Everyone's favorite item I ever introduced was a simple thing. "Expanding Moss" is what I called it. Once per dawn you tore off a small piece and stuck it to a surface. It then made a 5' x 5' cube of material that had the consistency of wood and could support 500 lbs. People would make bridges, block off passages, and all sorts of unusual things with this item... and loved every minute of it.

My personal favourite magic item I made was "Brandyblade sheathe". It was a sword sheathe that can shift to the size of any sword or dagger. But, when the weapon is sheathed, it begins talking. It has the soul of, and voice of a drunken ANGRY dwarf, who's vocabulary mostly consists of angry swears, called Brandybeard. It has actually helped and hindered my players more than I thought. It is hilarious.

@basbarbeque6718 3 года назад

I've created a lot of magic items but haven't had the chance to introduce them in my campaign yet. Of those I have added my favourite are Horatio's gems of language. Differently coloured gems the size of a golf ball. When a player attempts to swallow the gem they must make a DC 20 constitution check, on a success they take a bit of piercing damage (1d4) and learn a language associated with the gems colour. On a fail they take the same amount of piercing damage but also 5d10 damage of a specific type that bypasses resistance. (failing to swallow an infernal gem deals fire damage) When my (at the time) level 5 party obtained one they all took turns trying to swallow it. It was the dumbest way the party got close to TPKing

@mitchellbonds766 3 года назад

This sounds like a unique and more permanent (and dangerous) version of the Pearl of Speech from DnD 3.5. Those also granted you a language when you put it under your tongue, but you didn't permanently learn the language.

My favorite homebrewed magic item is a potion I call goodberry wine. It's basically wine made by magically fermenting goodberries. Drinking a shot of it puts people under the effect of the Aid spell (+5 health to maximum and current hp for eight hours) but it's also the equivalent of drinking a gallon of actual wine, so characters who drink it need to make a high dc constitution save or immediately become blackout drunk.

@anthonyrowlodge5357 3 года назад

@badideagenerator2315 8 месяцев назад

i had an idea for a simmilar item to this, called "dwarvish brew of healing" which is basically just a healing potion which can be sipped 5 times before running out, or chugged in one go to expend all uses at once, with the drawback of you becoming totally enebriated if you fail a con save. the dc would start off as 10, but each consecutive sip makes it higher. if all uses are expended at once, the dc is 20.

In my last campaign (3rd ed) I created some not particularly powerful items that were so useful the players kept them all the way from level 3 up to the end at level 17. 1) A pair of rings. One fits over a weapon, the other on your hand. If the weapon is more than 30' away or you click your fingers (free action) then the weapon appears in your hand, as long as doing so would not cause it to appear inside anything. He never drew his rapier again 2) A cloak of comfort. No matter the weather, the state of your bed or what you're wearing, you can sleep comfortably. In my current campaign (5th ed) the players just found a dump with some magical items in it that were flawed or faulty and therefore thrown out by the artificer that lived nearby. Not pointless, but good luck finding a use for them. The highlights were: 1) A ring that was enchanted with immunity to non-magical damage and vulnerability to fire. Luckily they tested it out with an out-of-combat stabbing and realised THE RING was enchanted with immunity to non-magical damage and vulnerability to fire. 2) An human eye in a jar. The eye has truesight and always looks at the nearest humanoid. 3) A huge pointy hat with WIZRAD badly embroidered down it. If worn by anyone that is not an arcane caster, they gain the Prestidigitation feat. Currently being worn like Jayne's hat by the heavily armoured Paladin

@soulweaver64 3 года назад

The magic item I'm most proud of is called the Scorched Hilt. It's an artifact that belonged to an ancient hero who was raised from the status of an artificer to the leader of a party of unlikely heroes, and used to be his custom built sword. In their last battle, he sacrificed himself to a monster to save the party, his sword getting melted down to the hilt by the blood of the beast. Now, it's kept in a reliquary, and everyone thinks it's just a cross guard and slag but they still revere it as a relic of the hero's victory. However, the enchantments on the blade reacted with the burning blood, and if someone was able to uncover the original activation word, a blade made of raw fire would be conjured from it. It became a +3 Flaming Burst longsword, did the same damage as a longsword plus an additional d6 as all fire damage, and half its damage bypassed fire resistance/immunity. The Flaming Burst effect even rolled as though the sword had a 3x crit modifier, instead of a 2x, so it was a burst damage monster. Sadly my party never received it as they were given a choice between "jungle village" and "megalopolis city of mages and forgemasters enchanted to rest safely in the caldera of a barely active volcano" and decided to deal with mosquitos the size of horses. One day...

The item is called "Snapjaw" It was the result of our rouge trying to disarm a bear trap that was easily avoidable once spotted, (like literally walk around it kind of thing) he failed. And then proceeded to use the chain on the beartrap to snap two of the 4 enemys necks in the room that were alerted by said beartrap. His hands were pinned together because of the trap, and after a few failed attempts at escaping the trap, he just said fuck it. This rouge was not a strong boi, and it was a miracle that his little halfling body was able to wrestle them to the ground. He was also stuck within 10ft of the doorway because of the chain attached to the beartrap. After this encounter, the barbarian got a new chain for the beartrap, fastened the other end of the chain to a stick, and it was unanimous agreed at the table that this weapon was to be called "Snapjaw" There were plans to put an immovable rod on the end of it, but the campaign ended before that could happen

My friends came up with the "Anvil of Encumbrance".

