful Will check (DC 20). The coin does not work in the mouth of a living or undead being.

Collar of Command

When this collar is put on an animal, the animal is subject to the control of the collar's owner as if it is under a dominate animal effect. The animal obeys the owner's silent mental commands. Usually, the collar is placed on an animal that has been rendered unconscious, staggered by means of nonlethal damage, or grappled and pinned. When using the skirmish or mass battle rules, this collar removes the animal's Difficult special ability.

Contract of Nepthas

Easily mistaken for a scroll if found as treasure, this item is actually a magical contract, usually contained in an ivory tube and scribed in black ink on golden-brown vellum. The details of the contract are blank, and the user can fill it in with any instructions, agreement, or conditions he cares to create. When the contract is signed, though, the item's true power is revealed to both parties, and any signatory who breaks the contract is subject to a curse that strikes it blinded, deafened, and mute (no saving throw, though spell resistance applies). The curse of a contract of Nepthas can be removed only by means of remove curse cast by an 8th-level spellcaster or a break enchantment spell (DC 25).
Because a contract typically involves two parties agreeing on a set of conditions, nonspecific terms might allow a clever signatory to escape them without suffering the contract's curse. For example, if an adventurer signs a contract with a king stating that she will slay a dragon in the Northern Hills by the eve of the new moon, the contract is effectively open-ended by virtue of its not specifying "the next new moon," even if that was both parties' meaning and intent.
Contracts signed by creatures under the influence of charm or compulsion effects are null and void.

Corporeal Lodestone

This powerful ward resembles nothing more than an unremarkable 1-inch-diameter sphere of polished steel. The lodestone's power, however, is a great blessing to those who battle incorporeal undead and creatures who can travel ethereally. The lodestone strengthens the boundary between the Ethereal Plane and the Material Plane, preventing any incorporeal undead from manifesting within a 20-foot radius. It also prevents any travel to and from the Ethereal Plane within that radius, negating the effects of spells such as blink, ethereal jaunt, and etherealness. Because the lodestone is so tightly bound to the Material Plane, it may not be taken to another plane. Any time its possessor is transported across planes, the lodestone remains behind.

Crown of White Ravens

A crown of White Ravens is one of several items that grants its wearer the use of a maneuver. The crown's wearer need not be a martial adept, but knowledge of other maneuvers and ranks in the discipline's key skill give the wearer access to more powerful maneuvers.
Lore: Elf scholars insist that members of their race were the first to create crowns of White Ravens, and all other similar items, such as Desert Wind cloaks and slippers of the Setting Sun, are copies of the concept created by martial adepts of other races. This assessment seems plausible not only because all crowns of White Ravens seem to be fashioned in the elven style, but also because the crowns have the longest recorded history.
Description: Three types of crowns of White Ravens exist: novice, scholar, and master. Each looks like a crown of white alabaster, carved with delicate fluting and spindles that rise from it like castle towers. Novice crowns of White Ravens have the simplest appearance and the fewest spires, while a master crown of White Ravens bears more than a dozen towers and some highly ornate carvings.
Anyone can wear a crown of White Ravens, but to gain any benefit from it, a wearer must meet the prerequisite of the desired maneuver.
Activation: A crown of White Ravens requires a day to attune to its wearer once it is donned. After wearing it continually for 24 hours, the wearer must choose one of the White Raven maneuvers that the item can grant for which he meets the prerequisite. He then gains knowledge of that maneuver and can use it as long as the crown is worn. Should the crown be removed and then replaced, it requires another day to attune itself to the wearer before it can grant knowledge of any maneuvers.
Effect: A person who has worn a crown of White Ravens for 24 hours gains the use of a single White Raven maneuver for which he meets the prerequisite. The maneuver can be of a martial adept level up to the highest level the item grants. A novice crown of White Ravens grants a maneuver of up to 3rd level, a scholar crown of White Ravens grants a maneuver of up to 6th level, and a master crown of White Ravens grants a maneuver of up to 9th level.
Aura/Caster Level: Faint divination (novice), moderate divination (scholar), or strong divination (master). CL 5th (novice), 10th (scholar), or 15th (master).
Construction (Novice): Craft Wondrous Item, knowledge of a maneuver from the White Raven discipline; 1,500 gp, 120 XP, 3 days.
Construction (Scholar): Craft Wondrous Item, knowledge of a maneuver from the White Raven discipline; 7,500 gp, 600 XP, 15 days.
Construction (Master): Craft Wondrous Item, knowledge of a maneuver of the White Raven discipline; 22,500 gp, 1,800 XP, 45 days.
Variants: Eight variants of the crown of White Ravens exists, one for each of the other martial disciplines. Like the crown of White Ravens, each has a novice, scholar, and master version. In all respects, they function in the same manner as the crown of White Ravens does, except that each grants access to a maneuver from a different discipline and occupies a different place on the wearer's body.
Desert Wind Cloak: Desert Wind cloaks are the color of wind-blown sand, and they always shift and flutter as if disturbed by a breeze, even indoors and on calm days. Most bear decorative stitching around the edges in gold and red thread depicting flaming scimitars, picks that trail smoke, and maces that shine like the sun.
Devoted Spirit Amulet: The appearance of these amulets varies considerably, since each is constructed to serve a particular axis of alignment: chaos, evil, good, or law. Some even double as holy symbols. A Devoted Spirit amulet does not function for someone who doesn't share its alignment.
Iron Heart Vest: These heavy, leather vests are run through with tiny slivers of iron, which give them a dull sparkle. The iron resists rust, but Iron Heart vests can eventually take on an orange hue because the iron slivers degrade and stain the vest's material.
Ring of the Diamond Mind: Unlike similar items devoted to different disciplines, a ring of the Diamond Mind requires its creator to have the Forge Ring feat instead of Craft Wondrous Item. A ring of the Diamond Mind looks like a simple gold band set with a diamond, but anyone peering closely into the stone can see the visage of the wearer, or of the last person to wear the ring if no one currently wears it.
Shadow Hands: Shadow Hands look like hands carved of jet. The carvings are incredibly detailed, depicting every mark of a humanoid hand, down to fingerprints and every crack in the palm and knuckle. When someone places both hands over the Shadow Hands so that his shadow falls over them, the carved hands vanish, and a pair of black silk gloves appears on the person's hands. The gloves can be removed normally, whereupon they become hands carved of jet that look exactly like the wearer's hands.
Slippers of the Setting Sun: Each of these beautifully crafted red silk slippers bears an emblem of the setting sun upon the toe. The sun is stitched gold thread, and its rays are bronze and copper.
Stone Dragon Belt: A Stone Dragon belt looks like a wide belt made from expertly broken slabs of slate. Surprisingly, it weighs almost nothing and doesn't inhibit movement at all.
Tiger Claw Bracers: These bracers bear a tiger's stripes, but all in metal, with copper for orange, iron for black, and silver for white. Upon donning the bracers, the wearer hears a tiger's roar and feels the pain of sharp claws in his back for fleeting moment.

Crystal Ball

This is the most common form of scrying device, a crystal sphere about 6 inches in diameter. A character can use the device to see over virtually any distance or into other planes of existence, as with the spell scrying.
Certain crystal balls have additional powers that can be used through the crystal ball at targets viewed.

Cube of Force

This device can be made of ivory, bone, or any hard mineral. About the size of a large die (perhaps 3/4 inch across), it enables its possessor to put up a special wall of force 10 feet per side around her person. This cubic screen moves with the character and is impervious to the attack forms shown on the table below. The cube has 36 charges, which are renewed each day. The character presses one face of the cube to activate or deactivate the field:

Cube FaceCharge Cost per MinuteMaximum SpeedEffect
1130 ft.Keeps out gases, wind, etc.
2220 ft.Keeps out nonliving matter
3315 ft.Keeps out living matter

When the force screen is up, attacks dealing more than 30 points of damage drain 1 charge for every 10 points of damage beyond 30 that they deal (40 points of damage drains 1 charge, 50 points drains 2 charges, and so forth). Spells that affect the integrity of the screen, such as disintegrate or passwall, also drain extra charges. These spells (in the following list) cannot be cast into or out of the cube:

Cube of Frost Resistance

When this cube is activated, it encloses a cube-shaped area 10 feet per side. The temperature within this area is always at least 65°F. The field absorbs all cold-based attacks (such as ice storm, cone of cold, and white dragon breath). However, if the field is subjected to more than 50 points of cold damage in 1 round (from one or multiple attacks), it collapses and cannot be renewed for 1 hour. If the field receives over 100 points of damage in a 10-round period, the cube is destroyed.
Cold below 0°F deals the field 2 points of cold damage per round, +2 points per each 10° below 0 (2 points at -1° to -9°, 4 points at -10° to -19°, and so on).

Cubic Gate

This item is fashioned from carnelian. Each of the six sides of the cube is keyed to a plane, one of which is the Material Plane. The character creating the item should choose the planes to which the other five sides are keyed. If such a cube is found as treasure, the DM can determine the planes accessed by the device in any manner he or she chooses.
If a side of the cubic gate is pressed once, it opens a gate to the plane keyed to that side. There is a 10% chance per minute that an outsider from that plane (determine randomly) comes through it looking for food, fun, or trouble. Pressing the side a second time closes the gate. It is impossible to open more than one gate at a time.
If a side is pressed twice in quick succession, the character so doing is transported to the other plane, along with all creatures in a 5-foot radius. (Those others may avoid this fate by succeeding at Will against DC 23).

Daern's Instant Fortress

This metal cube is small, but when activated it grows to form a tower 20 feet square and 30 feet high, with arrow slits on all sides and a 4 crenellated battlement atop it. The metal walls extend 10 feet into the ground, rooting it to the spot and preventing it from being tipped over. The fortress has a small door that opens only at the command of the owner of the fortress - even knock spells can't open the door. The adamantine walls of Daern's instant fortress have 100 hit points and a hardness of 20. The fortress cannot be repaired except by a wish or a miracle, which restores 50 points of damage sustained.
The fortress springs up in just 1 round, with the door facing the device's owner. The door opens and closes instantly at his command. People and creatures nearby (except the owner) must be careful not to be caught by the fortress's sudden growth. Anyone so caught sustains 10d10 points of damage (Reflex half DC 19).

If the stopper is removed from this ordinary-looking flask and a command word spoken, a stream of fresh or salt water pours our. Separate command words determine the type as well as the volume and velocity:

The geyser causes considerable back pressure, requiring the holder to make a Strength check (DC 12) to avoid being knocked down. The force of the geyser deals 1d4 points of damage but can only affect one target per round. The command word must be spoken to stop it.

Deck of Illusions

This set of parchment cards is usually found in an ivory leather, or wooden box. A full deck consists of thirty-four cards. When a card is drawn at random and thrown to the ground, a major image of a creature is formed. The figment lasts until dispelled. The illusory creature cannot move more than 30 feet away from where the card landed, but otherwise moves and acts as if it were real. At all times it obeys the desires of the character who drew the card. When the illusion is dispelled, the card becomes blank and cannot be used again. If the card is picked up, the illusion is automatically and instantly dispelled. The cards in a deck and the illusions they bring forth are summarized here. A randomly generated deck may be discovered (a 01-10 result on d%) with 1d20 of its cards missing. (On a result of 11-100, it is complete.)

Demonhair Shirt

This filthy black garment is woven from hoarse black hair. The knots and flecks of unspeakable grime make wearing, let alone, handling the shirt unpleasant. When wearing a demonhair shirt you gain immunity to fear. If you have the rage class feature (or a similar ability), you may spend two of your daily uses of rage at once to become overcome with demonic fury, gaining a +6 profane bonus to Strength, +2 profane bonus to Armor Class, and a +10 profane bonus to speed. While under the effects of demonic fury, your natural weapons and weapons you wield count as chaotic for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction. In exchange for these benefits, you take 2 points of nonlethal damage each round. Once activated, the demonic fury lasts for a number of rounds equal to your improved Constitution bonus (minimum 1 round). This benefit stacks with rage (and frenzy). At the end of this time, you become fatigued for 1 hour.
Good characters take no penalty for wearing this shirt unless they abide by a code of conduct. Wearing this item violates codes of conduct for both good and lawful characters.

Dimensional Chalk Holder

This small, elaborately carved silver tube is designed to hold a single piece of normal chalk. On mental command, the user can "draw" in the air, which leaves behind a vibrant blue line of crackling energy. Once a complete circle has been formed, the enclosed space suddenly disappears, creating a gate to wherever the user wishes. It only allows the planar travel aspect of the gate spell, not the ability to call forth creatures.
The item allows its user to draw only a circle. The user can feel it resisting anything but a curved line. There is no size limit to the circle, but it must be completely drawn in 1 full round to create the gate.
The dimensional chalk holder can draw 1d4+1 gates before crumbling into dust. Drawing a line counts as one use, regardless of whether a complete circle was made or not.

Any creatures within 30 feet that are on nearby transitive planes such as the Astral Plane, Ethereal Plane, or Plane of Shadow (including those using spells such as blink, maze, or shadow walk), must succeed on a Will save (DC 30) or be forced onto the Material Plane.

Dust of Appearance

This fine powder appears to be a very fine, very light metallic dust. A single handful of this substance flung into the air coats surrounding objects, making them visible even if they are invisible - just like the glitterdust spell. (The dust of appearance, however, doesn't blind creatures.) The dust also reveals figments, mirror images, and projected images for what they are. It likewise negates the effects of blur and displacement. (In this, it works just like the faerie fire spell). A creature coated with the dust cannot hide. The dust's effect lasts for 2d% minutes.

This dust looks just like dust of appearance and is typically stored in the same manner. A creature or object touched by it becomes invisible (as improved invisibility). Normal vision can't see dusted creatures or objects, nor can they be detected by magical means, including see invisibility or invisibility purge. Dust of appearance, however, does reveal people and objects made invisible by dust of disappearance. Other factors, such as sound and smell, also allow possible detection.

Dust of Dispersion

This fine powder resembles other types of magic dust, and a single handful flung into the air creates a translucent cloud 10 feet high, 10 feet long, and 10 feet wide. Creatures outside the cloud can see into it and through it (though their sight is slightly blurred), but any ranged attacks entering or passing through the cloud have a 50% miss chance. Creatures within the cloud make ranged attack rolls normally.
The cloud persists for 3 minutes, but a moderate wind (11+ mph) disperses it in 4 rounds. A strong wind (21+ mph) disperses the cloud in 1 round, and any spell that deals fire damage burns away any part of the cloud in its area. The dust cannot be used underwater.

Dust of Dryness

This special dust has many uses. If it is thrown into water, up to a cubic yard of the water is instantly transformed to nothingness, and the dust becomes a marble-sized pellet, floating or resting where it was thrown. If this pellet is hurled down, it breaks and releases the same volume of water. The dust affects only water (fresh, salt, alkaline), not other liquids.
If the dust is employed against a water creature, the creature must make a Fortitude save (DC 18) or be destroyed. The dust deals 5d6 points of damage to the water creature even if its saving throw succeeds.

A single dose of this dust can either be poured on a single target or hurled to cascade into a 10-foot-long cone. If used against a single target, the saving throw to resist the dust's effects is made at a -4 penalty. Any living creature touched by the dust must make a successful Fortitude save (DC 13). Those who fail to save roll 1d6 and consult the table below to determine which of their senses are dulled. The effects of this roll are cumulative; someone who rolls a 6 has all six senses dulled. The effects of dust of dullness last for 1d6 hours.

Dust of Tracelessness

This normal-seeming dust is actually a magic powder that can conceal the passage of its possessor and his companions. Tossing a pinch of this dust into the air causes a chamber of up to 1,000 square feet of floor space to become as dusty, dirty, and cobweb-laden as if it had been abandoned and disused for a decade.
A pinch of dust sprinkled along a trail causes evidence of the passage of as many as a dozen men and horses to be obliterated for a mile back into the distance. The results of the dust are instantaneous, so no magical aura lingers afterward from this use of the dust. Tracking checks across an area affected by this dust are made against a DC 20 higher than normal.

Dyrr's Impervious Vestment

This black silk robe is embroidered with adamantine thread in an elegant waterfall pattern. It confers a +9 armor bonus to its wearer, and once per day can be commanded to create a blade barrier as a full-round action. The spell produces a ringed wall of whirling blades only (20 feet high, up to 90 feet in diameter, centered on the wearer's current location), which lasts for 18 minutes or until dismissed as a standard action. As long as Dyrr's impervious vestment is worn, the wearer is able to pass through the barrier without harm, though he receives no such protection against any other blade barrier.

Efreeti Bottle

This item is typically fashioned of brass or bronze, with a lead stopper bearing special seals. A thin stream of smoke is often seen issuing from it. The bottle can be opened once per day. When opened, the efreeti imprisoned within issues from the bottle instantly. There is a 10% chance that the efreeti is insane and attacks immediately upon being released. There is also a 10% chance that the efreeti of the bottle grants three wishes. In either case, the efreeti afterward disappears forever. The other 80% of the time, the inhabitant of the bottle loyally serves the character for up to 10 minutes per day (or until the efreeti's death), doing as she commands. (See the Monster Manual for efreeti statistics.) Roll each day the bottle is opened for that day's effect.

Elemental Elixir

This elixir infuses you with the raw power of the Elemental Planes, changing your body. Found in a metal flask, this elixir comes in four varieties - one for each element: air, earth, fire, and water. Each flask contains only one dose. Drinking the elixir grants you its power. A dose of elemental elixir transforms you into an elemental of your size and of the kind the elixir is keyed to. The transformation lasts for 30 minutes, although you can dismiss the transformation as a standard action before the duration expires. For example, a halfling drinking an air elemental elixir transforms into a Small air elemental, while an ogre drinking a fire elemental elixir becomes a Large fire elemental. For the duration of the transformation, your type becomes elemental and your subtype changes to match your new form. You gain the Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of the new elemental form but retain your own Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You also gain all extraordinary and supernatural special attacks and qualities possessed by the new elemental form. Neither changing into the new elemental form nor returning to your natural form results in the healing of any hit point damage. If slain, you revert to your original form, although you remain dead.

Elixir of Draconic Essence

This elixir comes in five varieties, one for each of the five chromatic dragons. Made from the blood of true dragons and enhanced by magic, the elixir grants powers of its associated creature to whomever drinks it. Thick scales of the appropriate color cover the drinker's skin, granting him a +4 enhancement bonus to his existing natural armor bonus. Meanwhile, his physique grows in power to match his draconic form. He gains a +8 enhancement bonus to Strength, a +4 enhancement bonus to Constitution, a +2 enhancement bonus to Intelligence, and a +2 enhancement bonus to Charisma. His face extends into a fierce snout, while his fingers twist into sharp claws, giving him 2 claws and a bite he can use natural attacks (damage is based on size, see the Dragon Essence table). Powerful wings burst from his shoulders, giving him a fly speed of 60-feet (average). He gains a breath weapon of the appropriate type (see the Dragon Essence Table) usable once every 1d4 rounds, dealing 6d6 points of damage. A DC 14, Reflex save halves this damage. The drinker also gains complete immunity to the energy type associated with his breath weapon. These effects remain for 10 minutes.

This metal urn is identical in appearance to an efreeti bottle, except that it does nothing but smoke. The amount of smoke is great if the stopper is pulled our, pouring from the bottle and totally obscuring vision across a spread of 50 feet in 1 round. If the bottle is left unstoppered, the smoke spreads another 10 feet per round until it has spread 100 feet. This area remains smoke-filled until the eversmoking bottle is stoppered. The bottle must be resealed by a command word, after which the smoke dissipates normally.

This large, normal-looking sponge is capable of absorbing an enormous quantity of water. If placed in a body of water, it floats and begins soaking it up at the rate of 1,000 gallons per round. The sponge stops once it has absorbed 225,000 gallons of water - the size of a pool 100 feet long, 50 wide, and 6 feet deep. This water disappears completely, and if the sponge is squeezed afterward, it releases only as much water as a normal wet sponge. The eversoaking sponge absorbs only water, not mud or muck. Acid, oil, and other liquids affect it as they would a normal sponge.

Warm to the touch, this red spike pulses with stored energy. The spike does nothing until it is planted firmly in the ground (a standard action). One round later, the spike becomes invisible. Any creature that thereafter comes within 10 feet of the spike causes it to explode in a fireball that deals 10d6 points of fire damage (Reflex DC 14 half) to every creature within 20 feet of the spike. This blast destroys the spike.

Figurines of Wondrous Power

Each of the several kinds of figurines of wondrous power appears to be a tiny statuette of an creature an inch or so high (with one exception). When the figurine is tossed down and the correct command word spoken, it becomes a living creature of normal size (except when noted otherwise below). The creature obeys and serves its owner.
If a figurine of wondrous power is broken or destroyed in its statuette form, it is forever ruined. All magic is lost, its power departed. If slain in animal form, the figurine simply reverts to a statuette that can be used again at a later time.

Fruit Blossom Spike

When driven or hammered into a fruit tree, this slim wooden stake causes the tree to go through an amazingly fast rejuvenation, growing extremely healthy and producing an enormous amount of fruit. It takes 1 complete round to complete this growth, at which point the fruit falls to the ground and the tree begins to wither and die. Both the tree and the spike are utterly destroyed in the process.
A single tree produces enough fresh fruit to feed eight creatures for two days, acting like a maximized good berry spell. After three days, the fruit turns into worthless mush. Fruit blossom spikes do not work on plant creatures such as treants or tendriculos.

Anyone else touched by the gauntlet during this time takes 1d6+10 points of fire damage.

Ghoul-Light Lantern

These eldritch lanterns are used by true ghouls to light their cities and to augment their undead minds. Although they can see in the dark, they find the necromantic green glow of the ghoul-light comforting. A ghoul-light lantern can be command to shed its sickly green glow as a move action. Once activated, the glow illuminates a 20-foot radius and provides shadowy illumination out to a 40-foot radius. Living flesh illuminated by ghoul-light feels strangely cold and clammy, while undead within the light feel more energetic. Any living creature within 20 feet of a source of ghoul-light takes a -1 penalty on Will saves and all Charisma checks (including turn undead checks and all Charisma-based skills). Undead within 20 feet of a source of ghoul-light gain a +1 profane bonus on Will saves and Charisma checks.
Ghoul-light is treated as bright illumination against creatures with light sensitivity (such as drow).
All creatures exposed to ghoul-light begin to glow softly themselves with the nasty green light. This glow does not provide additional illumination, but it does affect all creatures within 20 feet of the source as if by faerie fire, thus reducing the effectiveness of invisibility, displacement, and similar effects.

In addition, once per day, you can make a sudden chopping motion to grant you the ability to mold stone as clay, but doing so causes the gloves of burrowing to lose all power for 1 hour afterward. While worn, the gloves of burrowing grant you the ability to push through earth or stone with a burrow speed equal to one half your base land speed. Your passage is like that of an earth elemental, leaving no tunnel behind for others to follow and indeed no signs of your passage at all. In addition to the ability to move through the ground, gloves of burrowing grant you the ability to use stone shape once per day as a 9th-level sorcerer.

