Vintage Treasures

The blade of this +1 greataxe bears a design of a human skull.

Whenever a creature damages you with an attack, the skull changes its appearance to look like the face of that creature. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus to your next damage roll against that creature before the end of your next turn.

Because the face reshapes each time you're damaged, you get the additional damage only if you attack the creature that damaged you most recently.

This black velvet cloak is featureless and very soft to the touch. Upon wearing it for the first time, you're momentarily overwhelmed with a sense of comfort and coziness. While wearing this cloak you can comfortably rest in any space, so long as it's not wet or particularly hazardous. While sleeping in this cloak you only take a -2 status penalty to auditory Perception checks, rather than a -4 status penalty.

These tattoos were first created using designs and techniques from the seven Shoanti clans. Each clan is known for one tattoo in particular. The clans would seal alliances in ancient days by tattooing their emblems on members of other clans to symbolically share their gifts. Though these tattoos are respected, the clans reserve their most prestigious symbols for true members of the clan. The tattoo allows you to understand and speak Shoanti. If you already know that language, you instead gain a +1 item bonus on Diplomacy checks you make when speaking Shoanti to someone who understands it.

The tattoo of the Moon clan depicts the outline of a moon, devoid of any detail.

A ring of discretion magically conceals any armor and sheathed weapons you're wearing by either turning them invisible or creating the illusion of ordinary clothes. The ring doesn't change your appearance beyond concealing weapons and armor. As soon as you wield a weapon affected by the ring, the weapon becomes obvious to onlookers and is no longer affected until you sheathe the weapon for at least 1 minute. A creature can use the Seek action to examine you and disbelieve this illusion ([[/act seek dc=15]]{DC 15}), and it can attempt to do so without using an action each time it hits you with an attack.

Many soldiers wear this metal pendant engraved with their name and critical details. Sadly, they also ascertain the identity of fallen soldiers.

Faint, delicate etchings of lightning trace across the blade of this +1 cold iron shortsword. Cold iron is made from particularly pure sources of iron and shaped with little to no heat, resulting in weapons deadly to demons and fey alike.

Once per day, you can spend 1 action to point the sparkblade at a foe within 30 feet of you and shoot an arc of lightning from the blade.

When you put on this belt, its silver buckle begins to glow, which slowly spreads into the heart-shaped jewel in the center. You increase your maximum Hit Points and current Hit Points by 4. If you remove the belt, you immediately decrease both your maximum and current HP by 4.

These cool noodles are served with dark fermented sauces and vinegars before finally being tossed with spicy chili oil.

These minor magic items are painted to resemble your face, or some metaphorical depiction thereof, to encourage the ushers of death to take the mask in your place. If you begin your turn with a dying value of 3 or greater, instead of making your recovery check, you lose the dying condition but remain unconscious at 0 Hit Points. The mask then cracks in half and is destroyed. The psychopomps won't be so easily fooled again-you are temporarily immune to the effects of any psychopomp mask for 1 year.

Usage affixed to armor

Activation F envision

Trigger You succeed at an Acrobatics check to Tumble Through, but you don't have enough Speed to move all the way through the enemy's space

While most residents of—and travelers to—the Five Kings Mountains live underground, a significant number of people explore the regions' awe-inspiring peaks. Among their many discoveries on Emperor's Peak is a deposit of rainbow-colored rock crystal quartz with inherent magical properties that aid in survival, especially in the mountains. Dwarven artisans fashion chunks of this translucent quartz into fashionable bracelets.

Wearing such a bracelet grants you a +1 item bonus to Survival checks to Sense Direction and Subsist. This bonus increases to +3 when in mountainous terrain. If you attempt a Survival check to Subsist after 8 hours or less of exploration, you take only a –2 penalty instead of a –5 penalty.

This simple charm is made from compacted grave dirt infused with bone dust. A Harm spell that's empowered by this catalyst can reach faraway targets. If the harm spell is cast with 1 action, its range is 30 feet; if it's cast with 2 actions, its range is 60 feet. This has no effect on the three-action area version of harm, though in most cases, you don't have enough actions to Activate the token and cast a three-action harm anyway.

A lesser variant of the Serum of Sex Shift with some interesting quirks, a potion of passing fancy is a staple of Arshean artisans, and most temples keep at least a few doses at hand. Upon drinking the potion, your appearance changes, taking on different sex characteristics in line with another gender expression. You have little control over the details of the change, but it lines up with your deepest heartfelt ideal. More importantly, unlike the serum of sex shift, a potion of passing fancy doesn't impart the "family resemblance" effect; thus, a drinker too shy or afraid of being recognized to publicly express another gender as themself can experience the change more anonymously.

A potion of passing fancy's effects last for 1 hour before slowly fading over 10 minutes; drinking another before the effect fully ends resets its duration and undoes any fading. If you extend the effect this way a fourth consecutive time, your actual form stabilizes with your current characteristics while retaining a "family resemblance" to your original form, as per the effects of a single serum of sex shift.

A bane rune causes a weapon to grant you improved understanding of creatures of a particular type, allowing you to deal more damage to those creatures. The crafter chooses aberration, animal, beast, celestial, construct, dragon, elemental, fey, fiend, giant, monitor, ooze, or both fungus and plant. The weapon deals 1d6 additional damage of the weapon's damage type to creatures with the chosen trait or traits. The benefit doesn't apply against creatures of the chosen type disguised as other creatures. It's up to GM discretion whether the bane rune applies against a creature disguised as a creature of the chosen type.

The GM might allow bane runes for other creature traits, such as astral, dream, or demon. However, humanoids, undead, and specific types of humanoids (such as elves) are never a valid option.

A garment with this rune is always clean, as though it had just been affected by Prestidigitation. You gain a +1 item bonus to Make an Impression on those who would be impressed by a particular presentable outfit while wearing this garment.

The four different types of scroll cases of simplicity often bear adornments appropriate to their magical tradition, such as angelic wings or otherworldly lettering. On the inside, intricate runic diagrams spiral out to surround the scroll stored within. A scroll placed within the case can be converted into energy to cast consistently useful spells depending on its type. You must be able to cast spells of a given tradition to use a scroll case of simplicity of a corresponding type.

Activate A Interact

Requirements The scroll case contains a single scroll of a 1st-rank spell

Effect You transfer the scroll's energy into the scroll case, consuming the scroll, and you can immediately begin casting one of the scroll case's spells. If you use any action other than to Cast a Spell from the scroll case after activating the scroll case of simplicity, the scroll and its energy are lost.

The scroll case can be used to cast Tailwind or Vanishing Tracks