In one campaign, it was the only anvil, upon which, you could create legendary items with.

@Levinswords 3 года назад

mine would have to be my Demonic Bloodblades, a unique magical weapon for my Tiefling fighter and rogue. It takes the form of a glove made of thin chain, with a blood red crystal in the palm. If a creature without the blood of a demon touches said crystal, or wears it, they take 1 necrotic damage per round spent doing so. A creature with demonic blood can activate the blades by speaking the true name of the strongest demon in their bloodline, or their main demonic ancestor. This in of itself can be a small quest after gaining the glove. The crystal then explains a into either a greatsword, longsword, or shortsword (player’s choice) made of a blood red, almost translucent energy. The swords can deal necrotic damage instead of their normal type, return to your hand as a bonus action, and drain the essence of slain enemies. Statistically, the swords would normally gain a +3 to damage in exchange for a -3 to hit, but on your next turn after killing an enemy, you lose the hit penalty and gain an additional +3 to damage, dealing 6 extra damage per hit, although doing so causes the first attack you make on that round to damage you as well. It cannot chain, meaning after the turn of +6, you go back to +3 damage and -3 hit. The blades can also be thrown incredibly easily, which negates the hit penalty as well. They have become an extremely versatile and unique weapon for them to use, as it can be a powerful secret weapon that can be thrown to hit from a distance, can be snuck past guards in crystal form, and makes mowing down smaller enemies feel like a good play, even when you want to focus damage on the bosses.

@anthonyrowlodge5357 3 года назад

This is amazing. Even better to encourage a being with demonic backgrounds like tieflings to find out out that stuff and even become a warlock/fighter or warlock/rogue with that ancestor as the patron with some added perks to being related to that demon.

In a waterdeep dragon heist campaign, our DM of our parties human fighter got a hold of a flask of very potent alcohol intended for Goliaths. Being a chronic alcoholic, the fighter was very appreciative of it; but to the DM surprise.he did not chugg it all down right then and there. For one, if most non-Goliaths (except for that one fighter) that drink of the flask, they would have to make a constitution check to stay conscious (nat ones resulting in death, and yes it happened, more than once). Number 2, he had better plans for it. Since reserving the flask he searched hight and low for someone to enchant the flask so it will never run out of the "Goliath stuff". Nevertheless, the party found one in via nat 20 after a short period of time. Armed with the flask of infinite "Goliath stuff", this fighter used this flask to knock out(or accidental kill) some of our party's foes. Sometimes, he sneek up on grab a foe from behind, and force fed the flask(still relatively quietly). Other times we would slip enough of it into a drink of someone we needed to knock out. He even used the alchohol like those lines of gasoline that they ignite in the movies in order to light something on fire. Also, our party made our hideout into a bar, and our signature drink had a small drop of "Goliath stuff"

I was part of a campaign where our DM created special Legendary items for our party that evolved over the course of the campaign. The one I want to specifically mention is the item my Gnome Rogue got. The item was a simple +1 Rapier. It started out as Copper, with a single Copper coin within the hilt. As the weapon involved, it turned Silver and eventually Gold. When it turned Silver, the Copper coin began to spin. When it turned Gold, the Copper coin spun out of the hilt and into my character's hand. This coin was a very special item. With it, you could turn any pile of garbage into treasure. Here's the catch: that treasure had to be used for Charity purposes and not for greedy means, or else you'll magically lose *all* the wealth that you have and must repent at a local church. This made a lot of sense for my character, as I played him up to be a bit of a Robin Hood-like character, gambling money away from the rich (usually through Sleight of Hand) and giving it to the poor.

@malthungaming3466 3 года назад

So, this is part of an entire Homebrew world/campaign I'm working on that I also plan on using for a separate story from the Campaign. Which means a small amount of backstory! This world, currently called Unithis (Please tell me what you think!) has ancient artifacts called Soul-Crafts. These Soul-Crafts are crafted from the Souls of the departed, and almost all of them are in some way Powerful Artifacts. Though the power depends entirely on the creator and the Souls used. . The objects, since there's two in this story, are a pair of Legendary Greatswords named Vormere and Formere. They are a pair of Twinned Greatswords, made of an as of yet unknown metal that appears to be virtually indestructible. Both blades are incredibly light, incredibly strong, and, even after centuries, still razor sharp. They are crafted from the Souls of a pair of Twins, made with grief by the Father, who spent his last two weeks of life on them, having been found dead in his Workshop. The swords, according to legend, glimmered with purpose and intent, though no one could figure out what that Purpose was. . An inscription is visible on the flat of both blades that reads "In Life, you were never Far. In Death, that Distance Grants you Power". While the pair are together, IE Wielded by the one individual, they possess a number of Magical Qualities. . Formere gives off a Freezing Aura, that deals 2D6 Frost Damage to enemies. Vormere has a Burning Aura, that deals 2D6 Fire Damage to enemies. However, both have a similar, secondary trait; Critical Strikes that would kill an enemy cause the enemy to explode with either Frost Shards or a Fireball, dealing an additional 2D6 Frost/Fire Damage to enemies within ten feet of the target. All this is on top of their nearly indestructible nature, and normal Greatsword Damage. .