With a snap of the fingers wearing the glove, the item reappears. A glove can only store one item at a time. The item is held in stasis and shrunk down so small within the palm of the glove that it cannot be seen. Many owners of gloves of storing find them to be useful and dramatic ways to store weapons, wands, and - because the item is stored in stasis - even lit torches.

Helm of Underwater Action

The wearer of this helmet can see underwater. Drawing the small lenses in compartments on either side into position before the wearer's eyes activates the visual properties of the helm, allowing her to see five times farther than water and light conditions would allow for normal human vision. (Weeds, obstructions, and the like block vision in the usual manner.) If the command word is spoken, the helm of underwater action creates a globe of air around the wearer's head and maintains it until the command word is spoken again, enabling her to breathe freely.

Heward's Handy Haversack

A backpack of this sort appears to be well made, well used, and quite ordinary. It is constructed of finely tanned leather, and the straps have brass hardware and buckles. It has two side pouches, each of which appears large enough to hold about a quart of material. In fact, each is like a bag of holding and can actually hold material equal to as much as 2 cubic feet in volume or 20 pounds in weight. The large central portion of the pack can contain up to 8 cubic feet or 80 pounds of material. Even when so filled, the backpack always weighs only 5 pounds.
While such storage is useful enough, the pack has an even greater power in addition. When the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item is always on top. Thus, no digging around and fumbling is ever necessary to find what a haversack contains. Retrieving any specific item from a haversack is a move-equivalent action. Heward's handy haversack and whatever it contains gain a +2 resistance bonus to all saving throws.

Horned Helm

This dark leather helm has an open face and sports a pair of impressive deer antlers that rise from the forehead. When worn, the antlers join solidly with the wearer's skull. The wearer's base speed is doubled, and the horned helm grants a +2 enhancement bonus on melee attacks with the horns, which deal 1d8 points of damage.

Horn of Blasting

This horn appears robe a normal trumpet. It can be sounded as a normal horn, but if the command word is spoken and the instrument is then played, it has the following effects, both of which happen at once:

If a horn of blasting is used magically more than once in a given day there is a 10% cumulative chance with each extra use that it explodes and deals 5d10 points of damage to the person sounding it.

This horn functions as a horn of blasting, except that it deals 10d6 points of sonic damage stuns creatures for 1 round, and deafens them for 4d6 rounds (a DC 19 Fortitude reduces the damage by half and negates the stunning and deafening). Crystalline objects take 16d6 points of sonic damage as described for the horn of blasting. A greater horn of blasting also has a 20% cumulative chance of exploding.

Horn of Fog

This small bugle allows its possessor to blow forth a thick cloud of heavy fog similar to that of an obscuring mist spell. The fog spreads 10 feet each round that the user continues to blow the horn. The device makes a deep, foghorn-like noise, with the note dropping abruptly to a lower register at the end of each blast.

Horn of Goodness/Evil

This trumpet adapts itself to its owner, so it produces either a good or an evil effect depending on the owner's alignment. If the owner is neither good nor evil, the horn has no power whatsoever. If he is good, then blowing the horn has the effect of a magic circle against evil. If he is evil, then blowing the horn has the effect of a magic circle against good. In either case, this ward lasts for 10 rounds. The horn can be blown once per day.

Horn of Valhalla

This magic instrument come in four varieties. Each appears to be normal until someone speaks its command word and blows the horn. Then the horn summons a number of human barbarians to fight for the character who summoned them. Each horn can be blown just once every seven days. Roll d% to see what type of horn is found. The horn's type determines what barbarians are summoned and what prerequisite is needed to use the horn. Any character who uses a horn of Valhalla but doesn't have the prerequisite is attacked by the barbarians she herself summoned.

Horseshoes of a Zephyr

These four iron shoes are affixed like normal horseshoes. They allow a horse to travel without actually touching the ground. The horse must still run above (always around 4 inches above) a roughly horizontal surface. This means that nonsolid or unstable surfaces, such as water or lava, can be crossed, and that movement is possible without leaving tracks on any sort of ground. The horse moves at normal speed. All four shoes must be worn by the same animal for the magic to be effective.

Idol of False Vision

This large statue automatically detects any attempts to scry (including scrying and similar spells, such as arcane eye and clairaudience/clairvoyance) any individuals or locations within 50 feet of it. Any such effect triggers a false vision spell that masks any creature attuned to the idol from being scried (such attempts automatically fail). Attunement may be performed during the idol's creation or at any time later by touching the idol and speaking a command word chosen during creation. The idol can cast false vision three times per day.

Incense of Meditation

This small rectangular block of sweet-smelling incense is visually indistinguishable from nonmagical Incense until lit. When it is burning, the special fragrance and pearly-hued smoke of this special incense are recognizable by anyone making a Spellcraft check (DC 15).
When a divine spellcaster lights a block of incense of meditation and then spends 8 hours praying and meditating nearby, the incense enables him to prepare all of his spells as though affected by the Maximize Spell metamagic feat. However, all the spells prepared in this way are at their normal level, not at three levels higher (as with the regular metamagic feat). Each block of incense burns for 8 hours, and the effects remain for 24 hours.

Incense of the Gorgon

This foul-smelling incense is typically found in a dark green vial with the embossed image of a gorgon. When burned, however, it creates a truly overwhelming smoke that fills a 10-foot cube. The incense is consumed after 1 round and the smoke dissipates naturally. Those in the area and not holding their breath must succeed on a Fortitude save (DC 19) or be turned to stone as if affected by the flesh to stone spell.

Insatiable Locust

Banned in almost every civilized society, this 1-foot-long statue of a locust is capable of incredible destruction to crops and agricultural areas. It is carved from a single piece of brilliant jade and has two large rubies for eyes.
On command, the insatiable locust can animate. It then goes on an eating rampage, devouring up to ten tons of grain, crops, and fruits per day for up to seven days, over a diameter of fifty miles. It never attacks people or livestock and attempts to fly away when confronted with violence. The locust first eats planted crops, such as corn, wheat, and rye, followed by fruit and finally wild vegetation. The locust attacks and consumes plant creatures, but only after all other vegetation has been destroyed first.
Once the locust has eaten for seven days (or there is no more food), it unerringly returns to its owner and reverts to its statue form. It cannot be reactivated again for another full seven days. The eaten crops are utterly destroyed. Jade Locust

Insidious Seaweed

This brittle strand of dried seaweed bears a rough texture and a slight briny smell. Once per day, when you activate the insidious seaweed, it quickly grows to many times its size, duplicating the effects of an entangle spell for 3 minutes, centered on you (DC 11). You are not affected by the entangling plants created by your own insidious seaweed as long as you hold it. If you let go of the insidious seaweed you are affected by its entangling plants as normal. Insidious seaweed does not need nearby plants to work, as it creates its own. You can end the effect prematurely by uttering the command word a second time.

Instruments of the Bards

A wise and powerful bard named Falataer reportedly created the first of these instruments, using them to test and reward the students of the seven levels of his bardic college. Others have since copied the designs, honoring Falataer by keeping the names he gave them. Each instrument has its own set of unique powers that can be activated automatically by anyone with sufficient ranks in the appropriate Perform skill, but for a character without the requisite skill, some instruments bestow one negative level as long as the instrument is carried. This negative level never results in actual level loss, but it cannot be overcome in any way (including restoration spells) while the instrument is held.

Ioun Stones

These stones always float in the air and must be within 3 feet of their owner to be of any use. When a character first acquires a stone, she must hold it and then release it, whereupon it takes up a circling orbit 1d3 feet from her head. Thereafter, a stone must be grasped or netted to separate it from its owner. The owner may voluntarily seize and stow a stone (while sleeping, for example) to keep it safe, but she loses the benefits of the stone during that time. Ioun stones have an AC of 24, 10 hit points, and a hardness of 5.
Regeneration from the pearly white Ioun stone works like a ring of regeneration. (It only cures damage taken while the character is using the stone.) The pale lavender and lavender and green stones work like a rod of absorption, but absorbing a spell requires a readied action, and these stones cannot be used to empower spells. Stored spells in the vibrant purple stone must be placed by a spellcaster but can be used by anyone (see ring of spell storing).

Iron Bands of Bilarro

When initially discovered, this very potent item appears to be a rusty iron sphere. Close examination reveals that there are bandings on the 3-inch-diameter globe.
When the proper command word is spoken and the spherical iron device is hurled at an opponent, rho bands expand and tightly constrict the target creature on a successful ranged touch attack. A single creature of large size or smaller can be captured thus and held immobile until the command word is spoken to bring the bands into globular form again. The creature can break (and ruin) the bands with a successful Strength check (DC 30) or escape them with a successful Escape Artist check (also DC 30).

Iron Flask

These special containers are typically inlaid with runes of silver and stoppered by a brass plug bearing a seal engraved with sigils, glyphs, and special symbols. When the user speaks the command word, he can force any creature from another plane into the container, provided that creature fails a Will saving throw (DC 19). The range of this effect is 60 feet. Only one creature at a time can be so contained. Loosing the stopper frees the captured creature.
If the individual freeing the captured creature speaks the command word, the creature can be forced to serve for 1 hour. If freed without the command word, the creature acts according to its natural inclinations. (It usually attacks the user, unless it perceives a good reason not to.) Any attempt to force the same creature into the flask a second time allows it a +2 bonus on its saving throw and makes it very angry and totally hostile.

Keoghtom's Spidery Map

This large, weathered bit of cloth appears covered in intermeshing spider's silk. It has been folded many times over and bears an ever-changing nonsensical mass of blurred lines, shapes, and symbols. Those who study the exploits of the Company of Seven often describe Keoghtom as the most inventive and assiduous of the group. The demigod Zagyg only confides in Keoghtom and respects his judgment greatly. In addition, save only Nolzur, Keoghtom enjoys good terms with the rest of the company and is even accorded a friend of the mage Mordenkainen. Keoghtom's many discoveries have benefited the cultures of the Flanaess significantly - especially his balms and curatives. The map that bears his name is no exception. Fharlanghn, whose friendship with the bard Reward is long and deep, facilitated its creation by allowing Keoghtom a perusal of the famed Oerthdisc. The resulting map proved so useful that cartographers and sages suggest dozens of copies exist across the Flanaess.
In order to use it, you need only concentrate upon the map, searching your mind for a location, creature, or object. The map then acts as a find the path spell, showing in great detail the shortest, most direct physical route to the specified destination. You can only use the map once per day, and all other paths or locations on the map appear as an ever-changing blurred mass of webs.
The map refuses to locate Keoghtom, the path to his extradimensional home, nor indeed the location of any being who carries the rank of deity. It cannot see beyond the bounds of the current plane of existence.

Libram of Flesh

This weighty tome details the creation of flesh golems. Additionally, the magical inscriptions of the libram allow the reader to create a flesh golem even if not a 14th-level arcane spellcaster. The reader gains a +2 bonus to effective caster level for the purpose of making golems and can emulate knowledge of the requisite spells necessary to create a flesh golem. Thus, an 11th-level arcane spellcaster still couldn't create a golem using the libram, though a 12th-level spellcaster could, because 14th level is the minimum to create a flesh golem.
Flesh golems created using the libram of flesh retain up to five abilities from one of the donor bodies used in the golem's creation, which are layered on the flesh golem as if using a template. The DM determines which abilities of a donor body are appropriate, and which are inappropriate, which abilities stack, and which do not.
Each time a flesh golem is created using the libram, enchantment visibly drains from the book as inscriptions fade. When first created, a libram of flesh has enough magical power to create seven golems. After this time, the book falls into ruin.

Lyre of Building

If the proper chords are struck, a single use of this lyre negates any attacks made against all inanimate construction (walls, roof, floor, and so on) within 300 feet. This includes the effects of a horn of blasting, a disintegrate spell, or an attack from a ram or similar siege weapon. The lyre can be used in this way once per day, with the protection lasting for 30 minutes.
The lyre is also useful with respect to building. Once a week its strings can be strummed so as to produce chords that magically construct buildings, mines, tunnels, ditches, or whatever. The effect produced in but 30 minutes of playing is equal to the work of 100 humans laboring for three days. Each hour after the first, a character playing the lyre must make a Perform check (DC 18). If it fails, she must stop and cannot play it again for this purpose until a week has passed.

Mask of the Skull

This ivory mask has been fashioned into the likeness of a human skull. Once per day, after it has been worn for at least 1 hour, the mask can be loosed to fly from the wearer's face. It travels up to 50 feet away from the wearer and attacks a target assigned to it. The grinning skull mask makes a touch attack against the target. If it succeeds, the target must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 20) or be struck dead, as if affected by a finger of death spell. If the target succeeds at his saving throw, he nevertheless takes 3d6+13 points of damage. After attacking (whether successful or not), the mask flies back to its user.

Mirror of Life Trapping

This crystal device is usually about 4 feet square and framed in metal or wood. It can be affixed to a surface and activated by giving a command word. The same command word deactivates the mirror. A mirror of life trapping has from thirteen to eighteen non-spatial extradimensional compartments within it. Any creature coming within 30 feet of the device and looking at its reflection must make a Will save (DC 19) or be trapped within the mirror in one of the cells. A creature not aware of the nature of the device always sees its reflection. The probability of a creature seeing its reflection, and thus needing to make the saving throw, drops to 50% if the creature is aware that the mirror traps life and seeks to avoid looking at it (treat as a gaze attack).
When a creature is trapped, it is taken bodily into the mirror. Size is not a factor, but constructs and undead are not trapped, nor are inanimate objects and other nonliving matter. A victim's equipment (including clothing and anything being carried) remains behind. If the mirror's owner knows the right command word, he can call the reflection of any creature trapped within to its surface and engage his powerless prisoner in conversation. Another command word frees the trapped creature. Each pair of command words is specific to each prisoner.
If the mirror's capacity is exceeded, one victim (determined randomly) is set free in order to accommodate the latest one. If the mirror is broken, all victims currently trapped in it are freed and usually promptly attack the possessor of the device in revenge for their imprisonment.

Mirror of Opposition

This item resembles a normal mirror about 4 feet long and 3 feet wide. It can be affixed to a surface and activated by speaking a command word. The same command word deactivates the mirror.

The duplicate has all the possessions and powers of its original (including magic). Upon the defeat or destruction of either the duplicate or the original, the duplicate and her items disappear completely The mirror functions up to four times per day.

Murlynd's Hat

This wide-brimmed leather hat has a tall crown with a crease down the middle. A trio of small, gold rings pierces the hat's brim along one side. Murlynd is perhaps the Company of Seven's most unusual personality, which in a group that includes Zagig Yragerne is quite a boast! Once a mortal paladin of Heironeous, Murlynd has grown into a celebrated personage with a following of paladins of his own. Few scholars of the company know Murlynd is a formidable mage and inventor in his own right. His travels to other worlds have won him knowledge of unique magic items unseen on Oerth, including the leather chapeaux he made famous. Rarely seen without one, on occasion he loses one of his hats to expedience and must craft another. His enemies span many worlds and he always keeps them guessing as to what astonishment might come out of one of his many hats. The following example details only one of the hats he wears. The abilities of the others are not widely known.
This hat affords you a +2 insight bonus to Armor Class and on all Will saves made against charms or mind-affecting enchantments. It also allows you to cast fabricate three times per day.

Murlynd's Rattlesnake Whip

This rattlesnake-skin whip is tipped with the filed-down fangs of several snakes. Murlynd did not fashion this weapon, but rather he discovered it on a distant world desperately in need of heroes that he frequents. The whip is a marvel, but because of the six-shooters and fabulous dancing sword he carries it often goes unnoticed. It has, however, saved Murlynd's life on more than one occasion.
The prehensile whip extends at your command to grasp items, operate levers, or pull door handles. It can even lower you as a rope and pulley, but it also has use as an offensive weapon. This +3 disarming sweeping whip grants you a +2 competence bonus on disarm attempts and a +2 competence bonus on Strength checks made to trip an opponent with it. Opponents cannot disarm you of this weapon. In addition, the whip grants you the ability to grapple any target at a range of 10 feet with a successful grapple check.

Murlynd's Spoon

This unremarkable eating utensil is typically fashioned from horn. If the spoon is placed in an empty container - a bowl, a cup, or a dish, for example - the vessel fills with a thick, pasty gruel. Although this substance has a flavor similar to that of warm, wet cardboard, it is highly nourishing and contains everything necessary to sustain any herbivorous, omnivorous, or carnivorous creature. The spoon can produce sufficient gruel each day to feed up to four humans.

Necklace of Fireballs

This device appears to be nothing but a cheap medallion or piece of valueless jewelry. If a character places it about her neck, however, all can see the necklace as it really is - a golden chain from which hang a number of golden spheres. The spheres are detachable by the wearer (and only by the wearer), who can easily hurl them up to a 70-foot distance. When a sphere arrives at the end of its trajectory, it bursts as a magic fireball (DC 14). The number of spheres on each type of necklace, and their respective Hit Dice of fireball damage, are as follows:

For example, a Type III necklace has seven spheres - one 7-dice, two 5-dice, and four 3-dice fireballs.
The more dice of damage a sphere deals, the bigger it is. If the necklace is being worn or carried by a character who fails her saving throw against a magic fire attack, the item must make a saving throw as well (with a bonus of +7). If the necklace fails to save, all of its remaining spheres detonate simultaneously, often with regrettable consequences for the wearer.

Nolzur's Marvelous Pigments

These magic emulsions enable their possessor to create actual, permanent objects simply by depicting their form in two dimensions. The pigments are applied by a stick tipped with bristles, hair, or fur. The emulsion flows from the application to form the desired object as the artist concentrates on the desired image. One pot of Nolzur's marvelous pigments is sufficient to create a 1,000-cubic-foot object by depicting it two-dimensionally over a 100-square-foot surface. Thus, a 10-foot-by-10-foot rendition of a pit would result in an actual 10-foot-by-10-foot-by-10-foot pit; a 10-foot-by-10-foot depiction of a room would result in a 10-foot-by-10-foot-by-10-foot room; and so on.
Only normal, inanimate objects can be created - doors, pits, flowers, trees, cells, and so on. Creatures can't be created. The pigments must be applied to a surface (a floor, wall, ceiling, door, etc.). It takes 10 minutes to depict an object with the pigments. Nolzur's marvelous pigments cannot create magic items. Objects of value depicted by the pigments-precious metals, gems, jewelry, ivory, and so on - appear to be valuable but are really made of tin, lead, paste, brass, bone, and other such inexpensive materials. The user can create normal weapons, armor, and other mundane items whose value does not exceed 2,000 gp.
Items created are not magical; the effect is instantaneous.

Nolzur's Orb

This crystal orb, awash with a swirl of colors at its center, bears a crack along one side. The colors within seem to leak out, like paint. Nolzur of Radigast City became a famed illusionist and alchemist as a member of the Company of Seven, but his legacy is often overshadowed by those of his compatriots. Nolzur and Keoghtom fell out more than a century ago, as the latter reputedly borrowed one of Nolzur's formulas to aid in his creation of the celebrated ointment that bears his name. Nolzur has yet to forgive him and his reclusion has caused his fame to fade over time. Few know that he began life as a thief or that his early travels took him far and wide, including to Blackmoor and the Pirate Isles of the Densac Gulf. He is most famous for the magical pigments that he developed, but he has numerous creations to his name, including this silvery sphere.
Nolzur's orb continually seeps oily paints that act as Nolzur's marvelous pigments 1/day. The paints issuing from the orb may also be used in creating elaborate guises, granting you a +10 competence bonus on all Disguise checks for up to 30 minutes, so long as the paints remain dry. Finally, you can fling the paints 1/day to create a prismatic spray with a range of 60 feet. If the paints are stored in any other device or container they lose all properties except those normally bestowed by Nolzur's marvelous pigments.

Pipes of Pain

These appear to be like any other standard set of pipes with nothing to reveal their true nature. When played by a person who has the Perform (pan pipes) skill, the pipes create a wondrous melody. All within 30 feet, including the piper, must make a Will save (DC 14) or be enchanted by the sound. (This is a mind-affecting sonic enchantment.) So long as the pipes are played, none of the creatures so enchanted attack or attempt any action (as if they are dazed). If the piper is enchanted, however, he plays on for 1d10 rounds.
As soon as the piping stops, all those affected are stricken by intense pain at even the slightest noise. Unless a character is in a totally silent area, she takes 1d4 points of damage per round for 2d4 rounds. During this time, damage from sonic attacks, such as sound burst, is doubled. Thereafter, the least noise causes an affected character to wince, giving her a -2 penalty to attack rolls, skill checks, and saving throws (except when she is in a totally silent area). This hypersensitivity is a curse and therefore hard to remove (see the bestow curse spell).

For each 50-foot distance the rats have to travel, there is a 1-round delay The piper must continue playing until the rats appear, and when they do so, the piper must make a Perform (pan pipes) check (DC 10). Success means that they obey the piper's telepathic commands so long as he continues to play. Failure indicates that they turn on the piper. If for any reason the piper ceases playing, the rats leave immediately. If they are called again within a day, the Perform check is against DC 15. If the rats are under the control of another creature, add the HD of the controller to the Perform check DC. Once control is assumed, another check is required each round to maintain it if the other creature is actively seeking to reassert its control.

Pixie Dust

This sparkling, silvery dust is created by several different fey but primarily used by pixies. It comes in long, thin, silvery tubes. A single tube's contents finely coat a 5-foot square, and any passage through the area stirs up the dust for 1d6 rounds. Alternatively, the contents of a tube can be blown at a target creature as a ranged touch attack (maximum range 5 feet). A creature that stirs up the dust or is targeted by someone wielding a tube of the dust must make a successful Fortitude save (DC is) or begin shrinking to the size of a grig (Tiny). In addition, the creature acts as though under the effect of a charm person spell from a 9th-level caster, obeying the person who spread the dust. Both effects last for 9 hours before restoring the person to normal.

Portable Bridge

Once per day on command, this tiny statue of a bridge can turn into a fully functioning bridge. The bridge is always 5 feet wide and can extend in length from 5 feet to 50 feet. It takes a full round for the bridge to extend, regardless of the length of the bridge. The owner can choose which side the bridge retracts to, making it ideal for crossing chasms and leaving pursuers behind.
The statue must be placed on solid rock or earth to work. Ideally, there should be equally solid rock or earth on the other side. If there is not stable ground on the other side (it reaches maximum range and doesn't touch anything, there is loose sand, and so on), the bridge spends another round retracting to its statue form.
The bridge can be destroyed through disintegrate or by normal means such as breaking and chipping. Each 5-foot square has 75 hit points and a hardness of 8.

Portable Hole

A portable hole is a circle of cloth spun from the webs of a phase spider interwoven with strands of ether and beams of starlight. When opened fully, a portable hole is 6 feet in diameter, but it can be folded up to be as small as a pocket handkerchief. When spread upon any surface, it causes an extradimensional space 10 feet deep to come into being. This hole can be picked up from inside or our by simply taking hold of the edges of the cloth and folding it up. Either way, the entrance disappears, but anything inside the hole remains.
The only air in the hole is that which enters when the hole is opened. It contains enough air to supply one Medium-size creature or two Small creatures for 10 minutes. The cloth does not accumulate weight even if its hole is filled (with gold, for example). Each portable hole opens on its own particular nondimensional space. If a bag of holding is placed within a portable hole, a rift to the Astral Plane is torn in that place. Both the bag and the cloth are sucked into the void and forever lost. If a portable hole is placed within a bag of holding, it opens a gate to the Astral Plane. The hole, the bag, and any creatures within a 10-foot radius are drawn there, the portable hole and bag of holding being destroyed in the process.

Powder of the Black Veil

A pinch of this sooty, black powder cast into an area creates a 10-foot-high cloud in a 10-foot spread centered on the user. The cloud remains in place for 2d4 rounds, and any creature caught in the area (or one that enters it) is blinded for as long as it stays in the cloud and for 1d4 rounds after it leaves unless it succeeds on a DC 13 Will save.

This large glass jar has been magically treated to preserve any organic material placed in it. The jar can hold the equivalent of 2 gallons of liquid. Anything small enough to fit in the jar does not rot, age, or wilt. The lid must be placed securely on the top for the effect to work.
A Tiny or smaller creature can be placed in the jar, but without a supply of air and food it eventually dies, although the corpse never rots.

Quaal's Cloak

This snow-white feathered half-cloak appears to be losing the feathers that cover its leathery underlayer. Quaal is a ranger of Flan descent who originated in the north with the woodsmen of the Vesve Forest. He fought alongside the paladin Murlynd as an early member of the Company of Seven, but he soon tired of the company's travels and esoteric self-indulgences and returned to Oerth to defend the Wolf Nomads and Rovers from the depredations of Blackmoor. Re eventually returned to his homeland, where he organized a society of rangers and constructed the town of Quaalsten.
Quaal devised this cloak for himself. As he withdrew from active life, he granted copies of it to rangers and swanmays who earned his favor through their efforts against the tide of darkness that has swept over the north in the last two centuries. This cloak continually protects its wearer with a feather fall spell. In addition, any feather removed from the cloak acts as a Quaal's feather token. Each feather removed in this fashion drains one charge from the cloak. The cloak begins with 50 charges.

Quaal's Feather Token

Each of these items is a small feather that has a power to suit a special need. The types of tokens are described below. Each token is usable but once.
Anchor: A token useful to moor a craft in water so as to tender it immobile for up to one day.
Bird: A token that can be used to deliver a small written message unerringly to a designated target as would a carrier pigeon. The token lasts as long as it takes to carry the message.
Fan: A token that forms a huge flapping fan, causing a breeze of sufficient strength to propel one ship (about 25 mph). This wind is not cumulative with existing wind speed - if a severe wind is already blowing, this wind cannot be added to it to create a windstorm. The token can, however, be used to lessen existing winds, creating an area of relative calm or lighter winds (but wave size in a storm is not affected). The fan can be used up to 8 hours. It does not function on land.
Swan Boat: A token that forms a huge swanlike boat capable of moving on water at a speed of 60 feet. It can carry eight horses and gear or thirty-two Medium-size characters or any equivalent combination. The boat lasts for one day.
Tree: A token that causes a great oak to spring into being (6-foot-diameter trunk, 60-foot height, 40-foot top diameter). This is an instantaneous effect.
Whip: A token that forms into a huge leather whip and wields itself against any opponent desired just like a dancing weapon (see Dancing weapon). The weapon has a +10 base attack bonus, does 1d6+1 points of base damage, has a +1 enhancement bonus to attacks and damage, and a makes a free grapple attack (at a +15 attack bonus) if it hits. The whip lasts no longer than 1 hour.

Quiver of Ehlonna

This appears robe a typical arrow container capable of holding about 20 arrows. Examination shows that it has three distinct portions, each with an extradimensional space allowing it to store far more than would normally be possible. The first and smallest one can contain up to 60 objects of the same general size and shape as an arrow. The second slightly longer compartment holds up to 18 objects of the same general size and shape as a javelin. The third and longest portion of the case contains as many as six objects of the same general size and shape as a bow (spears, staffs, etc.). Once the owner has filled it, she can command the quiver each round to produce any stored items she wishes.

Restricting Band

This plain, 1-foot diameter, 1-inch-thick steel band grows and shrinks on verbal command. Its maximum size is 5 feet in diameter but retains the same thickness. It can shrink to the size of a ring, reducing in thickness accordingly. If placed around a person, say to bind their arms to their sides, it can be sized to fit snugly around them. The band never shrinks to the point where it deals damage; it's simply uncomfortably tight. It requires an Escape Artist check (DC 30) to wiggle out of a restricting band placed around the body and arms (DC 25 when the band is placed around arms or legs only).

Ring Gates

These always come in pairs - two iron rings, each about 14 inches in diameter. The rings must be within 100 miles of each other to function. Whatever is put through one ring comes out the other, and up to 100 pounds of material can be transferred each day (Objects only partially pushed through do not count.) This useful device allows for instantaneous transport of items, messages, and even attacks. A character can reach through to grab things near the other ring, or even stab a weapon through if so desired. Alternatively, a character could stick his head through to look around. A spellcaster could even cast a spell through a ring gate. A Small character can make an Escape Artist check (DC 13) to slip through. Creatures of Tiny, Diminutive, or Fine size can pass through easily. Each ring has a "entry side" and an "exit side," both marked with appropriate symbols.

Robe of Bones

This handy item functions much like a robe of useful items for the serious necromancer. It appears to be an unremarkable robe, but a character who dons it notes that it is adorned with small embroidered figures representing undead creatures. Only the wearer of the robe can see the embroidery and recognize them for the creatures they become, and detach them. One figure can be detached each round. Detaching a figure causes it to become an actual undead creature (see the list below). The skeleton or zombie is not under the control of the wearer of the robe, but may be subsequently commanded, rebuked, turned, or destroyed. A newly created robe of bones always has two embroidered figures of each of the following undead:

Robe of Blending

When this robe is put on, the wearer intuitively knows that the garment has very special properties. A robe of blending enables its wearer to appear to be part of his surroundings. This allows her to add a +15 circumstance bonus to her Hide check.
Further, the wearer can adopt the appearance of another creature as in the spell change self at will. All creatures acquainted with and friendly to the wearer see him normally.

Robe of Eyes

This valuable garment appears to be a normal robe until it is put on. Its wearer is able to see in all directions at the same moment due to scores of visible, magical eyelike patterns that adorn the robe. She also gains darkvision (range 120 feet). The robe of eyes sees all forms of invisible or ethereal things within 120 feet. The robe of eyes grants its wearer a +15 circumstance bonus to Search and Spot checks. She retains her Dexterity bonus to AC even when flat-footed and can't be flanked. The wearer can't avert her eyes from or close her eyes to a creature with a gaze attack.
A light or continual flame spell thrown directly on a robe of eyes blinds it for 1d3 minutes. A daylight spell blinds it for 2d4 minutes.

Robe of Scintillating Colors

The wearer can cause the garment to become a shifting pattern of incredible hues, color after color cascading from the upper part of the robe to the hem in sparkling rainbows of dazzling light. The colors daze those near the wearer, conceal the wearer, and illuminate the surroundings. It takes 1 full round after the wearer speaks the command word for the colors to start flowing on the robe.
The colors create the equivalent of a gaze attack with a 30-foot range. Those who look at the wearer are dazed for 1d4+1 rounds (Will negates DC 14). This is a mind-affecting pattern.
Every round of continuous scintillation of the robe gives the wearer better concealment. Miss chances start at 10% (one-quarter concealment) and increase another 10% each round until they reach 50% (full concealment).
The robe illuminates a 30-foot radius. The effect can last no longer than a total of 10 rounds per day.

If a white robe is donned by an evil character, she immediately gains three negative levels. The reverse is true with respect to a black robe donned by a good character. An evil or good character who puts on a gray robe, or a neutral character who dons either a white or black robe, gains two negative levels. While negative levels never result in lost levels, they remain as long as the garment is worn and cannot be overcome in any way (including restoration spells).

Robe of the Mad Archmage

This plain dark gray robe, trimmed in silver embroidered sigils, bears no other decoration or imagery. This robe was once the possession of the Grey Savant, reputedly a mystic theurge of Boccob who supervised the Academy of Art and Science of Greyhawk. Upon his death, the school was renamed the Grey College in his honor and his magical robe passed to his star pupil, Zagig Yragerne. The robe of the mad archmage is an intelligent robe of blending that also grants a +2 bonus on rolls to defeat a creature's spell resistance and a insight bonus to your Armor Class and on all saving throws. Three times per day, you may cast a quickened spell of up to 9th level without increasing the spell level or your casting time. Spells already prepared or affected by a metamagic feat may not be quickened in this fashion. Finally, you may store up to 10 spell levels of spells in the robe, as a ring of spell storing.
The robe of the mad archmage's ability scores are Intelligence 18, Wisdom 10, and Charisma 18. It can speak Abyssal, Ancient Suloise, Celestial, Common, Draconic, and Flan, and it can also communicate telepathically. It can see (with darkvision) and hear up to 120 feet; it also has blindsense with a range of 120 feet. A personality conflict occurs any time you attempt to remove the robe to don another magical garment. The robe of the mad archmage's alignment is chaotic neutral, and its primary emotion is a curious longing, typically directed at magical treasure or arcane lore.

Rope of Climbing

A 60-foot-long rope of climbing is no thicker than a slender wand, but it is strong enough to support 3,000 pounds. Upon command, the rope snakes forward, upward, downward, or in any other direction at 10 feet per round, attaching itself securely wherever its owner desires. It can unfasten itself and return in the same manner.
A rope of climbing can be commanded to knot or unknot itself. This causes large knots to appear at 1-foot intervals along the rope. Knotting shortens the rope to a 50-foot length until the knots are untied but lowers the DC of Climb checks while using it by 10. A creature must hold one end of the rope when its magic is invoked.

The rope cannot be broken by sheer strength. It must be severed by an edged weapon. The rope has an AC of 22, 12 hit points, and a hardness of 10. Damage repairs itself at a rate of 1 point per 5 minutes, but if a rope of entanglement is severed (all 12 hit points lost to damage), it is destroyed.

Rug of Welcome

This finely crafted rug looks like a normal floor covering, 5 feet wide and 10 feet long. When commanded to guard an area, it animates and attempts to grab, then grapple any large or smaller creature that steps on it. The owner can set a password to allow creatures to pass without causing the rug to attack, and can command the rug from up to 30 feet away (though the owner need not be present for the rug to attack). The rug can attack one creature at a time; unless it is destroyed, it continues to attempt to grapple or hold its target until commanded to release.

Seeds of the Treant

Singing Bowl

Carved from a single piece of flawless crystal (10 hardness, 10 hp), this bowl comes with a smooth, thick wooden stick. Running the stick slowly along the edge of the bowl produces a clear, vibrating hum. The volume can range from barely audible to intensely loud. While the bowl is being played, spells in a 30-foot radius with a verbal component are prevented as though under the effect of a silence spell. Spells cast with the Silent Spell feat still work, however. The bowl's effect can be activated with any stick - the one provided has no special abilities. It requires at least 1 rank of Performance (any percussion instrument).
In addition, the bowl can cast shatter and blindness/deafness (deafness only) once per day as a 12th-level bard.

Skeleton Key

This unusual object has two distinct parts: a small metal handle and a thin blade about 4 inches long. The blade is made of a shiny blue material whose surface ripples and shifts like the surface of water. The skeleton key is an unusual item commonly found in the possession of doppelgangers and their ilk, who have an affinity with its shapeshifting properties. When inserted into a common door lock, the blade ripples and writhes into the precise shape of the key needed to open the lock, even if the lock is much bigger or much smaller than the blade. Any lock that can be unlocked with a physical key can also be unlocked with a skeleton key.

Skull of Dragonform

Crafted from the skulls of the mightiest dragons, magically resized to fit over a humanoid-sized head, these items are among the most sought-after of the order's creations - for who has not wished to be a dragon? This item comes in five varieties, each crafted from the skull of a different-colored chromatic dragon. Once per day, the wearer may transform into a juvenile dragon of the appropriate kind. This effect lasts for 1 hour, although it may be dismissed at any time as a standard action. The effect functions as the polymorph spell (caster level 17th, without the HD restriction), except that the wearer gains the breath weapon of the dragon he becomes, as well as its sensory abilities (darkvision, keen senses, blindsense, and so on).

Sleeping Spike

This twisted ashen spike displays no magical properties until activated. The spike does nothing until it is planted firmly in the ground (a standard action). One round later, the spike becomes invisible. Any creature that thereafter comes within 10 feet of the spike causes it to emit a sleep effect (Will DC 17 negates) in a 20-foot-radius burst, affecting all creatures with 10 Hit Dice or fewer. This effect destroys the spike.

Sovereign Glue

This pale amber substance is thick and viscous. Because of its particular powers, it can be contained only in a flask whose inside has been coated with 1 ounce of oil of slipperiness, and each time any of the bonding agent is poured from the flask, a new application of the oil of slipperiness must be put in the flask within 1 round so prevent the remaining glue from adhering to the side of the container. A flask of sovereign glue, when found, holds anywhere from 1 to 7 ounces of the stuff (1d8-1, minimum 1), with the other ounce of the flask's capacity taken up by the oil of slipperiness.
One ounce of this adhesive covers 1 square foot of surface, bonding virtually any two substances together in a permanent union. The glue takes 1 round to set. If the objects are pulled apart before that time has elapsed, that application of the glue loses its stickiness and is worthless. If the glue is allowed to set, then attempting to separate the two bonded objects only results in the rending of one or the other, except when universal solvent is applied to the bond. (Sovereign glue is dissolved by universal solvent.)

Sparring Dummy of the Master

This battered wooden dummy is designed for monks to practice their striking and blocking techniques. It consists of a plain round wooden post that stands 6 feet high and 1 foot thick. Six smaller posts stick out horizontally from the post, roughly representing a defending enemy's limbs.
To gain the benefit of its magic, a person with at least one level in monk must train with the dummy 8 hours a day for four weeks. If the training is ever interrupted for more than a 24 hours, she must begin again. If this training is interrupted twice, the monk can never gain the benefit of the sparring dummy.
Once she has completed the required training, the monk is allowed to make a 10-foot adjustment whenever she can normally make a 5 foot adjustment.

Starry Score

This scroll is made from soft white vellum. When unrolled, it reveals dense silver writing in an unknown language. The starry score is a portion of a great opera performed by the eladrin to please their mistress, the Queen of Stars. A good-aligned bard who spends a use of bardic music can discern the words and notes recorded and perform them as a full-round action by making a Perform check. All evil outsiders who can clearly hear the bard perform and are within 30 feet must succeed on Will saves (DC equals the bard's perform check result) or be physically pained, taking a -5 penalty on attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, and checks. Conversely, all good outsiders gain a +5 sacred bonus on attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, and checks. Both effects last for as long as you continue to perform and for 3 rounds thereafter.

Steadfast Stone

This dwarven item is commonly given out to dwarven defenders and other tunnel guards who require instant fortifications. The steadfast stone is a granite cube, 1 inch on each side, with runes indicating "growth" written on all sides. When thrown upon the ground and the command word uttered, the cube grows as a wall of stone cast by a 9th-level cleric. The stone can grow up to two times per day. The wall lasts for up to 24 hours or until the command word is uttered, causing it to shrink back into cube form.

Stone Horse

Each item of this nature appears to be a full-sized, roughly hewn statue of a horse, carved from some type of hard stone. A command word brings the steed to life, enabling it to carry a burden and even to attack as if it were a real horse of the appropriate type.
A stone horse can carry 1,000 pounds tirelessly and never needs to rest or feed. Damage dealt to it can be repaired by first using a stone to flesh spell, thus causing the stone horse to become a normal horse that can be healed normally. When fully healed, it automatically reverts to its stone form. While in its stone form, it can be fed gemstones, healing 1 point of damage for each 50 gp worth of mineral it is given.
There are two sorts of stone horses:

Stone of Controlling Earth Elementals

A stone of this nature is typically an oddly shaped bit of roughly polished rock. The possessor of such a stone need but utter a few words of summoning, and a Huge earth elemental comes to the summoner if earth, mud, or clay is available. The summoning words require 1 full round to speak, and in all ways the stone functions as the summon monster VII spell. (If sand or rough, unhewn stone is the summoning medium, the elemental that comes is Large instead, and the stone functions as the summon monster VI spell.) The area of summoning for an earth elemental must be at least 4 feet square and have a volume of 4 cubic yards. The elemental appears in 1d4 rounds. For detailed information about elementals, see the Monster Manual. Only one elemental can be summoned at a time. A new elemental requires a new patch of earth or stone, which cannot be accessed until after the first elemental disappears (is dispelled, dismissed, or slain).

The heat of the flame is equivalent to a torch, although the flame's size (and the light it produces) is the same as a candle. The metal of the box remains slightly warm to the touch, whether the flaps are open or not.

Strand of Prayer Beads

This item appears to be a normal string of prayer beads until, the owner casts a divine spell. Once that occurs, the owner instantly knows the powers of the prayer beads and how to activate them.
Each strand includes two on more special beads, each with a different magic power.

Special Bead TypeSpecial Bead Ability
Bead of blessingWearer can cast bless.
Bead of healingWearer can cast his choice of cure serious wounds, remove blindness/deafness, or remove disease.
Bead of karmaWearer casts his spells at +4 caster level. Effect lasts 10 minutes.
Bead of smitingWearer can cast chaos hammer, holy smite, order's wrath, or unholy blight (Will DC 17 partial).
Bead of summonsSummons a powerful creature of appropriate alignment from the Outer Planes (an angel, devil, etc.) to aid the wearer for one day. (If the wearer uses the bead of summons to summon a deity's emissary frivolously, the deity takes that character's items and places a geas upon him as punishment in the very least.)
Bead of wind walkingWearer can cast wind walk.

A lesser strand of prayer beads has a bead of blessing and a bead of healing. A strand of prayer beads has a bead of healing, a bead of karma, and a bead of smiting. A greater strand of prayer beads has a bead of healing, a bead of karma, a bead of summons, and a bead of wind walking.
Each special bead can be used once per day, except for the bead of summons, which works only once and then becomes nonmagical. The beads of blessing, smiting, and wind walking function as spell trigger items; the beads of karma and summons can be activated by any character capable of casting divine spells. The owner need not hold or wear the strand of prayer beads in any specific location, as long as he carries it somewhere on his person.
The power of a special bead is lost if it is removed from the strand. Reduce the price of a strand of prayer beads that is missing one or more beads by the following amount: bead of blessing -600 gp, bead of healing -9,000 gp, bead of karma -20,000 gp, bead of smiting -16,800 gp, bead of summons -20,000 gp, bead of wind walking -46,800 gp.

However, when held by an arcane spellcaster who is concentrating on control of a sphere of annihilation, a talisman of the sphere doubles the bonus for Intelligence and level for determining control.
If the wielder of a talisman establishes control, he need check for continual control only every other round thereafter. If control is not established, the sphere moves toward him. Note that while many spells and effects of cancellation have no effect upon a sphere of annihilation, the talisman's power of control can be suppressed or canceled.

Thought Bottle

A flask of thick green glass, a thought bottle can be used to store thoughts, memories, experience, or spells. A single bottle can hold five thoughts or memories at a time, or a single creature's current experience, or a single spellcaster's collection of prepared spells. Any individual that touches the bottle and speaks the command word instantly gains a general knowledge of the bottle's contents, but doesn't actually access the thoughts, memories, or spells within until she consciously decides to do so. Storing or retrieving anything from a thought bottle requires a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity.
Thoughts: The bottle can store specific ideas, communications, or conclusions. Once a memory is stored, it disappears from the user's mind, but she remembers the general nature of the stored thought. For example, if the user stored the name of a murderer, that name would disappear from her memory and be unrecoverable from her own mind by any means, though she would know that the thought bottle now contains the murderer's name. Similarly, secret messages and intelligence can be hidden in a thought bottle to pass them to someone else.
Memories: The user's recollection of a single day's events can be stored in the bottle. Once stored, the user remembers the general nature of the memory ("the day we performed the Ritual of Binding") but loses all details of the event itself.
Experience: A thought bottle can be used to offset level loss as a restoration spell can, but is effective against level loss that even restoration can't undo (including levels lost due to death, but not the negative levels bestowed by magic items such as a holy weapon). When a user's experience has been stored within the bottle, he can subsequently access the bottle to restore his XP total to exactly what it was when it was last stored, negating any levels lost in the interim. Storing experience in the bottle is difficult, and the user must pay 500 XP (deducted before storing) to do so. Only the creature that stored experience can retrieve it, but if the bottle is destroyed or lost, the user suffers no ill effects.
Spells: An owner who prepares spells can store some or all of her memorized spells in a thought bottle. Any spell she puts into the thought bottle is expended as if she had cast it, but the spells in the bottle can then be retrieved at any later date to be prepared as normal. Wizards often use this function of the bottle to create a kind of backup spellbook, concealing thought bottles in well hidden boltholes against the eventuality of their grimoires being stolen or destroyed. Only the character who stored the spells can retrieve them, and if the bottle is destroyed, the stored spells are lost with no effect.

Triton Shell

Created by tritons, these backpacks are made from single giant shells. They have been magically treated to keep anything placed inside perfectly dry and protected from pressures of the ocean. Due to the shape and composition of the shell, it does not hinder the wearer's ability to swim underwater.
Some versions of this magical device are enchanted with gust of wind, allowing Tiny or smaller air-breathing creatures to survive inside the shell.

Unguent of Timelessness

When applied to any matter that was once alive (leather, leaves, paper, wood, dead flesh, and so on), this ointment allows that substance to resist the passage of time. Each year of actual time affects the substance as if only a day had passed. The coated object gains a +1 resistance bonus on all saving throws. The unguent never wears off, although it can be magically removed (by dispelling the effect, for instance). One flask contains enough material to coat eight Medium or smaller objects. A Large object counts as two Medium objects, and a Huge object counts as two Large objects.

Universal Solvent

This strange liquid appears to be some sort of minor oil or potion and always comes in containers of 1 ounce. Upon first examination, it seems to have the properties of oil of slipperiness. However, if it is applied to any form of adhesive or sticky material, the solution immediately dissolves the other material. It immediately negates the effect of sovereign glue, as well as any other form of cement, glue, or adhesive. An ounce affects 1 cubic foot.
If the liquid is carefully distilled to bring it down to one-third of its original volume, each dose (1/3 ounce, having been a full ounce before distillation) dissolves 1 cubic foot of organic or inorganic material, just as if a disintegrate spell had been employed. To find out if a resisting target is affected by this concentrated solution, a touch attack roll is required, and the subject is entitled to a Fortitude saving throw (DC 19).