"This is a safe space" (they've done nothing to make it so), "we really care about you" (well you could've fooled me), "don't be afraid to talk to us" (right, because this is a safe space full of people who care about us, sure).

If hugged while the Bear has not Owner, the creature is compelled to keep it and protect it. Not Sauron's Ring keeping it, but simply unable to leave it behind. It can be given to others, but only if the Character thinks, new Owner will take good care of it. The player can't do anything that would harm the bear or endanger it, unless his or his parties life is on the line. If the Teddy get's damaged, all who have hugged the Teddy get a +2 hit bonus on the Target. If the Teddy gets destroyed, it's +5 to hit and damage but the affected are forced to attack the target.

I've came up with a scroll of food creation. Works like the create food spell but on a massive level, however it's made out of pelts or skins. The more powerful the being the material comes from the more rations it creates. For example, using cow, pig, goat, sheep or any other basic beast, the scroll produces 100 rations. For creatures like griffins, owlbears, displacer beasts, it holds 250 rations. Now for humanoids(doesn't matter which, like humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes, orcs, kobolds, goblins, hobgoblins) it produces 500 rations(great to use on death row prisoners) medium humanoids can make about 3 scrolls. Monstrous humanoids like orges, trolls(can have a few trolls for this very purpose since they can regenerate) produce 1,000 rations Now the skins from powerful magical beings, like demons, celestials, dragons, giants, behir, or a very powerful human, about 2,500 rations.

My favorite (due to the time it took to balance, and the number of campaigns and appearances it took my players to realize the full function of) would be the Wheel of the Zodiac. Dubbed the 12 form blade for quite a while, it was a +1 weapon that could change to other weapon types on short rest (free) or bonus action (1 charge). However, the weapon was incomplete when first discovered, as the Gemini form was of twin blades, and these blades were separated in a long ago event. After several appearances across multiple campaigns, my players finally discovered the lost blade, and with it the abilities each form offered. For example, the Gemini form could create a double of the wielder, Aquarius could create and control water etc. I will never forget the look on my fighter’s face when he attuned, read through the list of forms/powers, then looked at me. “The number of charges makes so much more sense now.”

Each liquid was a different damage type and a different effect and they all are named with an "F" or "Ph" sound at the start. _Vial skull of flame, frost, photons, phobia,_ etc. All non-weapon damage types were accounted for.

Crunch. The owner is a carpenter who was walking home from the tavern and saved an oblivious enchanter from getting merked with her framing hammer, so he enchanted it to be plus 2 vs evil aligned creatures, as well as having the player have to make a will roll at -4 when around evil creatures to avoid attacking them. It will also return to her after a long rest if she loses it. Since the character just wants to build houses and drink with her buddies, she started adventuring to try and find someone who can remove the enchantment

My favorite Homebrew Item is an Item that we give to any Character whose Player is absent from game a lot. It's called the Ring of the Phantom and it's a great way to keep the Character engaged in the story even if the Player can't make it every session. The Ring of the Phantom is actually a cursed item. Once put on, only a Wish spell can remove it. It allows the Character to step into the ethereal plane once a day for one minute per level, max 5. The Character can then essentially act like a ghost, passing through walls and objects or moving certain objects with a weight of up to half the Character's weight lifting capacity. At 5th level, the Character can "possess" a living person or creature for 1 round so long as the creature fails its Will save (DC = 1D12 + Character's Wisdom Mod.) However, the Curse is as such: On random occasion, the Character is suddenly pulled into the ethereal plane and is trapped for a time. (A.K.A. the Player has to skip a session, so during the time of the Player's absence, the Character is incorporeal.) The player is vaguely aware of what is happening, but cannot interact with anything as the pull of the Ethereal Plane is too strong. After a certain amount of time, the Character returns to the Prime Material Plane (A.K.A. whenever the Player can attend the next session,) and has a vague memory of what happened (A.K.A. the other players and DM fill in the Player on what happened.) There is a possibility that the Ring of the Phantom could claim the Character forever (A.K.A. the Player just gets too busy with life and can no longer play.) It's a really fun mechanic that I came up with to allow continued gameplay even with the absence of a Player.

I have some magic items that I'm actually introducing to my party tomorrow, for which I'm very excited! One is called the Ode to Emptiness: it's a blank scroll of paper, which 'blankness' is a magical Ode to Emptiness, an empty poem per say. The poem has the ability to switch itself with any piece of writing (on paper) within 5 ft., meaning the scroll will have all the text on it, and the surface that text was previously on will now have the Ode to Emptiness on it: aka nothing. Could be useful for espionage, but I'm also curious what my party might do with it when they get it. Another are the Gloves of Wood Molding, which let the wearer mold any kind of wood as if it were clay. How it works is that only where the gloves touch the wood it becomes claylike, and only for as long as the gloves touch it. Just imagining the possibilities in this seemingly strange/useless item makes me excited: like just grabbing chunks out of a wooden wall to look or shoot through it, or weakening wooden beams to make a building collapse. Really looking forward to my party getting creative.

The wrecktangle, its a greatsword that was pretty much a slab of steel with handles and chainsaw esque hooks along the blunted blade, a bonus action would change your stance and it would count as a shield, and if you attack the same target twice with it, you can roll a grapple check as you rip the only sharp part of the blades, the hooks, into your target to get them stuck on the blade.