Well of Many Worlds

This strange, interdimensional device looks just like a portable hole. Anything placed within it is immediately cast to another world-a parallel world, another planet, or a different plane, at the DM's option or by random determination. If the well is moved, the random factor again comes into play. It can be picked up, folded, or rolled, just like a portable hole. Objects from the world the well touches can come through the opening just as easily as from the initiating place. (It is a two-way portal.)

Yondalla's Wagon Wheel

Created by adepts of Yondalla, one of these small amulets is in the shape of a wagon wheel. Throwing it upon the ground and uttering a command word causes the wheel to grow into a normal-sized covered wagon. It can remain in that form indefinitely, until the command word is uttered again. Once per day, the amulet (in wagon form only) can create Leomund's secure shelter as the spell from a 9th-level caster. The shelter's outside appearance blends in perfectly with the exterior of the wagon, so it is not possible to tell that the spell is in effect until someone steps inside. When the spell effect ends, the wagon remains.

Yragerne Signet

This oversized ancient golden ring bears the silver hawk crest of the Yragerne family line on its large flat top. Following the death of his father, Ganz, this ring supposedly passed on to Zagig when he became Landgraf of the Selintan. At the time, though, he had such an unheralded reputation that only his subsequent fame and fortune won him mayoralty of the city. Zagig wore the signet for a considerable time, but legends record that it was buried with his father after Zagig achieved godhood. When Castle Greyhawk unexpectedly became open to adventurers in the mid 550s CY, the ring was shortly thereafter lost or stolen. Local legends hold that it remains lost in the Mistmarsh to this day. Lord Robilar placed a bounty of 50,000 gold orbs on the retrieval of this ring.
By rights, the wearer of this ring could be recognized as the highest-ranking noble in the Free City, perhaps answering only to the Directing Oligarchy itself. Certain ancient stone portals sprinkled around various old building in the Free City appear to have locks shaped exactly like the carving on this signet and have proved otherwise impossible to open.
The Yragerne signet provides continuous protection from evil and protection from good effects. Further, once per day you can spin the ring facedown to activate a death ward effect.

Wondrous Items of Faerûn

Amber Acorns of the Moonwood Circle

The amber acorns of the Moonwood Circle are the legacy of a now-vanished circle of druids once active in the woodlands west of Silverymoon.
The amber acorns look like a necklace of four acorns strung on a cord of woven roots. As with a necklace of prayer beads, once the wearer casts a divine spell, this item's true nature becomes apparent. Each acorn is actually made of amber and contains a small piece of elemental matter (air, earth, fire, or water) encased within. Each day, the wearer of a necklace can use summon nature's ally VI once for each kind of elemental, summoning a creature appropriate to that element. (Each acorn essentially has 1 charge per day.) This item takes up space on the body as a necklace or amulet.

The powers are charm person, charm monster, disintegrate, eyebite(sleep), fear (one creature only), finger of death, flesh to stone, inflict moderate wounds (20-foot range), slow, and telekinesis (violent thrust). Effects that require a touch attack always use a ranged touch attack. The crown's powers are not limited to a certain arc as a beholder's are. When the last power is used, the crown crumbles to dust.

These items first appeared in Halruaa at the end of the Time of Troubles, which the wizards took as a sign that Mystra had returned. Each broad leather belt has a stamp of the holy symbol of a deity in the front, and followers of that deity or any of that deity's alignment can wear the belt safely.

Blast Globes

Although the secret to making these globes was known only to powerful members of the Zhentarim, the recent turmoil in that organization has allowed the process to become known to those outside the Black Network. Rumors abound that Sememmon sold the secret to get sanctuary from his enemies, which is not unlikely given that he rose quickly through the ranks of the Zhentarim by trading information on the process.
A blast globe looks like a dozen transparent glass spheres clustered into an irregular mass. Speaking the command word makes them glow, then separate and orbit each other One full round after they are activated, they can be directed by the person who spoke the command word as a free action to strike (as a group) any target or location within 400 feet. Any target struck by the blast globe must make a Fortitude save (DC 19) or be disintegrated. The globes then explode in a blast of sound and fire in a 20-foot-radius spread. Any creature in the area takes 10d6 points of fire damage and 2d6 points of sonic damage, is deafened for 2d6 rounds, and is knocked 1d6x5- feet directly away from the center of the blast. A successful Reflex save (DC 15) halves the fire damage (but not the sonic damage) and negates the knockback, while a successful Fortitude save (DC 15) negates the deafening.

Camellia of the Black Lady

A beautiful flower that beguiles - then punishes. A character who makes a DC 20 Knowledge (religion) check knows that the Black Lady was a notorious assassin and servant of Shar. She used subversion with beauty and poise, and the scent of sweet flowers. A camellia of the Black Lady is a creamy-white blossom worn in the hair, taking up space on the body as a headband or helmet. On close inspection, the inner whorls of the flower suggest unsettling, depraved forms. The item has a sweet, overpowering odor that carries a considerable distance. The flower remains perpetually fragrant and perfectly preserved. The wearer activates the blossom's dominate person power by choosing a humanoid target and pressing the stem (a standard action). The poison effect activates automatically once the dominate person effect ends.
When the designated target comes within 20 feet of the wearer, he must make a DC 19 Will save (DC 21 if Selûne is his patron deity) or be captivated by a dominate person effect. In addition, he is subjected to a remorseless charm effect (no save) that stills his moral conscience. The victim must follow the instructions of the wearer, no matter how dreadful those orders might be. The subject remains in the thrall of the wearer for nine days, until the dominate person effect is dispelled, or until the camellia of the Black Lady is destroyed. When the dominate person effect ends (either through the duration elapsing, a dispel magic effect freeing the victim, or the destruction of the flower), Shar's vengeance manifests finally as a poison spell, dealing 1d10 points of Constitution damage immediately and another 1d10 points of Constitution damage 1 minute later. Each instance of damage can be negated with a DC 19 Fortitude save (DC 21 if Selûne is the victim's patron deity). A camellia can be used only once.

Crown of the Death Dragon

Priests of Tiamat that were also members of the Cult of the Dragon created these crowns. They grant the wearer a semblance of the power of a dracolich, at the expense of spellcasting ability.
When inactive, one of these crowns looks like the skull of a Large metallic dragon. When it is donned, the wearer appears to have the head of a skeletal dragon. The wearer of a crown of the death dragon must spend 1 round exulting in the power and negative energy of the death dragon (an imagined paragon of dracoliches). At the end of this round, the wearer must proclaim, "By the prophecy of Maglas and the might of Sammaster, I command the power of the dragon of death."
Once per day, after embracing the power of the dragon of death, the wearer of a crown summons the might of the dracolich. For the following 13 rounds, he receives a +4 enhancement bonus to natural armor, a +4 deflection bonus to Armor Class, and 13 temporary hit points. He is treated as armed when making unarmed attacks, and his limbs deal damage as if they were short swords of an appropriate size. The wearer of a crown can use his off hand to attack this way, but still incurs the two-weapon fighting penalties.
The power of the death dragon prevents the wearer from casting spells with somatic, material, or focus (but not divine focus) components, but does not otherwise hinder actions or movement.
While under the, effect of the crown, the wearer can, as a standard action, project a cone of fear (Will DC 20 partial) or make a melee touch attack to use inflict critical wounds (Will DC 20 half).

Crown of the North Wind

A crown of the north wind is the traditional headgear of a humanoid servitor of Bahamut. In the past year (1373 DR), individual dragonborn have begun to receive visions leading them to the lair of a chromatic dragon whose hoard contains one of these ancient relics.
A crown of the north wind is an elegant platinum crown with five spires, each one shaped like a different metallic dragon (brass, copper, bronze, gold, and silver).
A crown of the north wind provides a +2 enhancement bonus to Charisma and radiates a continuous cloak of bravery effect when worn. (The latter effect can be consciously dismissed or resumed as a standard action.) If the crown-wearer has an energy breath weapon (acid, cold, fire, or lightning), the crown allows the wearer to substitute the secondary breath weapon of a metallic dragon, as follows:

Cone or Line of:Becomes a Cone of:
AcidSlow gas (as copper)
ColdParalyzing as (as silver)
FireSleep (as brass) or weakening (as gold)
LightningRepulsion gas (as bronze)

For effects that depend on the age category of the breather, use the wearer's age category (if he or she has one) or assume an age category of young, whichever is more favorable to the wearer. If a creature can choose among energy types for his breath weapon, then he can also choose among substitution effects.

Dove's Harp

This type of item's original name has been lost, and its current name derives from Dove Falconhand, who owns such a harp. This harp is a masterwork harp (grants a +2 circumstance bonus on Perform checks) that is triangular in shape and has from twenty to thirty-six strings. When it is played, all within a 20-foot spread are temporarily cured of any insanity (as if a greater restoration were in effect) and are protected by a calm emotions spell. Those who listen to it for 2 rounds or more receive a cure light wounds spell, although this power can only affect a being once per tenday. While its magic is being invoked, the harp and harpist radiate light. Use of the harp requires at least 1 rank of the Perform (harp) skill.

Dragonspectre Flute

The half-shadow dragon members of the Jaezred Chaulssin created these flutes to aid them in tapping into their inner reserves of shadow magic. The flutes allow them to summon forth the essence of their dragon ancestors in the form of a dragon-shaped shadow mass.
This elegant yet simple flute is carved from a single piece of ebony wood.
The user must spend 1 full round playing the flute. At the end of that round, she must sacrifice 6 hit points. These hit points cannot be healed magically; only time will repair the damage to the wielder's spirit. The wielder can use the flute up to three times per day - though this can prove draining on her life force since each time the instrument is used, there is a 5% chance that the hit point loss is permanent. After the flute is played, it summons a spectral dragon (as the spell). The player of the flute can concentrate on the dragon for up to 13 rounds. Only shadow creatures and Shadow Weave casters can use dragonspectre flutes.

Dragon Blight Bomb

When thrown, this bomb explodes into a magical cloud that inflicts grievous harm on dragons in its area.
Dragon blight bombs appear to be small, silvered glass globes, filled with a green liquid.
The user must throw the bomb so that it lands near a suitable target. Wherever the bomb lands, it produces a dragon blight effect. The thrower must make a ranged touch attack against the target. If the attack misses, use the rules for splash weapons (PH 13S). Dragons in the area take 10d6 points of damage and are stunned for 1d4 rounds. A successful DC 18 Fortitude save halves the damage and negates the stun effect. Dragonblood creatures take 1d8 points of damage and are stunned for 1d4 rounds unless they make a successful save.

Drow House Insignia

These metal tokens are normally worn on a chain or in a pouch tied around the neck. Each bears a symbol of a noble house from a particular drow city and requires a secret command word to activate. An insignia has a single minor magical ability that can be used once per day, usually a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd-level spell. Those of powerful drow often have multiple abilities of various power levels. Typical spells for a house insignia are blur, cat's grace, cloak of dark power, comprehend languages, feather fall, jump, levitate, read magic, scatterspray, shield, spider climb, unseen servant, and water breathing.
Each insignia is slightly different, even those of the same noble house, so it is possible that a person aware of the unique shape of a person's insignia can magically locate that person.

Enemy Spirit Pouch

This leather pouch is worn around the neck like a necklace and contains token items keyed to a single type of creature (aberration, animal, beast, and so on). A pouch keyed to humanoids or outsiders must follow the more narrow definition as described in the favored enemy ability for rangers in the Player's Handbook. A creature wearing an enemy spirit pouch gains a +1 competence bonus to hit creatures of that type. A ranger whose favored enemy matches that of the enemy spirit pouch is treated as five levels higher for purposes of determining his damage and skill check bonuses against that favored enemy (in effect, it increases those bonuses by +1).
If a creature of the type keyed to a pouch wears that pouch, it receives one negative level. The negative level remains as long as the pouch is worn and disappears when it is no longer carried. This negative level never results in actual level loss, but it cannot be overcome in any way (including restoration spells) while the pouch is worn.

If held in hand, the eye provides a +4 resistance bonus on all Will saves: Once per day the crystal can fire a red ray (as a ranged touched attack) that forces a doppelganger back into its true shape for 1d4+1 rounds if it fails a Fortitude saving throw (DC 16).

The eye can be commanded to wink once per tenday. The wink releases an instantaneous flash of white light as bright as a daylight spell. The wink renders the wearer immune to all spells, spell-like effects, and supernatural effects for 1 round, as if the wearer were protected by a personal antimagic field for 1 round. The wearer effectively has unbeatable spell resistance against spells and spell-like effects and a similar immunity. to supernatural effects.

Giiraegisirs vary considerably in appearance based on the house of the original owner and the aesthetics of the creator. Each is basically an oval, ivory cameo with a metal pin on the back to secure it to the wearer's clothing. The ivory surface is engraved with some sign or glyph (a house insignia, a portrait of a loved one, or the like), and hidden within the setting (Search DC 20) is a small compartment that can hold an item of up to 2 cubic inches in size.
The cameo is affixed to the setting via a small, sliding track. Pulling the ivory cameo down on its track (a free action) grants the wearer a +5 deflection bonus to AC for 1 minute. This ability can be used once per day for the typical giiraegisir, but a few have a superior version of the effect that allows three uses per day of this function.

Golden Orb of Siluvanede

During the heady days of Siluvanede, sun elves from the greater noble houses crafted arcane orbs that offered protection against an enemy's initial magical assault. These items, called golden orbs of Siluvanede, could be carried by their owners or suspended from delicate chains and worn like pendants; Some were even enspelled to float around their owners in a manner similar to that of ioun stones.
Each orb is a 1-inch-diameter sphere of purest gold imprinted with the house symbol of a noble Siluvanedenn family. These orbs were so expensive to make that each noble house possessed only one, which was traditionally carried by its eldest member.
A golden orb of Siluvanede contains a Siluvanedenn abjuration spell very similar to Elminster's effulgent epuration. The protection offered is continuous, although the orb can absorb and negate only one spell or spell-like ability that targets its owner each day. The wearer can choose whether or not to let the orb absorb a particular effect, although he gains no special knowledge or insight that allows him to identify an incoming spell before making this decision.
When Eaerlann and Sharrven conquered Siluvanede most of the golden orbs were confiscated and placed within secure vaults. Many of the newly released Siluvanedenn fey'ri now seek to reclaim their stolen ancestral treasures.

Halruaan Skyship

Of all the wonders of Halruaa, the most famous is the skyship: a sailing vessel that floats on air instead of water. The wizards of Halruaa guarded their secrets to creating these devices for centuries, leaving others to experiment (and fail) with various other methods. Recently a renegade Halruaan wizard revealed the process to another spellcaster, and a couple of wealthy governments have commissioned their own skyships.
The magic of a skyship comes in multiple parts. First is the control rod, a bar of silver with a cylinder of gold slid over each end. The rod is linked to the ten levitation plates (theoretically a larger ship would require more) affixed to the underside of the ship, which are traditionally made from the shells of Halruaan sea turtles. The plates allow the ship to rise into the air and prevent it. from entering water as a normal ship would, and the broad beam allows it to land on large flat surfaces without listing. The magic that suspends the vessel grows weaker with altitude, greatly decreasing its cargo capacity, so a skyship normally stays within 100 feet of the ground (at which point its cargo capacity is 15 tons, much less than a conventional sailing ship). The ship's horizontal movement is at the mercy of the wind, although its sails and supplemental magic from the plates allow it to turn with clumsy maneuverability. The vertical movement of the ship is controlled by the rod and allows it to rise or fall at a speed of 45 feet. A skyship is in all other respects like a standard sailing ship with respect to crew and dimensions.

Handharp

These small harps are very popular among the Harpers, and not just because of the name. A handharp is a crescent-shaped wooden instrument, about the size of a human hand, with metal strings. Anyone who can play a tune on a stringed instrument can use the harp. Various tunes and chords produce the following sonic effects.

Hand of the Oakfather

This piece of oak bark is carved in the shape of a human hand and magically hardened (hardness 10). Worn as a necklace on a cord of twine, it has the following abilities, each usable once per day: barkskin, entangle, goodberry, plant growth, speak with plants, and tree shape. The hand (but not the wearer) is protected by resist elements.

Harness of Armor

Created by wizards from the sweltering desert land of Calimshan, these simple crossed baldrics of leather and chainmail provide all the benefits of wearing armor with none of the problems that a metal shell can cause in the scorching sun. A harness of armor functions like bracers of armor but occupies the same space on the body as a vest, thus freeing the wearer to use other types of magic bracers.

Harper Pin

Two kinds of Harper pins exist, the lesser pin and the greater pin. These pins act as brooches for the purposes' of limitations on wearing multiple items of the same type.
The lesser Harper pin is normally fashioned of silver and given to new members of the Harpers. It functions identically to a ring of mind shielding.
Greater Harper pins are fashioned from silver magically treated to give it the hardness of steel. The following constant effects protect the wearer:

When worn by an evil being, a greater Harper pin turns black and, makes discordant jangling sounds (a -10 penalty on Move Silently checks).

Headband of Idiocy

A headband of idiocy appears to be a headband of another sort, and detection spells reveal nothing more than the fact that it has a magical aura. Upon donning this item, the wearer takes an immediate -10 penalty (to a minimum of 3) to her Intelligence and Wisdom scores, forgetting all spells and magical knowledge derived from either ability score: The headband can be removed only through a remove curse spell.

Heart of the Beast

Normally created by clerics of Malar, this item has begun to appear in the hands of others. This item is the heart of a predatory animal, smoked and magically cured.

Helm of Darkness

This shadow magic item looks like a normal helmet. Even when new, it seems worn or a little battered. It takes its true form and manifests its powers when, the user dons it. Made of blackened silver and steel, a newly created helm of darkness is set with thirty-six black opals along its lower edge and a great black sapphire in the front. The helm is self-identifying, though it does not reveal that it is a shadow item. It has the following powers.

As long as the helm contains at least one intact gem, the wearer is immune to fear effects and can see through any form of darkness as though it were daylight. The wearer can use the following spell-like effects on command: speak with dead once per day, chill metal three times per day, and pass without trace at will. (The helm provides the command words.)
Once all its jewels have lost their magic, the helm loses its powers and the gems turn to worthless powder. Removing a jewel destroys it.

Helm of Gazes

This mirror-bright steel cap is set with five catseye gems. The helmet automatically absorbs up to five gaze attacks the wearer is subjected to, rendering the wearer immune to the gaze. Once the helmet reaches its capacity, however, the wearer is susceptible to all gaze attacks even if he averts his gaze or closes his eyes. (The wearer is still allowed a saving throw against the gaze, if one is allowed.)
As a standard action, the wearer can release one stored gaze effect harmlessly (not as an attack) with a command word. A stored gaze effect fades after a tenday.

Ice Necklace of the Ulutiun

Several of these necklaces of magically hardened and preserved ice were created by a half-mad sorcerer who wandered among the Ulutiun tribes of the Great Glacier. Two of the acorn-sized ice crystals are opaque, four are transparent. The wearer can detach a crystal and hurl it up to 80 feet. When the crystal reaches the end of its trajectory, it explodes in a spell effect, either ice storm (transparent crystal) or sleet storm (opaque crystal).

Idol of Apostasy

Idols of apostasy are tools used by evil priesthoods (especially the church of Tiamat) to shatter the faith and values of members of good churches. For good people, looking upon the seductive debauchery depicted in the idol jeopardizes all their beliefs.
This object appears to be a dual-faced alabaster idol, approximately 2 feet in height. One side depicts a scene of a seductive succubus luring a paladin to commit lascivious acts. The other side portrays a scene of graphic and excessive violence committed by a kindly goodwife or mother. The acts personalize themselves to the individual, changing form to depict loved ones and respected figures.
Looking at an idol is the only thing required to activate it. Even if initially resisted, the idol continues to try to subvert the viewer's will. The first time a character of good alignment views an idol, she must attempt a DC 19 Will save. If the save fails, the subject's normal moral inhibitions are suppressed and her conscience is silenced, such that the subject is suddenly willing to commit acts she would normally never consider. (The viewer's alignment is instantly transformed to its polar opposite.) A paladin might murder innocents mercilessly; a priestess of love might slaughter a young couple at their wedding. The suppression of the subject's morals is permanent until broken by a break enchantment spell. It is entirely likely that a religious character will require atonement before she regains the favor of her deity - if forgiveness is even possible, depending on what acts were committed.
If a viewer of an idol succeeds on the save, she is protected from that idol's effect for 24 hours, but must attempt another save if she views the item again after that time has passed.

Instruments of the Bards

A wise and powerful bard in the Moonshaes named Falataer created the first of these instruments, using them to test and reward the students of his bardic college (which was divided into seven levels of skill). Others have since copied the designs, keeping the names Falataer gave them to honor him. Each instrument has its own set of unique powers that can be activated by anyone with sufficient ranks in the Perform skill without making a check. Some of the instruments bestow one negative level on a character lacking the proper number of ranks in the Perform skill. The negative level remains as long as the harp is carried and disappears when it is no longer carried. This negative level never results in actual level loss, but it cannot be overcome in any way (including restoration spells) while the instrument is carried.

Instrument of the Winds

This fine instrument is a masterwork lute (+2 circumstance bonus on Perform (string instruments) checks). Once per day, the user can attempt to play a certain tune on the instrument. If she succeeds on a DC 13 Perform (string instruments) check, the instrument of the winds summons a Large air elemental, as though with the summon monster VI spell.

Janthra's Harp

By playing this masterwork harp (+2 circumstance bonus on Perform (harp) checks) for a full round, the harpist can envelop all creatures within 10 feet of the harp in an invisibility sphere that also allows them to pass without trace. Unlike the spell, creatures made invisible by the harp can see each other. The harpist must continue playing to maintain the effect, but the music seems distant and does not aid foes in detecting the location of the harpist. If one of the invisible creatures attacks, the magic is ended for all participants. If one creature leaves the area of the invisibility sphere, the harpist must end the song and play again for a full round to hide that creature again. The harp may be used in this manner for up to 1 hour per day. Use of this item requires at least 1 rank in Perform (harp).

Joyous Star Song

Devout worshipers of Lliira and Milil created the first of these items. The object appears as a scroll made of beaten silver, stamped with the holy symbols of Milil (a harp made of leaves) and Lliira (three six-pointed stars). The scroll also bears the musical notation and lyrics for an inspiring song. When a bard sings the song, it allows him to use his bardic music one additional time per day, with a +5 sacred bonus on his Perform check for that use.

Kiira

These smooth hemispherical precious stones are known by their elven name, which means "lore gem." While more powerful versions of these items known as greater kiira exist, those date to the empire of Cormanthor, can only be used by elves of particular families, and risk causing madness and feeblemindedness in those not of the proper bloodline and without the necessary intelligence. The kiira that can be found in the world are weaker but safer versions of these devices.
The kiira is worn on the forehead (it affixes itself if placed there and can be removed easily by its wearer) and counts as a hat for the purpose of determining what items can be worn together. It allows its wearer to better focus her mind and memory, allowing her to better remember information. In game terms, this results in a +2 competence bonus on all Knowledge skill checks, though the wearer must spend a full round of contemplation to gain this bonus.
Furthermore, a kiira acts as a spellbook, allowing a wizard (or any other spellcaster who requires a spellbook) to record spells into and prepare spells from a kiira as if it were a spellbook (holding up to thirty spells of any levels), requiring the normal amount of time and expense. While a newly created kiira is empty of spells, a kiira recovered as part of a treasure hoard is likely to have spells recorded within it at the DM's option. If so, the value of the item should increase as if it were a spellbook.

Kiira N'Vaelahr

These bright green gems, each about the size of a man's fist, were created for the most skilled spies serving the city of Myth Drannor before it fell. When placed against the skin, a kiira N'Vaelahr embeds itself painlessly into the flesh where it touches, fixing itself so firmly that it cannot be removed. Traditionally, such a gem was placed over the heart, but it may be bonded anywhere the owner desires. Once implanted, the gem may be moved along the user's body through mental concentration. A bonded kiira N'Vaelahr grants the following powers.

Mantle Stone of Vhyridaan

This small gem resembles an ioun stone in most respects. It floats in a loose orbit 1d3 feet from its user's head and can be separated from its owner only by snatching or netting it. The mantle stone of Vhyridaan has AC 26, 10 hit points, and a hardness of 3. Three times per day, the user may speak a command word to gain protection from spells. This effect functions like the spell turning spell, except that a mantle stone always absorbs five spell levels before being discharged rather than the usual 1d4+6.
Additionally, the owner of the mantle stone may imbue it with up to three spell levels each day, as if it were a vibrant purple ioun stone.

Mask of Blood

This mask of red metal constantly weeps a bloodlike liquid when worn. Any NPC who sees a creature wearing the mask has his attitude toward the wearer shifted one category toward hostile. The liquid is normally harmless, but once per day the wearer can spit it forth as a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet. When used in this way, the fluid acts as a poison spell upon the creature it strikes. If a barbarian wears the mask, the character's rages last 1 round longer than normal. The mask counts as a pair of lenses for limitations on wearing multiple magic items.

Methild's Harp

When played by a character with at least 1 rank in Perform (harp) for 1 full round, this masterwork harp (+2 circumstance bonus on Perform (harp) checks) sends forth magical vibrations that cause locks, lids, doors, valves, and portals to open. The device functions against normal bars, shackles, chains, bolts, and so on. Methild's harp also automatically dispels a hold portal spell or even an arcane lock spell cast by a wizard of less than 15th level. It also unties knots and bindings and frees targets from entanglement of any kind (including web spells).
Each round of playing opens only one form, of locking or tying or frees a single target from its bonds or entanglement. The harp doesn't function in an area of silence, nor can it affect a target in such an area. Methild's harp has a range of 100 feet and may be played a maximum of 3 rounds per day.

Mierest's Starlit Sphere

This item is said to have been created by the sorcerer Mierest and given to one of his visitors in reward for a great service. The shining silver metal sphere is 4 inches in diameter and feels comfortably warm to the touch. When held, it is lit with cold blue-white pinpoints of light, illuminating an area as a torch would. This ability can be turned off or on as a free action. The orb negates several spells by contact: dancing lights, darkness, faerie fire; gust of wind, light, and wind wall. Objects within the area of its light are viewed as if with a true seeing spell. If passed through an open flame, it chimes a soothing song for 4 minutes that can be heard up to 100 feet away and quiets shriekers. Intelligent undead prefer to avoid the area it illuminates but are not prevented from entering.

This tattoo is usually of an animal or beast considered important to the monks of a given monastery or school. Examples include tiger, dragon, snake, crane, monkey, and so on. The tattoo improves the unarmed strike damage, speed, and AC of the monk recipient by four levels. Thus, a 7th-level monk does damage, moves, and avoids being struck as would an 11th-level monk. No other abilities are improved by this tattoo, including base attack. The abilities of this tattoo do not stack with the abilities of another monk's tattoo, nor does the tattoo grant any abilities to a nonmonk character. The tattoo does not take up an equipment space.

Najjar's cloak of weaponry functions like a bag of holding, except that it stores only 23 pounds of nonliving material of a volume that would reasonably fit beneath a 6-foot-long cloak. Most two-handed weapons do not fit, unless they can be coiled or folded in some way, but the cloak can easily hold light or one-handed weapons or other items of comparable size. Since the cloak was designed to hold weapons, it does not suffer the ill effects from puncturing that a bag of holding does.

Orb of Holiness

These glossy crystal spheres are about the size of an apple. Each is inscribed with one good-aligned deity's symbol. An orb is always neutral with respect to chaos and law.
An evil creature who touches an orb must make a Will save (DC 25). If the save fails, the creature takes 4d6 points of damage and is struck with a feeblemind effect. If the save succeeds, the creature still takes 2d6 points of damage and is dazed for 1d4 rounds.
A good-aligned creature can hold the orb and speak a command word to cast hold monster (DC 17) or purify food and drink each once per day. In addition, any good-aligned creature who is a follower of the deity whose symbol appears on the orb (any creature who has chosen the orb's deity as their patron deity, in other words) can hold it and speak a command word to cast cure serious wounds (3/day) or regenerate (1/day).
An orb of holiness continually emits a prayer effect. All good creatures are considered to be the orb's allies; all non-good creatures are its foes.
An orb automatically counters and dispels all fear effects within 60 feet of the orb (no action required). Finally, a creature holding an orb can use it to make touch attacks against undead. A successful touch deals 5d6 points of damage to an undead creature.

An orb of tempests is a scrying device made from a crystal sphere about 6 inches in diameter. It functions like a crystal ball, allowing the use of the spell scrying (Will DC 16 negates).

The art of making an orb of tempests was a closely held secret of the Illuskan wizards, so only a handful of the devices exist today. An orb of tempests is an especially potent defensive tool for the defenders of a port city, since the owner can detect hostile fleets long before they approach and sink them in a fierce gale that seems to spring from nowhere.

Phylactery of the Priesthood

Two versions of this phylactery exist (lesser and greater); each is a small ivory box that contains holy scripture. Each phylactery allows the wearer to maximize (as the Maximize Spell feat) any three divine spells he or she casts in a day, without using a higher-level spell slot. The wearer chooses to maximize a spell at the time of casting. The lesser phylactery can only affect spells of up to 3rd level, while the greater phylactery can affect spells of up to 6th level. The phylactery of the priesthood is tied to the wearer's forehead (and counts as a headband) or arm (and counts as a bracer).

Rhingalade's Harp

This masterwork harp (+2 circumstance bonus on Perform (harp) checks) is carved with images of a multitude of harpists playing in a chorus.

Ruehar's Flute

This finely crafted silver flute resembles a rolled-up spell scroll, with its holes lining the edge of the "parchment." It has seldom been seen outside the possession of the descendants of Ruehar, a green elf wizard who lived during the days of Myth Drannor.
When two short notes in any key are played on the flute, it emanates light, as the spell, and automatically dispels any of the following effects within the light effect's radius: acidfog, cloudkill, fog cloud, obscuring mist, solid fog, and stinking cloud.
The flute's second ability is activated by a command word known only to Ruehar's descendants. When this word is spoken, the flute unrolls like a scroll; revealing a small spellbook capable of holding twenty spell levels. The original Ruehar's flute contains the following spells: 1st - color spray, magic missile, Tenser's floating disk, ventriloquism; 2nd - daze monster, glitterdust, lively step; 3rd - Leomund's tiny hut, phantom steed; 4th - polymorph. Ruehar's descendants may, however, have manufactured more flutes since his death, and those spellbooks may contain different spells or simply remain blank. Any wizard who has deciphered the spellbook within Ruehar's flute may study and prepare these spells normally.

Sanguine Nostrum

A powder sprinkled on the heart and mixed with the blood of an enemy. Sanguine nostrum appears as a simple magical powder. The powder must be mixed with a recently killed enemy's blood and sprinkled on its heart. Preparing and consuming the heart in this way takes 3 rounds.
The powder is used to season the fresh heart of an enemy that has been dead for no more than 1 minute. If treated with sanguine nostrum and eaten immediately, the enemy's heart grants you great insight, as through the effect of a moment of prescience spell. The more powerful the enemy, the greater the benefits; the caster level of the spell is equal to the Hit Dice of the creature whose heart you consumed with the powder. One vial of sanguine nostrum has one use.

Scalebane Bottle

Scalebane bottles are extremely helpful tools when fighting dragons with high natural armor bonuses. When the bottle is opened, it sends forth a dull gray ray of magic, weakening the strength of a creature's scales. Although the bottles are effective against all creatures that have natural armor, they were designed to combat dragons.
Each scalebane bottle is made from Cormyrean glass, wrapped in snakeskin, and capped with a small cork. An individual who holds one can feel faint vibrations within. In order to remove the stopper from the bottle, its wielder must say the command word "Derynax." The wielder then points the bottle toward the target creature and removes its cork.
Once per day, the wielder can uncork the bottle and direct a ray of magic at a creature up to 60 feet away as a ranged touch attack. If the target is struck, it takes a -10 penalty to natural armor for 10 minutes. This penalty cannot reduce the creature's natural armor bonus below 0, nor does it have any effect on enhancement bonuses to natural armor (such as that granted by a barkskin spell). The target is not entitled to a saving throw, but the ray is subject to spell resistance; the wielder rolls 1d20+15 and must beat the creature's spell resistance.

Scarab of Scintillating Auras

This multi-hued jewel creates a field of clashing visible auras in a 90-foot radius. The multitude of auras blocks attempts to detect magic or alignment within the area. Not even a true seeing spell can detect an alignment aura within the scarab's area unless cast at 16th level or higher.
Once a day, the wearer can become invisible on command as if using the invisibility spell (self only).

Sending Stones

These items usually resemble lumps of unworked stone. They come in pairs. Once a day, each stone in a pair can send a message (as the sending spell) to the bearer of the other stone. If the stone's mate is not in a creature's possession, no message is sent and the user knows the communication has failed. If either stone in the pair is destroyed, the mate becomes useless.

Shaundakul's Boots

Originally a secret kept by the loyal followers of the deity of travel, the lore detailing the creation of these magical boots has recently become more widely available. These boots increase the wearer's base speed by 10 feet. Once per day the wearer may double his base speed (not counting the boots' effect) for 5 minutes. Once per tenday, she can cast find the path.

This agate-studded bronze circlet holds considerable power over undead. The wearer of the shroudcrown can turn undead as a 10th-level cleric, and she gains a +2 resistance bonus on all saving throws against spells and spell-like abilities of undead creatures. Furthermore, the wearer is constantly affected as if by a hide from undead spell. Though the shroudcrown is not actually cursed in any way, its owners have an unfortunate tendency to meet messy ends at the claws of the very undead creatures against which it protects.

Silent Portal Disk

This small disk affixes itself to (or can be removed from) any surface with but a simple command word. If that surface is a portal (door, window, box lid, curtain of beads, or any other such opening), it silences any sound of opening the portal, just as if the 0-level spell silent portal had been cast upon it.

Spice Jar

This relatively mundane item is highly prized among travelers. It can produce any spice, even rare ones, as long as that spice is used immediately (within 1 round) to prepare food or drink. Any spice thus created disappears if it is not used in that time. The spice jar replenishes itself continually, so its wielder need not fear ever running out of spices.
The spices produced purify any food or drink exactly as if affected by a purify food or drink spell. In addition, any food or drink prepared with the spices produced by the spice jar bestows some minor healing and disease prevention upon up to twelve people who eat the food or drink thus prepared. Eating or drinking meals prepared with these spices cures 1 hit point per use and grants a +4 resistance bonus on saves against disease for next 4 hours.
The spice jar may produce sufficient spices to make up to three meals or drinks per day that bestow these curative and resistance properties. The spices can affect any one person once per day.

Stone of Aerial Alarm

Stones of aerial alarm are useful tools to warn towns (and individual homes and buildings of the presence of draconic foes. Usually placed at intervals around the perimeter of a town, these stones give towns a short span of time to prepare for a dragon attack. Many towns have patrols circling the perimeter, watching out for alarms.
These objects appear to be stone cylinders painted with small pictures of the various dragons native to Faerûn. The cylinders constantly project a cylindrical warning area 500 feet high, with a radius of 100 feet. When a dragon passes over or touches the cylinder, it projects a loud noise for 1 round. In addition, it flashes a cylindrical image of the kind of dragon detected for 3 rounds, visible up to a mile in all directions.

Symrustar's choker may store a total of thirty-six spells, but no more than four of each level. The choker is treated like a wizard's spellbook for the purpose of deciphering spells contained therein, "scribing" new spells, and so forth. To determine randomly how many spells are stored in a given choker, roll 1d4-1 for each spell level, then roll randomly as if generating a scroll to find the exact spells.

These magical balls of tangled vines are used by the wild dwarves, particularly in their battles against the Batiri goblins of the Chultan forests.

This elaborate, high-necked bustier is laced and lined with black silk and adorned with sapphires and beljurils. It functions as both a helm of underwater action and a ring of freedom of movement. It also extends the wearer's life span, doubling the number of years in each remaining age category of the character's life, as well as her maximum age. For example, a human adult who dons Tasmia's heart would reach middle age at 70, old age at 106, venerable age at 140, and maximum age 2d20x2 years after that. Tasmia's heart counts as a shirt for the purpose of magic item limitations.

Telkiira

Telkiiras are powerful lore-gems worn by the leaders of the mightiest elf clans. Each telkiira holds the knowledge, skills, and sometimes even a fragment of personality from each of the elves who previously wore it. Only a few of these devices survived the destruction of Myth Drannor and the other fallen elven realms, and most of those that remain are jealously guarded by their houses. At least a few have made their way into the hands of other creatures over the millennia.
When placed on the forehead of an elf, a telkiira confers the following benefits.

Only an elf or a creature with elf blood (a half-elf, for example) can wear a telkiira safely. Any other creature that places the gem on its forehead gains two negative levels and cannot use any of its abilities. These negative levels remain as long as the telkiira is worn and disappear as soon as it is removed.
Telkiiras are often locked to prevent unauthorized elves from enjoying their full benefits. An elf wearing a locked telkiira gains none of the benefits described above except the bonuses to Intelligence and on Will saves. Any member of the house, clan, or family that owns a given telkiira can lock or unlock it as a free action: Any other wearer can attempt a Use Magic Device check or Charisma check (DC 20 for either) to open a locked telkiira. Failure means the wearer must wait until he attains his next level before trying again.

Travel Cloak

This lightweight gray-green cloak protects the wearer against some of the hazards and discomforts of outdoor travel. The wearer resists cold as if affected by an endure elements (cold) spell. Furthermore, the cloak sheds precipitation, keeping dry the area of the body covered by the cloak (head to knees). In addition, three times per day, the wearer can reach into one of the pockets of the cloak and pull out trail rations sufficient to feed himself. From another pocket, the wearer may withdraw a stoppered 1-quart metal flask that produces either pure cool water or sugared hot tea. The flask produces up to two gallons of liquid per day. The flask only refills if placed back in the pocket of the cloak; if separated from the cloak or wearer, it has no magical properties. Finally, when the wearer utters a command word, the travel cloak expands once per day to the size of a one person tent.

It is embroidered with a white upraised human palm in a circle on the right collar, a purple dragon on the left collar, and another on the center point of the hood (so that it is displayed to the rear when the hood is pulled back). The cloak constantly provides the wearer with the following benefits: endure elements (cold), darkvision, and feather fall (self only). Once per day, the wearer may use dimension door, lesser ironguard, protection from arrows, and sending.
These cloaks are normally only worn by Cormyrian war wizards, nobles, or specially chosen agents, although with the troubles in Cormyr of late, it is likely that some have been looted from corpses and can be found in other hands.

Weirdstone

These innocuous-looking, fist-sized pieces of faceted glass are among the most highly sought-after items in all of Faerûn. Mages who like their privacy and evil beings who prefer to keep their plans secret are particularly fond of these items, and they often dispatch minions or adventurers to retrieve them.
When placed upon a flat surface and activated by mental command, a weirdstone floats about 3 feet into the air, glowing and chiming softly. While active, it blocks out all of the following within a 6-mile radius (including into the air above and the ground below).

The weirdstone hampers only effects that manifest within its area. Spells or abilities activated within the weirdstone's area that target an area outside its 6-mile radius are unaffected. For example, a wizard standing right next to a weirdstone could cast a scrying spell to spy on a creature more than 6 miles away, but she could not teleport across the room because the weirdstone blocks teleportation magic within its radius.

The clasp prevents its attached item from melding into the wearer's new form when transforming magic (such as polymorph self or a druid's wild shape ability) is used, allowing the item to be used in the new form. For example, a druid with a wilding clasp attached to her periapt of wisdom could take the shape of a wolf (which normally doesn't use equipment) and have the periapt remain in its normal form, fully functional.

Word of Chaos's Power

This normally appears as a stone tablet graven with magical runes. Any creature that spends 1 minute or more studying the runes understands the runes' purpose. If the character studies them for an hour thereafter, the runes fade and the character has the ability to invoke the word of power as a supernatural ability. Each time the word is invoked, it functions as a rod of wonder, and the user suffers 1 point of permanent Wisdom drain. When the user reaches 0 Wisdom, he is totally insane and withdraws into a deep nightmare-filled sleep from which he cannot awaken.
A creature that knows the word cannot convey its meaning to another without investing the gp and XP to essentially create another copy of the written word. The creature could also use a wish spell (or similar magic) to create knowledge of the rune directly in the mind of another willing creature.

Wondrous Items of the East

The Thayans manufacture many standard wondrous items in their secret workshops, but some of the more unusual items found in the East appear below.

Breachstone

A smooth stone token carved with runes on both sides, the breachstone need only be touched to a wall or barrier to create a passwall as cast by a 10th-level sorcerer. The breachstone's tunnel is 5 feet wide, 8 feet tall, and up to 10 feet long. The tunnel remains in existence as long as the breachstone remains in the passage, and it closes 1 round after the breachstone is removed. As with passwall, the breachstone can only create an opening in stone, wood, or plaster walls, not through metal or magical walls. (A wall of stone is not magical after it has been created.) The breachstone operates five times and then crumbles into dust.

Circlet of the Wilderness

When placed on the head of a ranger, this band of braided strands of wood grants the wearer a number of spell-like abilities. Each function requires a different command word. At will - calm animals (DC 11), pass without trace, speak with animals; 3/day - summon nature's ally I, cure light wounds (DC 11); 1/day - summon nature's ally II, cure serious wounds (DC 16). These abilities are as the spells cast by a 7th-level druid. The wearer of the circlet of the wilderness can also predict all naturally occurring weather within fifty miles of his current location for the next 24 hours, at will. He cannot predict the use of weather-altering magic by someone else. The Simbul sometimes awards these wondrous items to Aglarondan rangers who have proven their loyalty to her and their country through some great act of heroism.

Hathran Masks

The hathrans of Rashemen are known for traveling and fighting wearing elaborate masks. Often these masks are magical, and some of the more common types of hathran masks are listed here. A mask counts as a pair of lenses for limitations on wearing multiple magic items.

Jhuild (firewine)

The dark reddish brew (not to be confused with the Old Empires drink called firewine) is made by the witches from grapes and fruits specially grown on plantations near the city of Urling, with various herbs added for increased potency. While it is not truly an enchanted item, its effects are certainly close.
Jhuild is generally considered to be the national drink of Rashemen. The land's berserkers are said to consume considerable quantities of firewine before going into battle, and it is said to both increase ferocity and bolster morale.
Each pint of jhuild consumed has the following effect: It increases morale level of NPCs by 1 (maximum increase of 5), decreases Wisdom by 1 (maximum decrease 5, to a minimum of 1), and adds +1 to all damage rolls - all for 2d4 hours after consumption. These effects may be avoided with a successful Con roll, but the roll must be made for each pint separately and is at a cumulative penalty of -1 for each pint consumed.
Once the 2d4 hour period has elapsed, the drinker immediately falls into a deep sleep for 3d4 hours and awakens with a throbbing head, thick tongue, and a miserable desire to crawl under a rock. This is all considered part of the price the Rashemaar pay for being the fiercest warriors in Faerûn, and no one complains (at least not much).
Firewine sells for 1 gp per pint within Rashemen and at least 15 gp per pint in other lands, with the price increasing the farther one goes from the land of the berserkers. A single bottle of jhuild, containing about two quarts, is said to have brought 100 gp at an auction in Waterdeep, for example.

Shaporyl's Mask

This very rare Hathran mask is decorated with tiny fancy stones and painted with elaborate patterns. Its wearer can use charm person three times per day, confusion once per day, and dominate person once per day. The mask can also scintillate in a multicolored pattern for 1 round three times per day, which works like a gaze attack with a range of 30 feet. Creatures that succumb to the gaze attack (Will negates DC 14) are dazed for 1d4+1 rounds. The gaze attack is a mind-affecting pattern.

Silver Skis

These items are highly prized by the Rashemaar. They allow free movement downhill in snowy or icy conditions and allow their wearer to automatically avoid all obstacles. Such items are especially useful when escaping from pursuers but are considered unsporting by the Rashemaar if used in ski racing.

Witchboat

One of these rowboat-sized wooden boats can hold three people. They move through the water effortlessly at a speed of 30 feet upstream or downstream and are guided by verbal commands from a person who knows the activation command word. A witchboat can even be ordered to return to a previous location without a pilot or passengers, and the sight of such empty boats is common in Rashemen. Crafted by the Witches and Old Ones, these boats do not work outside the boundaries of Rashemen.
A larger variety of the witchboat, called a warboat, is made by applying the same spells to a well-crafted felucca (a two-masted Rashemi sailing vessel), giving it a speed of 20 feet.

Magic Forges - Dwarven Items

From the mighty Moradin down to the local toolmaker, a dwarf smith's quality is tied to her forge. Without a forge, no smith can create even the simplest of tools. With the right forge, a skilled smith can create masterpieces of art and design, objects that will live through the centuries long after the smith herself has died. Given the dwarven drive for excellence, it is little wonder that the dwarves have perfected magic forges to help them in their crafts and allow them to create works that will live on beyond their deaths. All forges are built in a specific location and cannot normally he moved from that location. (A major expedition with teams of mules might be able to haul a forge to a new locale, but this would be an extraordinary event.) As immobile magic items, the sample magic forges presented here are priced at about 1/4 the cost of a comparable portable magic item. The Player's Handbook states that a character using the Craft skill can voluntarily increase the DC by 10 to craft an item more quickly. In fact, a character can increase the DC by any multiple of 10 (10, 20, 30, and so on), using the same rules. When using magic items that grant large competence bonuses to skill checks, such as many of these forges, increasing the DC by a large amount can dramatically speed the creation time for an expensive item (such as adamantine mountain plate armor).