I’m a forever DM. I have only created a few magic items, but my favorite has to be the enchanted scorponite battle claws. For context: a scorponite is a heavily armored half human half scorpion from the land of Cadrifel. They are an ancient race who once ruled the continent with an iron fist, and are now coming back to try and do so again. Their most common weapon is called a scorponite battle claw. It is an arm mounted golden colored disk with two long spikes poking out from forwards from the rim and a leather arm guard. They can be used to make melee strikes, but also have the +2 AC of a shield. However, the army does have mages as well. They wield enchanted versions of the battle claws. They are typically depicted as being more elaborately decorated with glowing orange blades. Aside from their standard benefits, they can also cast fireball without requiring a spell slot as well as acting as a focus for other fire based spells. Four of them put together can even summon a fire elemental for 5 minutes. Being shields, they can also display a holy symbol for clerics and/or paladins.

I've only DM:ed once, but I homebrewed a potion I creatively called "Magic Potion". It was simple, but fun. It was held by a shifty goblin merchant that had snuck into the battle arena where this one-shot took place. Hoping to make some coin out of the contestants. Our bard (who had rolled insanely well on money and was filthy rich), was fascinated by this "Magic Potion", which the merchant admitted to not exactly know what it does... So of course she proceeded to spend her whole fortune on it. The thing with this item is that if you drink it, you have to roll a d6, and the result decides what effect the potion will have. If I remember correctly the effects were: 1. Nothing happens (it tastes like citrus). 2. You gain superspeed (120 feet). 3. You vomit and take 1d4 damage. 4. You heal 1d12 HP. 5. You fall asleep. 6. Advantage on your next roll. In the end, she forgot to use it in game, and only realized afterwards that she had it, so she took a swig and used her newly gained superspeed to sprint to the tavern for the after party and then run home with her winnings.

My favourite Magic Item type object was a device called the Necrosis Capacitor. It was a little widget that could be clamped onto a longbow and, as willed by the wielder, could be activated to deal an additional 2D6 Necrotic damage. The item recharges either if you take a Long Rest or if you kill an enemy, the item pulling in energy from the soul as it leaves the target and storing it until the wielder needs it.

My favorite item, while extremely simplistic, was a ring: "When worn, it grants the user the ability to greatly succeed for as long as they may like; however, once the ring's enchantment is no longer in effect, by any means, the exact same amount of unluck is brought upon them. Additionally, any foe you meet will know of the ring and its power upon striking you, and they may proceed however they may like." Essentially, you get a ring that, once attuned, grants you advantage on any roll you make, and has a few other minor buffs that make you a massive powerhouse that basically can't be killed. However, if the ring comes off at any time, it must be re-attuned to, and for the entire time, you have disadvantage on any roll and all the other minor quality of life improvements are reversed, becoming debuffs, AND anybody who hits you will automatically know about it, and will hear the same thing as written above. Antimagic fields, dispel magic, simply having your finger be lopped off, or just having the ring be randomly stolen in a city all cut off the ring's power completely, and the ring won't come into advantage territory until you re-attune to it. Additionally, more chaos can be had over other players that want to have it for themselves. One of the greatest plot devices, an awesome way to show a player's true nature if you've seen it before and want a good way to get them out of there, and so much more. It can shape whole magic builds, create amazing encounters, all kinds of stuff, all with a simple ring.

In one of my campaigns, I had a item called a "spirit crystal" basically whenever you complete a section of the campaign, one of the npc's you met will give you a unique crystal which if you use it in combat then it will summon that npc and if they die then you can't use it for the rest of the battle but can use it in a different battle. There are other rules such as being unable to use multiple crystals or being able to sell them.

After certain campaigns have ended, my DM makes a habit of referencing them by making a special magic item related to them. My personal favorite was the Gauntlet of Magic Mastery; which was a reference to one of my previous characters. She was a high elf artificer that had the UA Maverick subclass where as you level up and reach certain milestone levels, your spell list expands to any class of your choice and can change your cantrips on a short rest. Basically, you were a full-caster with almost all the spells at high level, but with the slots of a half-caster. To combat this, she made use of a lot of magic items, mostly her infusions. She made herself a gauntlet that was her enhanced focus, which was filled to the brim with magic rings, mostly the spell restoring ring infusion and various spell restoring rings. Because of these really weird properties, it referred to as the dollar-store infinity gauntlet. In a later campaign set in the future, she ascended to near godhood and became an avatar of Mystra. Despite this, the powerful magic she once commanded remained in her former gauntlet, thus the birth of her magic item. It was kind of like a weaker Staff of the Magi, but with unique properties. It could be equipped by any spellcaster and the rings/gems will glow differently based on the class of the wielder. It granted access to various lower level spells based on the wielder’s classes, but will have a random selection of spells that the wielded normally wouldn’t be able to cast daily. It also had some charges to it. It will slowly gather charges daily, but you can also use your spell slots to restore them. You can either use the charges to cast the spells in the gauntlet or to refuel your own spell slots.