Forge of Sustenance

A dwarf using this forge for any purpose need not eat, sleep, or even breathe while he continues to work at the forge, and he can work indefinitely without tiring. When using the forge to craft an item, the user multiplies his check result by the item's DC and then by 3 to determine his progress on a weekly (in sp) or daily (in cp) basis.

Wondrous items for the Dungeoneer

Blankets of Security

In case of nocturnal ambush, a set of blankets of security allows you to awaken five people with a single uttered phrase.
Blankets of security are five matching wool blankets, each embroidered with sigils in orange thread along the edges. When activated, the sigils glow brightly and vibrate, emitting a low subsonic hum.
You fall asleep under a blanket of security as you would under any normal blanket. Activating the blanket's magic requires a command word, which can be spoken as a free action. The same command word or phrase activates all blankets in a set, allowing whoever is on night watch to wake the rest of the party quickly. Typical command words might be "Rise and shine," "Danger lurks," or the simple but effective "Wake up!"
When a creature within 100 feet speaks the command word, a blanket of security automatically wakes any creature sleeping under it, even if the dozing creature is under a magical sleep effect.

Boots of Sidestepping

When worn, these boots increase your ability to dodge certain incoming attacks, such as the effect of an activated trap.
Boots of sidestepping are comfortable boots of soft leather that have good traction. They are fashioned from the tanned hide of displacer beasts and tooled with mystic symbols. When the boots activate, you move in a blur of speed as you dodge an incoming attack.
Boots of sidestepping activate automatically when you are exposed to an attack that allows a Reflex save. No action on your part is necessary.
While wearing boots of sidestepping, you can move 5 feet as an immediate action whenever you are allowed to make a Reflex save against a spell, spell-like ability, or supernatural effect. You move before making the Reflex save. If, after moving, you stand outside the attack's area, you avoid it completely and no longer need to attempt the save. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

Clasp of Safeguarding

This tiny, decorative clasp protects your valuable magic items by drawing a harmful effect to itself instead.
A clasp of safeguarding looks like a delicate gold pin that can be affixed to clothing or armor. The pin is sculpted to resemble a tortoise, with two minuscule green gemstones for eyes. When the clasp is activated, the tortoise's head and feet animate and draw inside its shell. The clasp glows brilliant green and briefly surrounds you with a translucent ward of energy. After the light fades, the clasp does not return to its former appearance and is no longer magical.
To be effective, a clasp of safeguarding must be clipped on one of your exposed magic items. The clasp is automatically activated whenever you roll a natural 1 on a saving throw against a spell, trap, or other effect that could affect any of your items. Tor example, the clasp would activate in the case of a fireball spell or a dragon's lightning breath, but not in the case of a charm person spell, which cannot affect objects.
None of your exposed items (magical or otherwise) is harmed by the effect for which you rolled a natural 1 on your save. A clasp of safeguarding works only once. After it protects your equipment from harm, it loses its magic and becomes a mundane piece of jewelry.

Dancing Lantern

This bullseye lantern levitates on command, allowing you to direct it verbally while keeping your hands free.
A dancing lantern resembles a standard bullseye lantern, except that it is crafted of mithral and its in-terior mirrors are made of polished silver rather than glass. When activated, the lantern floats in the air, darting back and forth as commanded by its owner. As it flies, it leaves a trail of golden sparks that quickly fade.
A dancing lantern is operated by two command words. The first ("illuminion") causes the lantern to light, and repeating the word extinguishes the glow. The second command word ("aviallow") causes the lamp to float, and repeating the word causes it to land gently. While it floats, a dancing lamp can be directed verbally as a free action as long as it is within 1,000 feet of its owner.
A dancing lantern provides magical light as a standard bullseye lantern, though it consumes no oil. However, it is more prized for its ability to remain aloft. When in the air, the lantern hovers within your reach, allowing you to benefit from its illumination while keeping your hands free.
If desired, you can verbally direct a dancing lantern to move away from you. On any of your turns, it can fly up to 90 feet per round with perfect maneuverability and can rotate to shine its cone of light in any direction. A dancing lantern will not stray farther than 1,000 feet from you. If you move farther away, it will attempt to move to within 1,000 feet on its next turn.
A lantern can be attacked while it is flying. It is Tiny and has AC 12, 30 hit points, and hardness 10.
Variant: Some dancing lanterns have been crafted as intelligent items. An intelligent dancing lantern can fly on its own and decide where to shine its light. It can also travel more than 1,000 feet from its owner. Like any intelligent magic item, it does not automatically obey directions, though its owner can deactivate its ability to fly with a command word, if desired. A typical intelligent dancing lantern has Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 14, and Ego 7; has vision and hearing to 120 feet; can speak Common and two other languages; and can communicate telepathically with its owner if within 1,000 feet. It has 10 ranks in Search and can use faerie fire (PH 229) three times per day as a spell-like abil¬ity. It can be of any alignment, though most intelligent dancing lanterns are chaotic.
Intelligent dancing lanterns are insatiable explorers, curious to see what lurks around the next turn of the dungeon corridor. If forced to stop moving, they occasionally make Search checks on their surroundings to stave off boredom. Many adventurers have been saved from death traps because their dancing lantern was randomly searching the area.

Grasping Hook

This animated grappling hook seeks out the best place to secure a rope.
When dormant, a grasping hook appears to be a mithral grappling hook delicately sculpted to resemble the claw of a dragon, with three main claws jutting out and a fourth opposable claw curled in at the palm. When the command word is spoken, the hook springs to life. All four claws begin moving, and it can move by using the claws as tiny legs.
A single command word activates a grasping hook. Speaking the word once causes the hook to animate and immediately seek the nearest secure object that it can grasp. Speaking the word a second time causes the hook to release its grasp immediately and resume its dormant position.
When a grasping hook is tied to silk rope, you can throw it as a standard mithral grappling hook. However, you can also speak the command word (a free action) as you throw the hook to cause it to animate. The hook then tries to grab onto the nearest secure object, granting a +6 competence bonus on your Use Rope check to seat it properly. A grasping hook has a Strength of 25 and can hold 1,600 pounds when grasping a secure object or terrain feature. You can cause a hook to release its grasp by speaking the command word again.

Wondrous Items of the Serpentfolk

The Scaled Ones have created a profusion of wondrous items, but only a few are known outside their realms.

Circlet of Seven Serpents

Fashioned by a bard from a single piece of serpentine stone, a circlet of seven serpents is carved to resemble a septet of intertwined snakes, each devouring the tail of another. The serpents' eyes are tiny emeralds, and silver filigree sets off each snake's individual scales. Thought to be originally of Jhaamdathan origin, such circlets have been employed by the nagas of the Eastern Heartlands since the founding of Sembia.
A circlet of seven serpents reveals its powers to anyone who places it upon her brow. It is considered a headband, hat, or helmet for the purpose of limitations on magic items worn. The wearer of the circlet can use charm monster and true strike once per day each, and mage hand and open/close at will (range 25 feet for both).
Moderate enchantment; CL 7th; Craft Wondrous Item, charm monster, mage hand, open/close, true strike; Price 14,400 gp.

Eye of Sseth

This yuan-ti device resembles a thick, heavy gold coin about 2 inches in diameter. One side of it is usually graven with numerals and a device such as a crown, a monarch's head, or the. arms or badge of a country. The other side, however, is a jet-black, glossy serpent's eye. When handled by any Scaled One, an eye of Sseth has no effect - but any other creature that touches it is immediately dosed with poison (contact, Fortitude DC 20, initial and secondary damage 1d6 Con). The poison is gone after one creature handles the coin.
If the last yuan-ti who touched that particular eye of Sseth is still alive, he instantly becomes aware when the eye is first handled by a creature other than a Scaled One, even if it is on another plane. Furthermore, he knows the approximate distance and direction to the spot where the handling occurred and receives a mental vision of the specific creature that touched the eye of Sseth (but not its companions or surroundings). If an eye of Sseth is seized by human adventurers, passed from hand to hand, and then spent in town, the yuan-ti who placed it receives impressions of only the first adventurer who touched it. Eyes of Sseth are commonly placed with scatterings of real coins as 'warning lures' inside the entrances of yuan-ti temples, to warn the inhabitants of intrusion.

Fang Bead

The surface of this small, lusterless black sphere is graven with a pair of fangs. The user can throw it up to 60 feet with no range penalties. If both Fangs are touched simultaneously (a free action) just before the bead is hurled, it bursts upon sharp impact, transforming into eight Tiny vipers that wriggle to attack the nearest living creatures other than the thrower. The snakes fight until slain or until no living creatures other than the thrower remain within 120 feet of the bead's impact point. Producing the vipers destroys the bead, though it can be thrown or struck any number of times without effect if the fangs aren't triggered.

Concerning Dragons

Amulet of Fearsome Might

This amulet enhances your ability to inspire terror in your enemies, making you even more frightening than you normally are.
This bronze necklace is formed in the shape of a roaring draconic head embedded with sparkling ruby eyes. Whenever the wearer's frightful presence becomes active (or when the wearer casts a fear spell), the eyes of the amulet flash with a burning red light. An amulet of fearsome might functions automatically as long as it is worn. When worn, an amulet of fearsome might doubles the radius of the wearer's innate frightful presence (to a 60-foot radius per age category, in the case of dragons) and increases its save DC by 2. if the wearer does not have a frightful presence, the amulet does not bestow that ability.
In addition, if the wearer casts any spells or spell-like abilities with the fear descriptor, the amulet increases their save DC by 2. This bonus does not stack with that from the Spell Focus or Greater Spell Focus feats. This ability functions whether or not the wearer has an innate frightful presence.

Cloak of Mysterious Emergence

The enemies of the Shadow's Fang cabal (see page 144, Dragon Magic) sometimes see a ghostly dragon maw appear in their peripheral vision. A heartbeat later, they see a black-cloaked figure step out of the open mouth. That's usually the last thing they see.
A cloak of mysterious emergence is fashioned from multiple layers of fine silk. Along the hem is a row of glittering red scales, molted away by Vaeratrux, the secret dragon master of the Shadow's Fangs. When the cloak is activated, a ghostly apparition of a dragon's head appears next to the wearer, and its jaws open. When the wearer steps into the jaws, he teleports to the desired location and emerges from a second insubstantial dragon maw a fraction of a second later.
Members of the Shadow's Fangs created dozens of cloaks of mysterious emergence for their top agents. Many have spread beyond the reach of the cabal, however, taken from agents who failed to complete their assigned missions. It takes a standard action to call forth the power of a cloak of mysterious emergence and step into its maw. Once the wearer arrives in his new location, he can't take any other actions until his next turn.
Stepping through the dragon maw created by a cloak of mysterious emergence functions like a dimension door spell with a range of 120 feet. A cloak of mysterious emergence has three charges per day. However, the wearer can choose to expend all three charges to have the cloak teleport him and up to 50 pounds of items up to 120 miles away.

A dracolich's phylactery is crafted from a solid, inanimate object of at least 2,000 gp value. Gemstones, particularly ruby, pearl, carbuncle, and jet, are commonly used for the phylactery, since they must be able to resist decay.
When a dracolich first dies, and any time its physical form is destroyed thereafter, its spirit instantly retreats to its phylactery regardless of the distance between that and its body. A dim light within the phylactery indicates the presence of the spirit. While so contained, the spirit cannot take any actions except to possess a suitable corpse; it cannot be contacted or attacked by magic. The spirit can remain in the phylactery indefinitely.

Dragonslayer Claws

Perhaps the most dangerous foe a dragon can face is another dragon. With that in mind, the great creatures designed these magic claws to help them fight off dragons that try to seize their hoards. More aggressive dragons use these claws to claim the hoards of those they view as weak.
These heavy, dark metal blades fit smoothly over the wearer's claws like comfortable gloves. Dragonslayer claws occupy the same space on the body as gloves. Although dragonslayer claws are made for dragons, any creature that has a claw attack can wear them, and they resize to fit the wearer. However, dragonslayer claws bestow a negative level when worn by any creature that is not of the dragon type or the dragonblood subtype. The negative level remains as long as the claws are worn and disappear when the creature removes the dragonslayer claws. This negative level never results in actual level loss, but it cannot be overcome by any means (not even restoration or wish) while the dragonslayer claws are worn. A wearer that does not have claw attacks gains no benefit from dragonslayer claws. Activating dragonslayer claws is a free action. The wearer can use the claws once per round, up to a maximum of three times per day. Before making an attack roll, the wearer must declare to which attack the extra damage will be applied. When the wearer makes a claw attack, dragonslayer claws deal an extra 1d6 points of damage. Against a creature of the dragon type or the dragonblood subtype, the claws instead deal an extra 3d6 points of damage and are treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Golem Manual

A golem manual contains information, incantations, and magical power that help a character craft a golem. The instructions therein grant a +5 competence bonus on skill checks made to craft the golem's body. Each manual also holds the prerequisite spells needed for a specific golem and effectively grants the builder use of the Craft Construct feat during the construction of the golem, and grants the character an increase to her caster level for the purpose of crafting a golem. Any golem built using a golem manual does not cost the creator any XP, since the requisite XP are "contained" in the book and "expended" by the book during the creation process.
The spells included in a golem manual require a spell trigger activation and can be activated only to assist in the construction of a golem. The cost of the book does not include the cost of constructing the golem's body. Once the golem is finished, the writing in the manual fades and the book is consumed in flames. When the book's ashes are sprinkled upon the golem, it becomes fully animated.

Horn of Dragons

This horn bears intricate carvings of dragons in flight. When blown (a full-round action), the horn summons an adult dragon 1 round later, to a location up to 100 feet away. The dragon remains for 1 hour and serves the user of the horn to the best of its ability. At the end of the duration, or if the dragon is slain or dispelled, the dragon disappears.

Idol of the Dragon

Much like a figurine of wondrous power, an idol of the dragon is a miniature statuette (about 2 inches long) resembling a particular variety of dragon. The color and kind of the dragon is very apparent, even at a glance, due to the craftsmanship involved. The idol grants energy resistance (5 or 10) of the appropriate type to its owner while carried (but not while the idol is in dragon form).
Once per week, when the idol is tossed into the air and the proper command word spoken, it becomes a full-size dragon of the appropriate age (see the table below). The dragon is a living creature, not a construct, and has all the abilities and powers of an average dragon of its age. The dragon obeys and serves its owner for up to 1 hour. At the end of this duration, or if it is prematurely dismissed by its owner, the dragon returns to idol form. A targeted dispel magic on the full-size dragon can return it to idol form if successful. If the dragon is slain while at full size, the idol is destroyed.

Tailbands of Impact

Characters who face the mightiest of dragons know to fear their tail slap more than their bite. These adamantine bands enhance the already prodigious destructive capability of a rail slap attack. Each of these three progressively larger adamantine bands is a stunning piece of jewelry in its own right, studded with gems and inscribed with draconic runes of strength. The three bands slip over the wearer's tail and are magically held in place once donned, spread equidistant up its length. Tailbands of impact occupy the same space on the body as boots.
While tailbands of impact are made for dragons, any creature that has a tail slap attack can wear them, and they resize to fit the wearer. A creature that does not have a tail slap attack gains no benefit from wearing the bands. The tailbands of impact function automatically as long as they are worn. An attack with a tail equipped with tailbands of impact is considered adamantine and magic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. In addition, tailbands of impact allow the wearer to apply more of his Strength bonus on damage rolls for tail slap attacks. Consult the table below to determine the effect.

Tome of the Wyrm

Favored by spellcasters who hunt dragons, a tome of the wyrm gradually increases the potency of its bearer's spells.
A tome of the wyrm describes dozens of battles between spellcasters and dragons (DC 10 Knowledge [arcana]). Wyrm wizards created the tomes to help them conduct research by overcoming the magical defenses of dragons, growing stronger over time (DC 20 Knowledge [arcana]).
A tome of the wyrm is a leather-covered grimoire with binding hinges and a back plate made of dark iron. An embossed, glowing eye with a slitted pupil adorns the cover. The eye remains heavily lidded unless a dragon attacks the tome's owner or the owner attempts a saving throw against a dragon's frightful presence. Then it opens wide until the battle is over.
Anyone can carry a tome of the wyrm, but its magic benefits only those who cast spells. A tome of the wyrm functions automatically, but only when carried in one hand. If it is left in a backpack or other container, it still records battles (as described below), but it doesn't improve its owner's caster level. A spellcaster carrying a tome of the wyrm in one band gains a +1 insight bonus to his caster level on any spell that targets an enemy dragon or includes an enemy dragon in its area. This benefit applies against all creatures affected by the spell, not just the dragon.
At the end of each of the caster's turns, determine whether he cast a spell that harmed an enemy dragon. (For the purpose of this item, this means any spell that dealt damage to the dragon, any spell against which the dragon failed a save, or any spell that overcame the dragon's spell resistance.) If so, the insight bonus of the tome of the wyrm increases by 1. If not, the insight bonus decreases by 1.
A tome of the wyrm's bonus can't drop below +1, nor can it rise above a number equal to the highest-level spell that its owner can cast. One hour after the last time the caster harms an enemy dragon with a spell, this effect fades, and the tome's bonus returns to normal. Each page of a tome of the wyrm describes one battle against a dragon - a brief narrative explaining who was present, how the fight unfolded, and how the dragon died (or how its attackers got away). After each new battle with a dragon, the tome magically adds a new page describing that battle. Once this 200-page book is full, any new entry overwrites the oldest entry.

Wondrous Items of the Dragonkin

Dragons are inherently magical, and those who carry their blood enjoy a natural proficiency with the arcane. Dragonkin characters are often drawn to spellcasting classes. Even those who do not pursue such paths can still make effective use of magic items.

Dragonblood Items

Crafters that have the dragonblood subtype often create magic items that are sensitive to the user's nature. Such items are "keyed" to the wielder's draconic heritage and must be held or touched in a specified way by the prospective user. Sometimes the item's manufacture reflects this: A sword's grip might have indentations for fingers or claws, an amulet could have a small spike to prick the wearer's skin, and so forth. Two types of dragonblood items exist - those with restricted use and those with hidden potential. Neither of these added sensitivities has an impact on the price of an item or its cost to create. It is up to the crafter to decide whether one of these traits is appropriate for the item in question.
Restricted Use Items: A crafter can make an item usable only by a creature with draconic ancestry. A user without the dragonblood subtype enjoys only the nonmagical qualities of the item: a masterwork suit of armor, a beautiful ring, and so forth. A wielder that has draconic blood can use the item in the normal way
Hidden Potential Items: A user that has the dragonblood subtype is able to activate a special ability worked into the item that is unavailable to others. For example, a +1 flaming longsword is instead a +1 flaming burst longsword in the hands of a dragonblooded wielder.

Amulet of Warmth

Amulets of warmth are personal devices designed to keep humanoids comfortable in any environment. These devices were originally crafted for kobolds whose search for new mining locations kept them away from their warm lairs. (Knowledge (geography) DC 10 or Knowledge (dungeoneering) DC 20). An amulet of warmth typically takes the form of a simple amulet or brooch, though it can be fashioned into some other form of personal jewelry. As a free action, tapping an amulet of warmth turns the item on. Tapping it again turns the item off.
An amulet of warmth produces an ambient cocoon of 70°F, protecting the wearer and his equipment from both cold and heat. If an amulet takes any amount of cold damage, however, it ceases to function for 24 hours.

Angriz's Chest

This container keeps meat fresh and wholesome. Angriz Ulbargix is a half-dragon wizard, a gourmet cook, and a voracious carnivore. His monstrous nature makes it difficult for him to shop for food frequently in the normal fashion, so he crafted this box to keep large quantities of meat indefinitely. In this way, he could order an entire haunch of game once in a while and consume it at his leisure. The item has since become popular with those who can afford it, especially the proprietors of large eating establishments and the managers of nobles' kitchens. It has come to be known as Angriz's chest, though its creator simply called it a "preserving box." (Knowledge (arcana) DC 20)
An Angriz's chest is a box, about 4 feet on a side, made of stout wood (usually oak) and lined with oilcloth to prevent leakage. Any dead flesh kept within the box remains fresh and palatable indefinitely. Once removed, the flesh begins to decay at the normal rate. Putting partly decayed meat into the box arrests further rot but does not reverse previous effects.

Folding Trap

Folding traps were invented by a master kobold trapmaker to aid in timely retreats. These devices are usually constructed by kobolds to provide quick installation of traps, as well as to easily carry along useful traps when they are retreating from their lair. (Knowledge (arcana) DC 15 or Knowledge (history) DC 25)
A folding trap is a small wooden ball the size of a large apple, every square inch of which has been etched with symmetrical Draconic runes. These carvings contain a hidden code that reveals the folding trap's command words. (Decipher Script DC 20) As a standard action, speaking the word "expand" in Draconic (turalisjth) causes the wooden ball to unfold into a trap that attaches itself to the available supporting framework (floor, ground, trees, walls). Speaking the word "shrink" in Draconic (kosjth), another standard action, while within 30 feet of the trap causes it to fold into a wooden ball once again. Several varieties of folding trap exist. The known variations on this item include the scything blade folding trap (CR 1), the wall blade folding trap (CR 1), the tripping chain folding trap (CR 2), the ceiling pendulum folding trap (CR 3), and the wall scythe folding trap (CR 4). Once activated, a folding trap is indistinguishable from a normal trap of its kind except for the trap's magical aura (see below).

Variants: Other varieties of folding trap might also exist, but they all must involve the use of mechanical traps that have an automatic reset (no arrow traps), don't represent a significant change to the physical environment (no pits or flooding chambers), and don't incorporate poison, magic, or living organisms (no toxic blades or brown mold).

Medallions of Io

These are plain, burnished metal disks that grant some of the strength of the Concordant Dragon to their users. Io's holy symbol is a featureless metal disk with a sheen of many colors, symbolizing the common heritage of all dragons as well as the spinning disk of the Blending. In honor of that creative act, the Singers of Concordance created the medallions of Io to aid the Ninefold Dragon's children throughout the world. (Knowledge (arcana) DC 20) Each medallion of Io is an unremarkable coin-sized disk made from an alloy of precious and base metals. The exact mixture of metals produces a colored sheen that corresponds to one of the ten standard dragon varieties. As a standard action, you press a disk into the center of your brow, where it remains magically attached and active for 1 hour. It does not count as an item worn on the head for the purpose of determining which of a character's magic items are effective. At the end of the hour, the medallion loses its magic and falls to the ground.
Each of the ten disks has a different benefit according to its sheen, as given below.

Memento Magica

Sorcerers, bards, and all spontaneous spellcasters of all sorts can benefit from a memento magica. A memento magica appears to be an amethyst cunningly cut into some draconic shape, often that of a dragon's scale. A memento magica is a great aid to spontaneous spellcasters such as sorcerers, bards, and favored souls, much as a pearl of power is to casters who prepare spells. Once per day on command, a memento magica enables its possessor to regain any one spell slot that she had previously used that day. The spell slot is available just as if a spell had not been cast. A memento magica can only recall a spell slot of the level it was created to hold. Different mementos magica exist for recalling one spell slot per day of each level from 1st through 9th.

Necklace Of Dragon's Teeth

A necklace of dragon's teeth summons a troop of loyal draconic warriors to your aid. Legends say that in the early days of the world, nearly all human life was wiped out in a great catastrophe. Sphenos, the Great Wyrm of the Earth, took pity on the few survivors and gave a bag filled with his own teeth to the farmer Imguren, telling him to sow them behind him in the earth as he walked. From the scattered teeth arose new people, the children of earth. (Knowledge (religion) DC 15) Imguren saved some of the teeth against future need. Generations later, when his descendants were being threatened by barbarians, they found the sack and planted the remaining teeth. These teeth then sprang up into fierce warriors who drove back the invading horde. These strings are made in remembrance of that miracle. (Knowledge (religion) DC 20) A necklace of dragon's teeth is a simple leather cord strung with pierced fangs, each about 2 inches long. Sometimes the ends are loosely tied so that it can be worn around the neck. (It does not count as an item worn around the neck for the purpose of determining which of a character's magic items are effective.) A strand initially has twelve fangs, though it can be discovered with fewer fangs than this (reduce the price proportionately). As a standard action, you remove a fang from the string and throw it onto the ground.
A thrown fang grows into a draconic myrmidon that acts on your turn on the following round. The myrmidon remains for 10 rounds or until it is slain, and either defends you loyally or attacks a target of your choice. The myrmidon understands your spoken commands regardless of the language you speak.

Softhands Gloves

Softhands gloves help disguise your draconic pedigree without drawing attention to you. These cloth gloves are made of a stretchy material that allows them to fit over the hands of human-shaped creatures from Small to large size. As long as you are wearing the gloves, your skin, hair, and eyes lose overtly draconic features such as scales, horns, slit pupils, and so forth. You resemble an ordinary member of your nondraconic race, negating any penalty on Disguise checks you would ordinarily take when disguising yourself as a different race. While wearing the gloves, you lose any natural claw attacks you might have. Your hands appear ordinary. The gloves themselves are no longer visible once worn but blend with the wearer's apparent skin.

Spellflinging Spear

A spellflinging spear is a potent weapon highly prized by kobold sorcerers. These spears are awarded to kobold sorcerers for consistently protecting their lair without ever needing to be protected themselves. (Knowledge (history) DC 10 or Knowledge (local) DC 20) The ore that goes into making spellflinging spears is an amalgam of red copper and steel. (Profession (miner) DC 15 or Craft (armorsmithing, blacksmithing, or weaponsmithing) DC 25) A spellflinging spear is a Small +1 returning spell storing spear, the piercing blade of which is tinted with ruby red metal and has a shaft of light steel. As a swift action, speaking the word "expand" in Draconic (turalisjth) elongates the weapon, speaking the word "shrink" in Draconic (kosjth) shortens the weapon, and speaking the word "normal" in Draconic (munth) returns a spellflinging spear to normal size.
Once elongated, a spellflinging spear has all the characteristics of a longspear. Once shortened, a spellflinging spear has all the characteristics of a shortspear. A spellflinging spear always weighs as much as a spear and has hardness 12 and 20 hit points, regardless of its shape.

The clever coffin provides a safe haven for intelligent undead. The coffin hideaway appears to be a finely crafted darkwood coffin. If unoccupied, the coffin rests on the Material Plane. When occupied, the coffin anything in it shifts to the Ethereal Plane. The occupant can use a command word to return it to the Material Plane for 5 rounds. Climbing into or getting out of the coffin (including opening or closing the lid) is a move-equivalent action.

Ectoplasmic Ichor

When this thick, translucent paste is spread onto a corporeal object (requiring a standard action), it allows incorporeal creatures to interact with that object as if they were corporeal (much like a ghost touch weapon).

Ghost Net

This gossamer-thin netting is thrown like a net, except it only affects incorporeal creatures. If the net hits an incorporeal target, the creature isn't entangled, but instead is treated as corporeal for the purpose of dealing damage to it with physical or magical attacks. It can be hit with normal weapons (though the creature's normal damage reduction, if any, still applies) and there is no 50% chance that it ignores damage from corporeal sources. A creature ensnared by a ghost net also can't turn ethereal (or, if snared on the Ethereal Plane, can't return to the Material Plane).
The creature retains all other special abilities, and can extract itself from the net with a DC 20 Escape Artist check (a full-round action). The ghost net can't be burst by Strength.

Ghoul Gauntlets

When worn by a living creature, these mottled gloves virtually meld with the wearer's own flesh, making his hands appear gaunt and rotting.
Once per round, the wearer can make a touch attack that paralyzes the target for 1d6+2 rounds (Fortitude DC 13 negates). Elves are immune to this paralysis. The wearer can also deliver this attack as part of an unarmed strike, slam, claw, or similar natural attack made with the hand, but in that case must attack normally (and not with a touch attack).
The ghoul gauntlets have no effect when worn by a construct or undead creature. If the wearer dies, the gauntlets revert to their normal appearance.

The bodies of humanoid creatures sacrificed according to special rituals of necromancy can be placed in globes of glass or crystal, so they remain perfectly preserved and on display indefinitely. Moreover, husk globes retain the imprinted knowledge once possessed by the corpse preserved within. Anyone who runs a hand across the surface of the globe and commands the occupant to speak by their correct name can ask questions of it. The questioner may ask up to ten questions once the corpse is activated. The corpse answers telepathically, mentally audible to all within 30 feet of the globe. The husk's knowledge is limited to what it knew during life, including the languages it spoke (if any). Answers may be brief, cryptic, or repetitive. The husk can be activated once per week. The husk can learn new information if told while active, and that information maybe retrieved later by different questioners.

Minions' Coffin

Powerful undead or non-good clerics that like to travel with a hidden entourage of lesser, corporeal undead favor stowing their underlings in this magic item. The minions' coffin appears to be a typical coffin for a Medium-size creature. Close examination shows that the coffin opens into an extradimensional space that allows it to store far more than would normally be possible. Up to 18 corporeal undead can be stored inside. Once the owner has filled it, she can command the coffin to produce any number of stored undead she wishes each round.
Only mindless undead, such as skeletons and zombies, generally get stored in a minions' coffin because once inside, the creature cannot release itself. An intelligent undead may choose to try to force itself out. The coffin has a hardness of 5 and 15 hp. Breaking out in this manner ruins the magic of the coffin and all its contents are spilled into the Ethereal Plane.

Detaching a figure causes it to become an actual undead creature, as indicated below. The skeleton or zombie is not under the control of the wearer of the robe, but it may be subsequently commanded, rebuked, and so on.

Wrapping a body takes 10 minutes. The magic of the shrouds is usable once only, after which the wrappings turn to dust.

Items of the Wild

As with their armor, wondrous items crafted by elves, raptorans, or halflings focus on utility and portability.

Belt of Hidden Pouches

This item might be made of silk or soft leather, but it's always fairly wide and with a big buckle (usually brass or silver). Hidden inside the belt are ten small pockets, each of which seems big enough to hold only a few coins. Each pocket actually functions as a small bag of holding and can hold up to 1/2 cubic foot or 5 pounds of nonliving material. No object with any dimension exceeding 6 inches can be placed in a pocket. Anything placed inside a pocket effectively has only one-tenth of its normal weight, so a full pocket weighs only half a pound at most.
In addition, two secret pockets lie behind each visible one, for a total of thirty pockets in all. The hidden pockets can be accessed only through a command word. A true seeing spell reveals the presence of the hidden pockets but not the command needed to open them.
Even when a pocket is full, it never bulges, so a belt of hidden pouches stuffed with 150 pounds of items looks like an ordinary belt.
Accessing any pocket (including the hidden ones) is a move action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. To place any object in the belt, the wearer merely presses the object into the belt. Doing so while speaking the command word places the object in one of the hidden pockets (if one of them is empty). Naming a stored object and speaking a second command word draws the named object our of the belt and places it in the wearer's hand (though he could also simply reach into one of the ten regular pockets and draw it forth, just as if retrieving a stored object (a move action that provokes attacks of opportunity).
Simply frisking the wearer won't reveal any objects placed in the belt, and searching the visible pockets cannot reveal anything stored in the hidden pockets. It is possible to use a Sleight of Hand check to pluck something out of one of the ten visible pockets, but only someone wearing or holding the belt can access the hidden pockets, and then only with the correct command word.

Safewing Emblem

This small feathered token can be worn or carried. If the owner falls at least 5 feet, the emblem becomes a set of feathery wings that allow her to use a feather fall effect to descend safely from any height up to 180 feet. The emblem requires no activation. When the owner lands, the token disappears, its magic expended.

Survival Pouch

This mundane-looking leather belt pouch can literally save its user's life in the wilderness. Five times per day, the user of a survival pouch can reach into the bag and retrieve his choice of one of the items listed below. The user can draw our the same item five times in one day, draw our five different items, or produce any other combination of up to five items. Drawing an item from the bag is a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
Each item lasts for 8 hours unless otherwise indicated.

Items of the Wastes

Ashworm Pellet

This item is a roughly spherical bead of volcanic scoria, about 1 inch across. When thrown upon the ground, the pellet grows into an ashworm. This action consumes the pellet and takes 1 full round to fully form. Disintegrating the pellet or dealing it at least 50 points of damage during that time prevents the ashworm from appearing.
The ashworm remains for 10 minutes. It is an average specimen in all regards. It serves the user until it is slain or the duration ends (it can obey only simple commands).

Bottle of Endless Sand

Burnoose of Moonless Nights

This black burnoose seems like an ordinary desert robe. Three times per day, in darkness or shadowy illumination, the wearer can draw up, the hood to gain total concealment. Unlike ordinary invisibility, the wearer can attack without revealing her location. The burnoose does not work in bright light, and such light reveals a wearer within its area. Each use of the burnoose lasts for 10 rounds.

Cape of the Wastes

This bizarre garment appears to be made of sand, although it is soft and light. Its wearer remains comfortably cool in hot weather up to extreme heat, making no Fortitude saves or Constitution checks to resist natural heat effects. The cape keeps its wearer comfortably warm, as the endure elements spell, similarly negating the need for saves or checks against natural cold effects. Finally, the wearer gains the benefit of the Sand Camouflage feat.

Folding Sand Vessel

This fine, wooden box is 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 6 inches deep. It can hold items like any other box. If a command word is spoken, the box unfolds itself to form a sand skiff over the course of 1 round. Items in the box are deposited, unharmed, on the ground. A second command word causes it to unfold into a sand schooner over the course of 5 rounds. A third word of command causes the vessel to fold itself into a box again, taking the same amount of time as unfolding.

Glass of Distance

This fine spyglass can be used to see up to ten miles away. While looking into the distance, a user can speak a command word to instantly transport to an adjacent square of an object or creature he can see. If the spyglass is reversed, a user looking through the large end can speak a command word to transport an adjacent creature or object to a distance of up to ten miles away. More than one object or creature can be transported, so long as each is in physical contact with another. A spyglass of distance can be used to teleport a creature only once per day, regardless of direction.

Lamp of Stars

This item appears to be an ordinary oil lamp, decorated with a pattern of tiny stars. Once per day, the bearer of the lamp can utter a command word, causing the flame to flicker out and be replaced by magical starlight. The lamp then sheds blue-white light in a 30-foot radius (and shadowy light for an additional 30 feet). Creatures with low-light vision can see three times as far in this light, instead of just twice as far. The starlight lasts until the lamp runs out of oil after 6 hours, at which point both the starlight and the lamplight are extinguished. Refilling the lamp with oil allows the magic to be used once again.

Opal of Tunneling

This black opal bead is about the size of a large pearl. When thrown against a surface, the bead explodes in a red flash and melts a hole into the material, forming a lava tube 10 feet wide and up to 30 feet long. The hot tunnel walls deal 1d6 points of fire damage per round of contact. Edges of the lava tube glow with this heat for 1 minute, after which time the new tunnel is safe for unprotected creatures to enter.
An opal of tunneling works only on rock and similar materials (such as crystal, salt, and so on). It does not damage a living creature, nor does it penetrate wood.
However, a creature within the 10-foot-diameter sphere of the bead's explosion takes 2d6 points of fire damage from the blast.

Personal Oasis

Once per day, when this 10-foot-by-10-foot blanket is unrolled, and the command word spoken, a 5-foot-by-10-foot tent springs from the blanket, along with a campfire, a bowl of dates, and a gallon of cool water. The tent functions in all ways, aside from its dimensions, as Leomund's tiny hut. The campfire burns continuously, never needing fuel, and the dates are enough to sustain one person for a day. Upon speaking the command word again, the oasis rolls back up into blanket form.

Thirsty Sand

This sand looks like gritty volcanic ash. When sprinkled on a body of water (or a solution in water), thirsty sand soaks up the liquid and stores it. Each grain can absorb up to 1 gallon of water, thereafter covering a 1-foot cube and weighing about 24 pounds. When a command word is spoken, the water is released again and the sand becomes nonmagical.
An area of water-laden thirsty sand is a mud bog. It costs 2 squares of movement to enter a square containing the mud, and the DC of Tumble checks in that area increases by 2. If the water is not released from the sand within 4 hours, it cannot be released and the material dries into normal, sandy soil over a period of days.
Releasing the water can be hazardous, depending on the volume absorbed. It rapidly fills a depression or pit and might be deep enough to present a drowning hazard, depending on the dimensions of the volume filled. Releasing 10,000 gallons or more at once produces a flash flood effect that lasts for 1 round per 10,000 gallons.
Thirsty sand is usually packaged in a vial containing 1,000 grains.

This item is a foot-long copper pipe that, when set into the ground and activated with a command word, transforms into a well that produces potable water. The lower end of the tube widens and lengthens, probing into the ground until it finds a reliable water source. The protruding end becomes a pump. The pump springs up in just 1 round, but it might be several minutes before water begins to flow, depending on the distance of the source. Speaking a second command word deactivates the well, returning the item to its pipe form.

Dance Masks of the Great Mother

The bhukas believe that the spirit children of their mother deity Kikanuti travel the world and visit her earthly children. At festival times, bhuka shamans don these ritual masks and are possessed by the intelligence that rests in them. Possession lasts until the shaman is overcome by exhaustion and loses consciousness. The mask is then removed and reverently stored away until the next festival. Generally, each bhuka village is the guardian of one mask, and they are all brought to a grand dance held by all the villages. Each mask takes the same body slot that a helmet or headband would. Some examples are given below.

Moon Owl

This feathered headdress resembles the head of the totemic animal after which it is named. Moon Owl represents the night sky, the cool resting time of the desert, as well as vigilance and wisdom. The mask's purpose is to defend the children of Kikanuti from their enemies. When the dancer puts it on, she allows the item's Ego to overwhelm her and use its powers to first detect then travel to and destroy the closest hostile creature. The possession continues until the wearer is slain in combat or returns victorious, at which time she collapses unconscious. If the wearer is slain, the moon owl mask teleports back to its village.

Standards

Standards (sometimes called banners) fly in the companies of an army. This type of wondrous item provides benefits to the unit that bears it. Unless otherwise noted, all allies of the standard-bearer within 30 feet of the standard receive the indicated benefit for as long as they can see the standard.
A standard requires two hands to use, so a two-armed holder is unable to use a weapon or shield while carrying the banner. In some cases the standard is mounted on a weapon, and that weapon can be used normally in combat.
A standard is an important part of a military force. Even those that are not magical provide a sense of pride and loyalty to those marching under them. They also can have important strategic value.
If a standard-bearer falls during combat, any magical benefits granted by the standard cease. If the standard is not raised again by an ally within 1 round, all those who were benefiting from it must make a morale check. If the morale rules are not being used, then followers of a fallen banner become shaken if it is not raised by an ally within 1 round (Will DC 20 negates).

Banner of Law

Order reigns supreme under this banner, and all nonchaotic allies within 30 feet are protected as if by a protection from chaos spell. Similar banners protect against law, evil, or good.

Philosopher's Wool

This thick, milky cream protects the wearer from the dangers of hot weather and from fire-based attacks. To apply, the user spreads the cream over her face, neck, and any exposed flesh. Philosopher's wool completely protects creatures from the ill effects of very hot weather (temperatures between 90° and 110° F) and provides a +5 circumstance bonus to Fortitude saves made when exposed to severe heat (temperatures above 110° F). In addition, these saving throws need only be made once per hour instead of every 10 minutes. Finally, philosopher's wool protects a creature from up to 60 points of damage from fire-based attacks. The effects of philosopher's wool wear off after 24 hours, or after the substance absorbs 60 points of damage from fire-based attacks. A 3-inch diameter, 1-inch deep jar of philosopher's wool has enough cream for five applications.

Portable Foxhole

When placed on a flat surface, this circular piece of canvas creates a shallow pit 5 feet square and 3 feet deep. The foxhole provides cover against ranged attacks. Items left in the foxhole when it is closed end up on top of the flat surface, since the portable foxhole is not an extradimensional storage item.

Items of the Planes

The vast array of wondrous items becomes even more diverse when these planar-related items are made available to characters and creatures in a campaign.

Boots of Gravity

These leather boots allow the wearer to choose the direction of gravity's pull on him and his equipment. The character can move normally on any solid surface by imagining "down" as being whatever is below the boots. A character can make this decision once per round, as a free action. If the wearer of the boots drops an item, it falls toward the ground as normal.
The wearer of the boots can carry another living being, and so long as the wearer does not let go of the second character, that character's gravity is the same as the wearer's. However, as soon as the wearer releases the character, normal gravity takes over.
Technically, a character wearing boots of gravity can fly by choosing a solid surface and letting himself fall through the air toward it. A character "flying" in this fashion moves at 60 feet per round. He can turn once per round thereafter by choosing a new "down" and falling in that direction. A falling character loses all "downward" momentum when he redefines his gravity.

Cloak of Shadow

This dark gray cloak appears to be made of diaphanous cloth that always seems to be fluttering slightly, as though in a breeze. When worn with the hood up, a cloak of shadow gives the wearer a +5 competence bonus on Hide checks in areas of shadowy illumination bus applies a -5 penalty in brightly lit areas. In addition, when the wearer is in complete darkness, he can become incorporeal once per day for up to 1 minute.
The cloak is actually a greater shadow, bound to the shape of a cloak by magic. Once per day, the wearer can command the shadow to come forth, and it does the wearer's bidding until slain, or until the wearer commands it to return to its cloak form. If the shadow is slain, it reverts to cloak form and can't be brought forth again for seven days (the cloak functions normally, but the shadow can't be activated during this time). If the cloak is destroyed, the shadow is destroyed forever. Should the wearer enter the Plane of Shadow, the greater shadow is free to act on its own-and may well attempt to slay its former master.

Deck of Illusions, Planar

This set of parchment cards is usually found in an ivory, leather, or wooden box, A full deck consists of thirty-four cards. A planar deck of illusions appears identical to a regular deck of illusions. As with a regular deck, when a card is drawn at random and thrown to the ground, a major image of a creature is formed. The figment lasts until dispelled. The illusory creature cannot move more than 30 feet away from where the card landed, but otherwise moves and acts as if is were real. At all times, it obeys the desires of the character who drew the card. When the illusion is dispelled she card becomes blank and cannot be used again. If the card is picked up, the illusion is automatically and instantly dispelled. A regular deck of illusions produces illusions of creatures suitable to the environment of the Material Plane. The images of the creatures conjured with a planar deck of illusions have a significantly otherworldly focus. The cards in deck and the illusions they bring forth are summarized in Deck of Illusions. A randomly generated deck is usually complete (roll of 11-100 on d100), but maybe discovered (01-10) with 1d20 of its cards missing. If cards are missing, reduce the price by a corresponding amount.

Gate Compass

This item looks like an ordinary compass. Instead of pointing to true north, a gate compass points to an area envisioned by the holder (or to the nearest portal leading to the area). It has the same chance of being on target or off target as if it were casting a teleport spell. Once the compass points to an area (either correctly or incorrectly), it will continue to point consistently to the area until it reaches the area or goes to another plane.

Ring Gates, Planar

Similar to ring gates, these items always come in pairs - two silver-etched iron rings, each about 5 feet in diameter. The rings must be on different planes of existence to function. Whatever is put through one ring comes our the other, and up to 10,000 pounds of material can be transferred each day. (Objects only partially pushed through and then retracted do not count.) This useful device allows for instantaneous transport of items or creatures. A character can reach through to grab items near the other ring or even stab a weapon through if so desired. Alternatively, a character could stick his head through to look around. A spellcaster can cast a spell through a planar ring gate. Creatures of Fine, Diminutive, Tiny, Small, or Medium size can pass through easily. A large creature can make a DC 15 Escape Artist check to slip through. Each ring has an "entry side" and an "exit side," both marked with appropriate symbols.

Rope of Crossing

This seemingly ordinary rope enables planar travel across the layers of an Outer Plane. While holding one end of the rope, the bearer can hurl the other end up into the air, where it remains magically suspended, or drop the other end down from a height, such as a cliff or a tree. By moving up the rope, climbers can ascend to higher layers on their current plane; by moving down the rope, climbers can descend to lower layers of the plane. The rope magically lengthens or shortens, depending on how many layers the plane has.
Crossing from one layer to the next is accomplished by climbing 10 feet on the rope. When the climber reaches his destination, he merely steps off the rope, and he is on the new layer of the plane. The rope remains in place until the last climber steps off, at which point the bearer can recoil the rope.
If the plane restricts exit or entry via plane shift or similar magic, this item fails to function.

Sextant of the Planes

A sextant of the planes analyzes the environment to give the user a planar bearing. In essence, it determines what planar traits the plane exhibits.
When not in use, the sextant appears robe a brass sphere about 4 inches across, nestled into a round brass box about 8 inches in diameter, with designs inscribed over every surface. When the brass sphere is pulled upward, the device "unfolds" to reveal the inner workings, including a series of crystal lenses and a myriad of control knobs and levers. This unfolding process takes 1 full round; restoring the sextant to its portable form takes the same amount of time.
Using a sextant of the planes takes 1 minute and reveals the following information.

Vestments of Steadfast Spellcasting

Versions of this item can vary greatly in appearance, depending on the race of the garment's creator and the plane upon which it was made. Its appearance ranges from snowy white celestial robes to leaf-adorned, dirt-colored clothing suitable to the Beastlands. Vestments of steadfast spellcasting enable the wearer to ignore the magic trait of a plane (except for dead magic planes) and cast spells normally. Depending on the plane visited, the owner of the garment might find it to be of unparalleled utility or might choose to take it off to experience the enhanced spellcasting opportunities certain places afford.