Tenacious Studded Leather Armor - given to a Dragonborn Druid. Functions like the Heavy Armor feat for a specific set of armor. (As made by group's original DM.) Magic Talons - Allows a Tabaxi Monk to apply their natural Unarmed Attack on top of their Martial Arts attack. In short, at Level 6, one is looking at 1d6 + 1d4 + Dex Mod for damage (and was doing more damage than me, the Strength-based fighter, on average). (Also made by Original DM.) Crocodile Scale Armor. A simple reskinning of regular Scale Mail Armor, that can be used by a Loxodon Druid, who, thanks to shield and Dex Mod, now has an A.C. of 18, which is a bit more than a fighter wearing Splint, for a similar price. Basically, made it by applying 86 gold (after rolling a d10 and d100) to the base value of Scale Mail armor. (My creation now that I'm the DM.) (And I *just* found out that the guy is switching to a monk - lol!) Of course, in a D&D inspired story, which involves the players playing as their characters, I've come up with some crazy items, like combining Adamantine and Mariner's Armors, which evolved into combining it with +3 and Mithral Armors..... and then there's the crazy weapons and shields, and the various armors that the group found in this store - background is that there's a Dragon Lord who has a deal with the owner of this store - owner sells the items for very cheap, in that a 20,000 gold item is only 1,000 gold, in return for splitting the price with the Dragon Lord, evenly. As for how the Dragon Lord gets these items - seems that he sells the gear that belonged to dangerous criminals that have been executed by him. In a way, it's a power statement - I'm so powerful, I can sell this stuff to Adventurers for a low price and not feel threatened by them.

Stormwhisper, a legendary longbow that applies an additional 2d6 lightning damage on a successful attack, and allows an attuned weilder to summon a bolt of lightning that automatically hits for 2d6+1 lightning damage and 2d6+1 force damage as a bonus action for a cost of 1 charge. The bow holds a maximum of 3 charges, and each takes 1 full day to renew. Alternatively, exposure to a lightning storm automatically rfills all charges (weather was an active concern innthis campaign). Actually, if I recall, I gave every party member a similarly powerful and unique weapon during that campaign, all tied to weather. Far from the best or most interesting magical items, but certainly some of my favorites.

@TheDmanHunter 3 года назад

my favorite magic item i've made was what i called the "Vampire Fang". It dealt normal dagger damage plus an extra d6 of necrotic, and the necrotic damage dealt would be stored in the hilt of the dagger that had what looked like a fang on the end. It could store up to 20 of this damage in the hilt, and as an action the PC using the dagger could stab them self with the hilt of the dagger, taking 1d4 piercing damage, and then gain the damage stored in the dagger as temporary hitpoints.

@Alcadeias90 3 года назад

I like coming up with balanced magical items. One of the items i am most proud of is Scabbard of frost: It's a small scabbard for a dagger, made of fine leather, with some runic symbols etched onto it which feel slightly cold to the touch. Any dagger sheathed in it for at least 1 hour will gain an extra 1d6 cold damage on the first attack after it is drawn (boon lost after an hour if nothing was struck and the Dagger wasn't sheathed back). Another item that i am still somewhat working on to fully fledge is similar to a vestige. It is a big longbow made of living wood and wrapped in vine, with 4 strings which can be plucked as if it was a lyra. Perfect for a bard archer. Near the "hilt", sharp seeds are growing and you can use item charges in an action to make those seeds grow into arrows (with the seed being the pointy tip) and fire off at enemies to produce AOE entanglements. I was also thinking of adding calm emotions for plants to the bow when one plays from its strings. Last item is something i plan to add to my campaign as a plot hook. An entire cloak made of encode thought strings weaved together made by a god of wisdom/knowledge. Someone wearing the cloak can attempt to concentrate and find a piece of information they want to know among the plethora of memories, like a monster weakness or something. Might even have a small chance of them getting confused and information overloaded. And ultimately they will assemble the memories of the god piece by piece to advance the plot and eventually meet the god.

My favs were the Phoenix stones and snake oil, but mostly the snake oil cause I can imagine a yaun ti character constantly using it and now want to make one. All of my homebrew items haven’t been tested but I’m still proud of them and hope to use them in the future. One of my most recent ones is a Dagger made of Chitin from a insect monster. It is 1/4 the weight of a regular dagger and does 1d6+mod +1d6 of poison, acid, etc depending on if the monster had such extra dmg or it was enchanted with extra dmg. In exchange for this increase in dmg it has a trait called Fragile where if you a nat1 the blade would break and if rolled a nat 5 or below it would be damaged. Doing only half dmg. Incase this happens, the user can have the blade replaced with a newly grown one. The dagger can grow and store three blades in total. One that is in use and two others as replacements. It regains a blade once per long rest. Another trait is that the user can press a button on the dagger and have the blade launch out of the hilt towards a target, like a ballistic knife, as a bonus action. If the target has doesn’t know of the daggers ability or seen it yet then the attack is done with advantage, but you can only gain this adv once if your in a room full of enemies that just saw you use it like that. If you were invisible or hidden then it can work again. All these abilities are probably more than enough, but I was thinking of making it so a launched blade does an extra d6 of dmg and have a range of 40/120. A more rarer variant does a d8 but the fragile feature increases to a nat 10 or below results in the blade be damaged.

I put a common magic item in my campaign called the "Ring of Consistency." Intended to speed up combat, it would guarantee that whenever you hit with an attack, you got the average damage for that attack, no more, no less.

Not mine, but an item one of my DMs made for another player. That player was a dual wielding fighter who had lost their arm in a trap earlier in the campaign and had been getting by with a metal prosthetic, essentially a gauntlet with a blade stuck to the end. Then, recently, we got him a new arm made. It was a warforged arm powered by magic runes that connects to the nerves in the stump of the arm. At base, the arm can magically create a magic sword at will that deals force damage, as well as a magic lasso that is essentially lightning lure but without the damage. The arm can later be upgraded with different runes to grant it extra effects. The arm has to be charged up during each rest using spell slots (I forget what total level) or it returns to just a prosthetic arm until it is recharged.

4:20 This Runecaster sounds a lot like the Caster Gun from _Outlaw Star._ Basically, magical shells that are loaded into the weapon via a breech-loaded, single-shot oversized pistol, and the shells effectively carry a spell within them. Different shells contain different 'spells', and since the magic is contained within the shell itself, people with no skill or knowledge in the magical arts can easily use the weapon to simulate/replicate magical effects. The protagonist of _Outlaw Star,_ Gene Starwind, uses it to great effect in combat.

Currently drawing up plans for my first time D.Ming and my friend asked me if he could have a Flame Tongue Shortsword, I said no it's very powerful for the level I'm running and it'd be unfair on the rest of the party. However we did work together to come up with an alternative. The weapon starts out as a broke Flame Tongue, dealing only 1d6 damage but once the sword has caused 12 damage to enemies (non hostile game animal's do not count) The rest of the sword appears as a Flame from the broken half of the sword. The weapon then has 2 charges and when a charge is spent it does the same effects as The Flame Tongue Shortsword. If you role a nat 20 before you've charged the weapon it does the Flame Tongue effect and if the sword is fully ignited already and a nat 20 is rolled it does not consume one of its charge slots.

A ten-foot long scarf that has a pocket in the end of it for a Mage Hand to use as a glove. It could be used for utilitarian purposes, such as for climbing, swinging, etc. However, it also has copper wires surrounded by a flat rubber casing within it, running along the scarf, and down each finger. The length of the casing has a series of small holes in the rubber... The user wears a copper ring with a peg in it that fits into a hole in the rubber wherever he grabs it, and, the Mage Hand filling the glove forces copper pegs out of the holes along the fingers...

The guitar can store up to 300 points of lightning damage that can be expelled in bits or all at once as a spell attack.

My favorite I've come up with is definitely an Amulet of the Zodiac. Once per day, the wearer can use an action to cast Polymorph on themselves with no material components, by pressing in a small button in the middle. However, the amulet randomly chooses which animal from among the Chinese zodiac you polymorph into, *and you cannot end the spell early, you must stay in that form the entire 1 hour duration or until you are reduced to 0 hitpoints.* You'd roll a d12 to determine the animal, a 1 being a snake and a 12 being a young gold (or other variety) dragon, in which case the rules of Polymorph apply as if it were a beast. The low chance to get the dragon and high risk of wasting turns if another animal is rolled makes it not likely to be abusable in combat, but very rewarding if that low chance *is* rolled. All in all, makes for some fun moments and good stealth for lower-leveled parties or that one paladin with disadvantage on it.

Hat of Screaming; a normal looking hat, but whenever the head hole is exposed or opened, it screams out as if it's in pain or terrified infinitely. (I didn't come up with this, but I put it in my game) Hat of Breeding; whenever it's left alone with another hat for long enough, it'll create a crossbreed hat with no magical properties. The one they got is a propeller hat, and they bred it with a fedora to get a rainbow propeller fedora. Nameless herbs "that enhance your perception"; when you eat it, you'd think it would give you a buff for perception, but it actually makes you perceive SO HARD that you become unable to see anything around you, but see the relative space on the astral plane. My world also has a custom pantheon, and each of the gods has their own magical relics, most in the form of weapons, but my favorite is probably a crystal hourglass. It has 3 charges and when smashed it reverses time for one entire turn. The only person that knows time was reversed is the person who smashed it, so unless they do something in their very limited time frame, everything plays out exactly the same as it did before.

When the welders blood touches the weapon it gets a massive upgrade. Making it stronger, lighter to swing faster, can release magic from it. It would be the same with a shield. Whatever the DM wants to put in it without making it busted.

I made a bullseye lantern that used a beholders central eye with an alchemical solution that had the effect of gentle repose in it a sun stone with continual light behind the eye so it projects light and the anti magic cone. The frame was made of admantine with mythril hinges and pins.

I had once made a homebrew set of full plate armor that allowed the wearer increased mobility, swim speed and the ability to breath while in water. It also had the ability to create a 60 foot diameter of tangling vines that had the ability to entangle enemies huge or smaller, while doing 4d4 peircing damaging at the start of each turn if still entangled. The ability is halved while on land. less range, less damage.

This is an idea a friend of mine had about a year ago. The Blade of Borrowed Life, It's a simple +1 dagger with one additional ability. Once a day when you hit with an attack you can charge this dagger with the life force drawn from your opponent. When charged the dagger stores healing potential equal to the damage done with that attack. Wail charged you can use an attack to stab your self or a willing creature and heal them with stored life force. The healing is equal to the damage of the declared attack. Now I know it is very broken but I don't really care. I just gave it to my party and I think it's going to be a nice healing jolt for our monk.