Yeth Horn

This strangely shaped device is a musical instrument concocted of twisted tubes and miniature bellows. When sounded properly (requiring a DC 15 Perform (wind instruments) check), it replicates a yeth hound's bay. All creatures except evil outsiders within a 60-foot spread must succeed on a DC 16 Will save or become panicked for 2d6 rounds. This is a sonic, mind-affecting feat effect. Whether or not the save is successful, an affected creature cannot be affected by the same yeth horn's sound for 24 hours.

Shadow Magic

Collar Of Umbral Metamorphosis

This collar temporarily transforms you into a creature of shadow. A collar of umbral metamorphosis is a thick collar of black leather studded with onyx spikes and closed with a tarnished silver clasp. When activated, it seems to disappear into your shadowy flesh. A command word, such as "fade" or "darken," both activates and deactivates the collar. This requires a standard action. A collar functions for up to 10 minutes per day, divided up as you see fit (but each use counts as 1 minute, minimum).

Dark Lantern

Designed by shadowcasters, a dark lantern sheds a mystical light in the form of shadowy illumination. This item is a hooded lantern, constructed of black iron with mithral filigree. Its crystalline panels are tinted bright gold. When lit, the lantern radiates shadowy illumination out to 60 feet. The light flickers more slowly than normal fire, and the crackle of the flames sounds more like plodding footsteps. You strike a light within, just as if it were a normal lantern. The lantern must have oil or other fuel. You also speak a command word, such as "shadows" or "darkness". The activating process requires a full-round action. You can deactivate the lantern by opening it and blowing out the flame within (altogether a standard action).
A dark lantern sheds a mystic light that creates shadowy illumination, modifying the brightness of ambient light as well as spells of equal or lower level with the light or darkness descriptor.

Orb of Shadow

Mystery users prize orbs of shadow as wizards do pearls of power. An orb of shadow appears to be a black pearl of average size and unusual luster. Once per day, you can speak a command word as a standard action to activate an orb. You must have the orb in your hand; drawing it out is a move action.
Like a pearl of power, this item allows a single extra use of a mystery, regardless of whether that mystery functions as a spell, spell-like ability, or supernatural ability. The mystery must be of a particular level, depending on the orb. Different orbs exist for recalling one mystery per day of each level from 1st through 9th and for the recall of two mysteries per day (each of a different level, 6th or lower).

Shroud of Night

A shroud of night grants you a number of shadow-oriented defenses. A shroud of night is a very lightweight cloth, made of a thin, gossamer material. It is always black or dark gray. When worn, it ripples slightly even in the absence of any wind or movement. The shroud wraps about the shoulders but occupies space on the body as a vest, not as a cloak. The deflection bonus is active constantly while the shroud is worn. Using dancing shadows or shadow skin requires a command word, such as "nightfall" or "obfuscate."
A shroud of night grants you a +2 deflection bonus to AC. It can also cast the mysteries dancing shadows and shadow skin each once per day, on you only.

Truename Wondrous Items

Every truenamer with the resources to do so purchases an amulet of the silver tongue. Since making a Truespeak checks is so vitally important to the truenamer, the item is an absolute must-have.

Amulet Of The Silver Tongue

An amulet of the silver tongue makes its wearer better able to pronounce words clearly and correctly - a key aspect of the art of the truenamer. An amulet of the silver tongue depicts a grinning face with an open mouth. Naturally, most are fashioned from silver. Many have a pin on the back and are used as a cloak-clasp. An amulet's functions are subtle, although wearers seem to enunciate their words more clearly, whether they're uttering truenames or conversing normally. This item functions for any creature, but only those with the Truespeak skill benefit from wearing it. An amulet of the silver tongue provides its bonus as long as it's worn.

Cephalometer (Illithid)

This psionically empowered caliper measures a creature's head size via two inwardly curved, iron projections. These projections are connected at one end with a bolt that allows them to open or close. In addition, the caliper wielder can use dominate person and feeblemind (DC 17) each once per day on any willing or subdued creature whose head is between the projections. Fitting the calipers to a subject's head provokes an attack of opportunity.
In addition to the two powers noted above, a cephalometer applied to the head of a willing or subdued subject can conduct a mind probe once per day for up to 10 minutes. All the subject's memories and knowledge are accessible, from memories deep below the surface to those that are easily called to mind. The wielder can telepathically pose one question, and the caliper extracts the answer from the subject's brain and relays it directly to the wielder's mind. These answers are to the best of the subject's knowledge. The wielder and the subject do not need to speak the same language, though less intelligent creatures may yield only appropriate visual images in answer to questions. The cephalometer may be used to probe a sleeping subject, though the subject may attempt a DC 17 Will save to wake after each question. Creatures protected by mind blank or those that are not affected by mind-affecting effects are immune to this mind probing.

Unattended driftdiscs customarily float 3 feet above a horizontal surface.
Each driftdisc is activated by a different command word. If he device is within voice range, the command word activates it, whether the speaker is on the disk or not. The disk can then be controlled telepathically by the creature that spoke the command word. Mentally commanding the disk is a free action, and the user can do so at a range of up to 120 feet. The user retains control of the disc until he uses another command word to deactivate it. At that point, another creature could speak the activating command word and take control of the driftdisc.
Once per day, the user can animate the driftdisc as though with an animate objects spell. The animated disc is a Large animated object with a fly speed of 90 feet and perfect maneuverability. As an animated object, it fights and moves as directed by its user.

Those belonging to powerful drow often have multiple abilities of various power levels. Typical spells for a house insignia are blur, cat's grace, cloak of dark power, comprehend languages, feather fall, jump, levitate, read magic, scatterspray, shield, spider climb, unseen servant, and water breathing.
Each insignia is slightly different, even those from the same noble house, so a person aware of the unique shape of a person's insignia can magically locate that person.

Drow House Insignia (Spell)

This small unusually shaped amulet bears a strange symbol.
Each drow house insignia (spell) is keyed to a specific noble house of a particular drow city, and is wrought to reflect the house that created it. Some might be stylized versions of crossbows, javelins, maces, or even just spiders.
A drow house insignia (spell) contains a single minor magical effect that can be used once per day, usually a 1st-, 2nd-, or 3rd-level spell, with the more powerful spells reserved for drow of significant station or influence.

These insignia typically contain one of the following spells: blur, cat's grace, comprehend languages, feather fall, jump, levitate, shield, spider climb, unseen servant, and water breathing. The aura of this item is of the same school as the spell it contains.
Since each insignia is slightly different - even those from the same noble house - a person aware of the unique shape of an individual insignia can magically locate that amulet with a scrying or similar spell.
Lore: A DC 15 Knowledge (local), or a DC 20 Knowledge (dungeoneering) or bardic knowledge check reveals the house to which an insignia is keyed. Drow gain a +4 circumstance bonus on these checks.

Drow House Insignia (Transmitting)

This small, unusually shaped adamantine amulet bears a strange symbol.
Each drow house insignia (transmitting) is keyed to a specific noble house of a particular drow city, and is wrought to reflect the house that created it.
Three times per day, by speaking the command word, you can utter a short message into the item, which transmits it up to 1 mile away to another character wearing an insignia of the same house. The recipient hears the message in its mind.
To transmit the message, you must name the intended target as part of the command word. Should the target not be wearing its drow house insignia, the message is lost, but you have no way of knowing whether it successfully transmits or not.
Since each insignia is slightly different, even those from the same noble house, a person aware of the unique shape of an individual insignia can magically locate that amulet with a scrying or similar spell.
Lore: A DC 15 Knowledge (local), or a DC 20 Knowledge (dungeoneering) or bardic knowledge check reveals the house to which this insignia is keyed. Drow gain a +4 circumstance bonus on these checks.

Elixir Of The Unfailing Servant

Inside this bone flask is a noxious black fluid that stinks of rot. The flask itself resembles a screaming face, with a fat stopper in its mouth.
An elixir of the unfailing servant ensures that minions keep fighting, even in death. If you consume this vile concoction, any time within the next 8 hours that your hit points are reduced to O or lower, you are instantly slain. On the following round, you rise as a zombie with the instructions to attack any non-drow you encounter.

Eyes of the Spider

This device fits on the head in such a way that it covers the wearer's left eye. Eight rubies are set into its silver surface, starting directly over the covered eye and rising in a line toward the top of the head. The jagged shape of the item is reminiscent of a spider's legs. A character wearing eyes of the spider cannot also wear a pair of eye lenses or goggles (though he or she can wear a single eye lens, such as a single eye of charming or eye of doom) or a headband, hat, or helmet.
When the eyes of the spider are first put on, the device extends a protrusion into the wearer's left eye socket. This causes excruciating pain and deals 2d6 points of damage. Once this occurs, the device cannot be removed until the wearer is dead.
Three times per day, the wearer of the eyes of the spider may use a standard action to make a gaze attack identical to the corrupting gaze ability of some ghosts. The range of the attack is 30 feet, and the target must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 19) or take 2d10 points of damage plus 1d4 points of Charisma drain.
The character gains the benefits of a continual true seeing spell (the divine version) to a range of 120 feet. Because the device also grants all-around vision, the wearer cannot be flanked and gains a +4 bonus on Spot and Search checks.
Finally, the eyes of the spider make the wearer immune to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects).

Fang Scarab

A fang-shaped crystal dangles from a loop of finely wrought silver chain in the center of this spiderweb medallion. When the chain is used to wrap the fang scarab around a monstrous spider's waist (the juncture of its cephalothorax and its abdomen), the creature can hear Lolth's dark whispers in its subconscious. This gives it an instinctive knowledge of what the next moment will bring, which manifests as a +1 insight bonus on attack rolls. (This ability does not function during Lolth's silence.)
Because the fang scarab is designed for spiders, it's not useful to most adventurers. A nonspider can make a fang scarab function with a successful Use Magic Device check (DC 25), but doing so also fuses it permanently to its user's neck, near the Adam's apple. Nothing short of the wearer's death can then remove it.
Though the fang scarab grants its wearer the same attack bonus that it would to a spider, it also initiates a metamorphosis that can change the wearer into a half-spider abomination over time. When the scarab first attaches itself, the wearer's canine teeth enlarge and coarse black hairs appear on the back of his or her neck. No further changes occur until the character attains levels in the fang of Lolth prestige class.

Figurines of Illusory Escort

In the Underdark, looking too tough to challenge is often the best way to win a fight. Each of these figurines appears to be a miniature humanoid about 1 inch high. To activate it, the user must speak the correct command word and specify a humanoid or monstrous humanoid race and a gender of each figurine, as well as whether it should appear to be a slave in leg chains or a guard with armor and weapons typical for the race. The figurine then produces a major image of the specified creature, which cannot move more than 30 feet away from the figurine. The figment lasts for 8 hours, after which the figurine cannot be used again for 1 day.
Slave figures can be commanded to march, do chores, or mine. Guard figures can be commanded to either march or stand guard. The illusion cloaking these figures randomizes and varies their movements, so that each figure appears to act as an individual.
These figures act in their programmed manner, regardless of circumstance, so they are usable only as a preventive measure. The ruse can work well enough in a calm situation, but if a combat does occur, the figures continue to do their chores or stand guard - inappropriate actions under the circumstances.
Moderate illusion; CL 6th; Craft Wondrous Item, major image; Price 6,500 gp per figurine.

Figurines of Wondrous Power

Each figurine of wondrous power appears to be a miniature statuette of a creature an inch or so high (with one exception). When the figurine is tossed down and the correct command word spoken, it becomes a living creature of normal size (except when noted otherwise below). The creature obeys and serves its owner. Unless stated otherwise, the creature understands Common but does not speak.
If a figurine of wondrous power is broken or destroyed in its statuette form, it is forever ruined. All magic is lost; its power departed. If slain in animal form, the figurine simply reverts to a statuette that can be used again at a later time.

Fire Elemental Gem

This red or orange gem contains a conjuration spell attuned to the Elemental Plane of Fire. When the gem is crushed, smashed, or broken (a standard action), a fire elemental (Small, Medium-size, Large, Huge, greater, or elder) appears as if summoned by a summon monster spell.

Hand of Kiaransalee's Glory

Very similar to the hand of glory, this item is a mummified drow hand with a silver ring on each finger. As with the hand of glory, a magic ring placed on one of the fingers (as a replacement for one of the silver rings) functions normally for the character who wears the hand.
In addition, each of the five silver rings allows the wearer of the hand to use a specific spell effect. Each ring can produce one of the following effects once per day: deeper darkness, see invisibility, ray of enfeeblement, chill touch, and spectral hand. If the wearer replaces one of the five silver rings with another magic ring, he or she must sacrifice one of these spell effects in order to replace it with the magic ring's power. If removed from the hand, the silver rings have no magical power.

Lenses of Clarity

The wearer of these lenses gains a +4 insight bonus on saving throws against all spells with the charm, compulsion, or glamer descriptors. The lenses also reduce any miss chance the target might have when attacking an opponent with concealment from a glamer spell (such as blur and displacement) by 10%. For example, a creature wearing lenses of clarity that attacks an opponent protected by a displacement spell suffers only a 40% miss chance instead of the customary 50%.

This garment is made of silky, smooth cloth woven through with strands of colored thread. The color of the thread corresponds to the type of energy the cloak resists: green for acid, white or blue for cold, yellow for electricity, red for fire, and black or iridescent for sonic. The cloak grants the wearer energy resistance 10 against the indicated type of energy.

This item is designed for use by illithids, though any tentacled creature may use one. A single tentacle extension appears as a flexible, 5-foot length of iron composed of many thin iron threads. A razor-sharp blade is attached to the end, and a small duct runs throughout the length of the extension to convey an illithid's natural flesh-dissolving enzymes to the tip.
A tentacle extension grants a tentacled wearer a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls made for that tentacle and increases its base damage die by one step. For illithids, this means that a tentacle attack with a tentacle extension deals base damage of 1d6 instead of 1d4 points. A tentacle extension increases its wearer's reach by 6 feet. A creature with multiple tentacles can wear multiple extensions, if desired.

Beholder Items

Dimensional Pocket

This item is, in essence, a bag of holding in the form of a pocket. When placed against a surface, whether fabric, skin, or bone, and a command word is spoken, the pocket adheres to the surface and can only be removed by speaking the command word once more. Once attached, the pocket is invisible to the eye, but the wearer is always aware of its location and can reach for it unerringly. A see invisibility or true seeing effect reveals the pocket's presence, and detect magic can reveal its magical aura. However, the auras of items within the pocket cannot be detected with detect magic unless the pocket is open.
Beholders use dimensional pockets to carry important objects and to conceal magic items and weapons from foes. It can hold up to 1,000 pounds and has a volume of 150 cubic feet. The mouth of the pocket can expand to fit items up to 1 foot across.
A dimensional pocket cannot be removed unless the command word is spoken or the wearer dies, but contact with the extradimensional space to which the pocket is connected can be suppressed with a targeted dispel magic or antimagic effect. A favorite tactic of beholders fighting beholder spellcasters is to use their antimagic cones to prevent their enemies from accessing their dimensional pockets.

Ocular Gems

These fist-sized gems gleam with the shimmering magical energy that boils within them. A beholder can fit one of these items into an eyestalk's place by pulling the stalk slightly back into its body to create a shallow socket in its hide. Wearing an ocular gem grants a beholder the use of a new supernatural ability from the list below that operates just like its other eye rays. In theory, a beholder could use as many as ten ocular gems by retracting all its eyestalks, but few beholders are willing to give up all their racial eye rays. Unless otherwise specified, the ability granted by the gem has a range of 150 feet. Other races cannot use ocular gems.

Wondrous Vile Items

Belt of the Dread Emperor

If a willing (or dominated or helpless) humanoid creature is attached to the wearer of this belt by a chain and a manacle (see armor of the Dread Emperor), the wearer can draw energy from that creature to power spells. The belt of the Dread Emperor functions for all spellcasters who prepare spells (including clerics, druids, rangers, paladins, and wizards). The belt enables the wearer to recall a prepared spell, even if the spell has already been cast, as long as the spell was among those he most recently prepared. For each spell recalled, the chained creature takes damage equal to the square of the spell's level: A recalled 1st-level spell deals 1 point of damage, a 2nd-level spell deals 4 points, a 3rd-level spell deals 9 points, and so on, up to a 9th-level spell that deals 81 points of damage. If the chained creature does not have enough hit points left to power a desired spell, the spell fails and the creature dies.

Heaven's Thorn

Despite its sharp point, this dark green, dagger-sized thorn makes a poor weapon because it is too brittle and fragile. However, when it breaks against the flesh of a good-aligned outsider (requiring a touch attack), it releases terrible energy that stuns the target for 1d4 rounds (no save, but spell resistance applies).

Spiralburst Bottle

This is a sort of magic weapon contained within a glass bottle until it is used. Opening or shattering the bottle (often by throwing it like a flask of acid or alchemist's fire) unleashes the spiralburst. The spiralburst is a portal to the Ethereal Plane that is only about 1/2 inch wide. This portal has an almost limitless amount of pull, sucking a single creature or object through the gate unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save (DC 30). If the bottle bursts against something, the object it shatters against is the target. If the bottle is opened, the opener is the target. The spiralburst only pulls up to 10 cubic feet through, so if the object or creature is larger than that, only a portion of it is pulled through.
The weapon gets its name because the target drawn through the portal is sucked through in a spiral pattern. For most living creatures, this is a blood-red spiral as their body is liquefied into a spiral-shaped stream, then drawn through the very small portal in a single round. Objects, unless they are extraordinarily malleable, are destroyed. Creatures die instantly unless they are amorphous (such as oozes). Even objects and creatures that survive are lost on the Ethereal Plane. The spiralburst disappears after a single use.

Vasharan Offal Bag

This big burlap sack is filled with dung that always remains fresh and odoriferous. If someone empties the bag, it loses all its power. Otherwise, a nonflying giant cockroach can be called out of the bag once per day to serve the bag holder. The giant cockroach remains for 1 hour or until killed. It obeys all verbal commands of the bag owner, although it will not roam farther than 100 feet from the bag. If it is forcibly moved farther, it responds to no commands, although it will still disappear after its hour is up. Unlike other vermin, a giant cockroach I brought forth from this bag understands Common and has an Intelligence score of 3.

Vasharan Worm Pod

This item is a 6-inch-long gray seed pod. To get the Vasharan worm pod to function, is must be forcibly inserted into a helpless character's stomach (a standard action), dealing 3d6 points of damage to the character. For 2d10 days thereafter, gray-white worms grow within the pod, feeding on the character's flesh, dealing 1d4 points of damage each day and creating specialized body parts within the stomach lining. Once the worms are fully grown, the character can mentally command the worms (a full-round action) to snake a long, fleshy tube out of his stomach and up into his nose. Thereafter, until the host of the worm pod retracts the tube (a standard action), he can command a worm to travel up the tube, into the nose, through the nasal passage, and into his mouth. As a standard action, up to three times per day, the character can spit a worm up to 30 feet away, hitting a target with a successful ranged touch attack. If a worm hits a living creature, it burrows into the creature's body and into its vital organs. The target must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 18) or die 1d4 rounds after the worm strikes. Even a target that succeeds at its saving throw take 2d6 points of damage each round for 1d4 rounds, after which the worm dies. A remove disease or heal spell kills the burrowing worm, stopping the damage and the risk of death.
A creature with no discernible anatomy is immune to the worms and cannot be the host of a Vasharasi worm pod.

The captain can turn the alarm on or off with a command word. The captain can, at any time, negate all the current lantern tokens, turning them back into nonmagical copper coins. Tokens radiate a very minor abjuration effect.

Everfull Sails

Sails crafted of a sky-blue canvas with strange silver flecking, these magical sails are always filled with a strong wind when fully unfurled.

The winds stop when the sails are furled or otherwise pulled down.
A ship requires one set of everfull sails per mast, or the magic does not function (although the sails work as normal sails).

Living Figureheads

Each of the several kinds of living figureheads is carved from fine wood and resembles an ordinary figurehead. When a command word is spoken, the figurehead animates and is able to use special powers as described below. The living figurehead obeys and serves the ship's master (usually the captain). Unless stated otherwise, it can speak Common and communicate telepathically with its master, provided it is within 100 feet.
If a living figurehead is broken or destroyed in its carving form, it is forever ruined. If destroyed while animated, it simply reverts to a wooden carving that can be used again at a later time.
An animated living figurehead is a construct of the same size as the object, but it has the Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores given in its entry. Special abilities whose save DCs depend on Constitution use the animated figurehead's Charisma score instead.

The animated figurehead is treated as a Large animated object, except that instead of a single slam attack, it has 8 slams that each deal 1d8+3 points of damage.

This thick, tarred rope comes in 50-foot lengths and weighs twice as much as normal rope. Its magical enhancement grants it hardness 2 and 5 hp, and it requires a DC 25 Strength check to burst. Designated creatures moving over lines and rigging fashioned from this rope gain a +5 enhancement bonus on Balance and Climb checks. In addition, should a crew member fall from the rigging, the lines snake out and grab him in midair, preventing a fall and gently setting the creature to the deck of the ship.
The master of a vessel designates crew members for the secure lines, adding or removing individuals as the ship's complement changes. Adding or removing a crew member requires a command word.
Moderate conjuration and transmutation; CL 9th; Craft Wondrous Item, Animate Rope, Fabricate; Price 10,800 gp; Weight 20 lb.

Sovereign Sealant

This thick, colorless spread makes ships and watertight containers less susceptible to damage and leaks. One drum of sovereign sealant is sufficient to treat a boat or container of Huge size, or two hull sections of a larger craft.
A treated wooden item gains +2 hardness and is completely waterproof. A ship treated with sovereign sealant can lose one more hull section than normal before sinking.
Moderate conjuration; CL 8th; Craft Wondrous Item, Minor Creation; Price 8,000 gp per drum; Weight 60 lb.

Water Wheels

This set of four wooden wheels fits most wheeled vehicles, allowing one so equipped to float in water, regardless of its size or composition (although a vehicle with large openings will quickly become water logged). A vehicle so equipped has no independent mode of propulsion once afloat but must be rowed or fitted with sails unless it has magical propulsion or dray creatures capable of swimming.
Faint transmutation; CL 5th; Craft Wondrous Item, Wave Blessing; Price 10,000 gp; Weight 20 lb each.

Wind Pipe

A device built for pumping air into submerged or otherwise enclosed spaces, this is a 2-foot-long brass tube, threaded so that additional lengths of ordinary tubing can be attached. The wind pipe has a diameter of 3 inches.
When activated, a flow of air equivalent to a moderate wind blows through the pipe. The intake end must be surrounded by air for the magic to work. Even if the space the air moves into has no outlet, the wind pipe provides circulation of the air magically.
Moderate evocation; CL 10th; Craft Wondrous Item, Favorable Wind; Price 7,000 gp; Weight 10 lb.