My only homebrew item so far, a magic Ukulele. Yes, you heard that right, an instrument with magic. It can be used as a weapon by bonking the creature on the head and does 1d6 damage. but it can also cast a healing spell (I can't remember which one) once per long rest. I haven't used it yet, but I presume the spell doesn't take up a spell slot. Ofc it can also be used as an instrument.

My character has an item the dm named “masque of dreadful words” It adds a +1 to charisma and an additional +1 to intimidation. Any time I make an intimidation roll, I have the option to treat the threat like vicious mockery, dealing psychic damage. It’s been a lot of fun using it on enemies with my characters (work in progress) Scottish accent.

I just came up with these items a couple days ago, and I'm still working out the specifics but I think they could be interesting for 5E. They are a series of magic items- (from weakest to strongest)a bracelet, a ring, an amulet, a wand, and a staff. Each is called the (item) of Magic Shaping. When attuned to a non-sorcerer caster each allows said caster to use Meta-magic with their normal spells. However, there are catches to this- each item initially comes with a charge of five Sorcery points, and these points can only be restored by the attuned caster sacrificing spell slots (points recovered are equal to the level of the spell slot burned i.e., 1 point for first level, 7 points for seventh level,etc.). Also, whenever the caster uses a meta magic spell, they have to roll for Wild Magic just like a Wild Sorcerer. The backstory of these items is that long ago a small group of wizards tried to research and replicate how Sorcerers were able to modify their spells on the fly. To do this, they tried analyzing each of the different types of Sorcerers. Ironically, they had the easiest time and success analyzing Wild Sorcerers. (Hence the risk of Wild Magic).

One I had for a character I made, he was a swashbuckler and his backstory was he used to be a ship captain before his ship was attack by a leviathan, everyone in his crew died to it leaving him the only survivor, and racked with survivors guilt, spent his days drinking to forget at the tavern of the town he washed up at, doing small tasks to make ends meet until he was adopted by the party. On to the magic item, to ensure he’s always shitfaced, the [Flask or Endless Alcohol] which was an altered [Decanter of Endless Water] changed so instead of Fresh or Salt Water, it could constantly produce any alcohol the holder wanted, at any proof as well (typically only used for high proof Whiskey). It could also do the Geyser command a regular Decanter or water could do, only with the added benefit of using high proof, and thus very flammable, alcohol. This was used rarely however due to a character trait of his where, this flask was a gift from his crew, and he felt it insulting to give it away so simply, the only time the *fire* hose trick was used was him “ Using help from his crew in ending a right BASTARD!” (HEAVILY slurred) and being down right insulted when the rouge suggested “ending this adventure to start a very profitable ‘brewery’ and making a living at selling cheap alcohol.” His only response being spat in the face with whiskey and a very slurred “there’s yer alcohol, now SHUT UP!”

My Cleric Blacksmith has been making weapons and armour for awhile now as I come up with a concept or design I particularly like. So far, my favorite is Moonbite! A gladius-style short sword crafted from an alloy of Starmetal and Krondorian Steel, inlayed with ironwood and silver in the form of Celtic knotwork depicting wolves and vines that up the blade from the ironwood hilt. Designed to hunt lycanthropes, Moonbite does double damage against them, has a 20% chance to rend any armour (yay, Starmetal), and can call down the Moonbeam spell once every eight hours. My DM also came up with a fun Dagger of Levitation that... Well, causes the target to levitate when it's stabbed into them, leading that player to tie a silk rope to it and occasionally use monsters as balloons, but Moonbite is my personal favorite. Ended up selling it to one of my other characters in a different party (who IS a werewolf and didn't want to run into the weapon in the wild.)

...I’ve got a set of six prepared for a planned Pathfinder game. They’re gems called the Elements of Harmony, and five of them transform into weapons of a type used by their bearer, with abilities themed around the qualities they represent. The sixth just grants extra spell slots... And a last-resort power that grants a Wish when fighting a particularly dangerous foe if the other five are nearby.

@nobodyimportant2470 3 года назад

One homebrew I have been toying with the idea of is a spell sword. At first glance it looks like a sword hilt but upon closer examination it has runes carved into it similar to those on wands. If detect magic is used you don't see anything because it is a magic void. To use the sword you hold it and cast a spell. The spell is eaten by the hilt and a blade is forged with attributes related to the spell used. Higher level spells will produce a more powerful and longer lasting blade. When the power of the spell is exhausted the blade dissolves.

You have the bow now make the sword(necro, psi, force, and poison) with the flower on the hilt, and an axe with 2 different blades for 2 different damage types(radiant, acid, thunder, and bludgeoning[the impact of a war hammer instead of cleaving like an axe])the flowers are between the blades.

I created a witch for a heavily homebrewed game, once. The character was focused on brewing potions and weaving poppets of other characters or enemies, and the DM gave me pretty much free reign to collect ingredients and design potions as I went. Perhaps my favorite set of potions was a pair: the muteness potion and the mutinous potion. They both looked incredibly similar, and while one could be splashed on someone to prevent them from speaking, the other would cause the affected person to suddenly recall every grudge and minor grievance they had ever held toward the people surrounding them. They resulted in some hilarious miscommunications.

I have a campaign built around elemental homebrew items. Theres life, death, fire, water, wind, earth, ice, and lightning. Here are some examples: The bracers of life has 2 charges a day that will heal a character, and both charges can be used to regrow a limb. The paintbrush of ice can be used as a whip to slash frost at opponents. Weak opponents make a DC 11 con save or begin to be frozen solid, and must use an action to smash the ice. The Quaking Warhammer ignores bludgeoning resistances, the user ignores difficult terrain made of rocks, and can cast tremor once per day. The crown of the wind: Physical attacks will cause the users blows to create cutting currents of wind, extending the reach of each blow by 5 feet, and having a small chance to move the target back 5ft (str DC 10) Jumping distance is increased by 10 ft as if you feel weightless, and movement is increased by 5 ft. I have a lot of other ones, but having items like these make the players feel pretty awesome without making them insanely OP

@kylestark1800 3 года назад

Gave this one to a starting player recently. A stone that can make a sustaining, if bland, gruel when added to a pot of clean water. As long as the water isn't filled with poison or disease it can be used. The water could be filled with pond scum or something otherwise inedible and change it to something more palatable. The dirtier the water or the more scraps the more complex the meal will become so long as it constitutes the rule that it be some sort of soup, stew or the like.

@LastGunslingerTull 3 года назад

I have 2, both from a recent campaign. 1) +1 Shield of Goblin vomit, provides the bonuses of a +1 shield in addition to a passive effect that makes a creature(s) roll a con save of 14 or better to resist vomiting. critical fail roles or NPCs with a con of 6 or below succumb automatically and have a chance to fall unconscious after shitting themselves. 2) Call of the Dead, a staff scythe combo with reach when wielded with 2 hands, 1d8 necrotic damage when wielded as a scythe 2h, 1d6 as a 1 hand weapon, 1d6 blunt damage when wielded 1 handed as a staff, 1d8 when dual wielded. This staff was owned by the last surviving member of a long forgotten race known as the Shades. The previous owner, and crafter Jorgan the Keeper of Souls died with it in his hands as an immortal being. Creatures killed by scythe have a chance to be raised as undead (the player doesnt know this yet ;) ) When wielded normally, it appears as a deep black staff with etchings of ancient necromancy and death magic. Wielder may Will the scythe blade to slide out of the top, the blade is a pure expression of necromancy and death magic. We are having way to much fun on this campaign

@bl0ndiey136 3 года назад

favorite homebrew weapon was the Chain Hammer of Force for my half-orc barbarian. i had to say the orcish word for “chain” and it would turn from a hammer into a 10 foot long mace and chain, also dealt force damage. i managed to roll a critical hit in a friendly inter-party pvp contest, combined my barbarian buffs and critical damage, and dealt something like 30 damage against our paladin in one shot.

@nvfury13 3 года назад

I was reminded of another one from a past campaign: The Alchemical Golem. Alchemical Golem - This construct is made of a special crystal glass as tough as iron, and is a hollow, (normally) humanoid shape typically 10 feet tall. It is inactive until filled with (up to six different) alchemical mixtures, once active it can: Consume liquids and inanimate materials which will convert to more of the mixture(s) inside. This process takes an hour per “use” of mixture. Spew any mixture inside itself, typically from its “mouth”, it can do so (in a typically sized one) six times per mixture before running out. If it runs out of a mixture it cannot recreate more of that mixture through consuming. Attempt to swallow a creature small enough (Small size or smaller), if it succeeds the creature is exposed to (a randomly determined) mixture inside it each round until it escapes/is rescued or dies. If it dies its body and any non-metallic (non-magical) gear is consumed (as per the Golem’s ability) over the course of a day. Edit: I also just was reminded of a certain very amusing time one was animated by an Alchemical Slime that lived inside it. That made for an interesting encounter.

That's a nasty piece of work; whose idea was it to have the orc relive trauma related to his mother? I don't blame the party for their decision; no matter what the specifics are, I wouldn't want that to happen to my worst enemy.

@caspercory6549 3 года назад

The Conduit: a +3 rapier forged out of Aether (based on the old theory Ether was a conduit for transmissions and radio waves). It can redirect Elemental magic and is attuned to a player because they burned themselves grabbing the hot blade during the forging process.

@saffronevans3665 2 года назад

I really like the idea of mildly useful but also inconvenient magical items. For example, the Ring of Cold, which emanated cold for a couple feet, or cools down the wearer. If you don't have cold resistance you can't wear it for more than an hour or you'll start taking cold damage, but it does give 1 minute of fire resistance daily. It is too inconvenient to just wear casually, so it would most likely not be in play unless the player had prep time for a fight with a fire creature. It would probably be useful to chill your food though, if you didnt mind the uncomfortable feeling of a quite cold bag against your back.

@JamesClafton Год назад

The Knockback Staff: normal damage +2, but on a crit success, would launch the opponent/enemy 1D20 x 5 yards. Usually this just meant it would take the opponent several rounds to get back in the fight. However, had one incident of opponent being launch off a cliff. However, my favorite part of this was when a goblin opponent attacked the wizard using this and the wizard managed to knock the goblin down onto his back and then struck the goblin again while he was still on the ground prone. This last strike hit as a crit success and the goblin ended up a smear of goblin blood and guts (think about a fast food Ketchup packet when you stomp on it).

@Gardiken 3 года назад

My favorite is basically the wabbajack from Skyrim. When used, roll a d20, whatever is rolled corresponds with a spell on a list of 20 effects based on the effects from Skyrim.
