I had the fortunate experience of working in a tea cafe for over 8 years while finding my footing in my craft. Tea has become such an integral part of my practice, and it'd be super rad to open my own witchy cafe and metaphysical shop someday 🖤

💎 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Shroud of the Unburied
Wondrous item, rare ___

This canvas burial shroud is permanently stained red and is worn like a cloak. When you’re reduced to 0 hit points while wearing the shroud but not killed outright, it magically wraps around you to protect your unconscious body. You immediately gain 25 temporary hit points, which remain for 10 minutes or until you regain any hit points, at which point the shroud unwraps from you. While you have these temporary hit points, you can neither gain nor suffer any death saving throw successes or failures, and whenever a creature within 10 feet of you deals damage to you, it immediately takes 2d12 necrotic damage.

Once the shroud has granted temporary hit points in this way, it can’t do so again until 3 days have passed. In the meantime, you must make a DC 5 Constitution saving throw whenever you finish a long rest. On a failed save, you gain only the benefits of a short rest, as you’re plagued by horrific visions of long-dead spirits. ___

Unorthadox Ways To Stop The Tarrasque:

Bap with newspaper.

Summon bigger, more aggressive Tarrasque.

Bribe with treats and smooches on the forehead.

"TIs music that soothes the savage beast" you say, pushing your bard forwards and running away.

Cancel it on twitter.

Smash all the things it was going to smash first. Your move, lizard boy.

Sit there and hope it has a heart attack before it gets here.

Attach to thousands of helium balloons. It's the sky's problem now.

Put bag on its head so it can't see anyone, assumes its already destroyed everything and goes back to sleep.

Dress Bugs Bunny up as a sexy lady tarrasque to distract it.

Gofundme Campaign.

Put up a "No Tarrasques" sign and call it a day.

More unconventional world-threatening disasters for your heroes to fight

The halflings have finally fucking snapped

Unfortunate political loophole gives ravenous ghoul total power, everyone upset at being eaten but insisting they need to respect the process.

World's greatest Archmage is drunk off their ass

There's some guy in a cape with glowing red eyes cackling and waving a skull staff around. He's not explicitly done anything wrong but, like, we kind of assume there must be something going on there. Right?

The blessed artifact that will save the world from the demon invasion has a big spider on it and no-one wants to go near it.

Someone gave the Tarrasque a knife

Every time someone casts a spell the moon comes one inch closer to the earth.

Oh shit the Elves just invented capitalism

Cursed item that will destroy the world if anyone says "rhubarb" near it. No-one knows which item it is.

Fire elemental desperately lonely and coming to the material plane for hugs.

There's one warlock who's just eldritch blasting everyone on the planet one by one, like an asshole.

Poorly considered Elder Evil Vacation Day coming up.

The GM is getting bored, and the PCs must entertain them from within the game lest they abandon the game and render their world non-existence.

✨New item!✨ Liquid Lightning Potion, very rare

Drinking this potion allows you to zip around for 1 minute as pure electricity. As a bonus action on each of your turns before the effect ends, you can transform into a bolt of lightning and instantly travel in a straight line to an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks and you are immune to lightning damage while in this form. You can pass through small holes, narrow openings, and even mere cracks, as well as through conductive materials such as metal. Each creature in your travel path must succeed on a DC 165 Dexterity saving throw, or take 3d6 lightning damage. You immediately revert to your normal form upon reaching the destination. This potion’s stormy liquid arcs with tiny bolts of lightning and it numbs the tongue when sipped. - 🖌🎨 Like our work?

Soulfetter

Quiver, rare (requires attunement)

Bonds that tie the mortal coils together are frowned upon in some polite societies, but many will fear things that they don’t understand. This quiver whispers words into the ear of its user, speaking the truths of those that it has bound before and those that it will bind in the future.

When you take a long rest, you can place up to 7 arrows or bolts into this quiver turning them into Soulfetter arrows or Soulfetter bolts upon completion of a long rest. These projectiles glow in a ghastly shade of blue and incorporeal chains appear around the quiver. The quiver can never carry more than 7 arrows or bolts. Any ammunition removed from the quiver becomes regular ammunition after 10 minutes unless it is fired.

Soulfetter Ammunition. You can use an action to fire Soulfetter ammunition. All creatures in a 30 ft. long by 1 ft. wide line in front of you must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, incorporeal chains appear between the creatures and they are considered bound. Until the start of your next turn, when a bound creature takes damage, all other bound creatures take half as much damage, rounded down, of the same type. If two or more bound creatures are struck by the same damage source, such as an AoE spell, no extra damage is applied, but bound creatures not struck by that damage source will still take half damage. Soulfetter ammunition disappears after it is fired.

Angst idea: the chain are in a dungeon and get trapped in the last room. No boss. Just a door and the knowledge that only the person with the most innocent blood on their hands can open.

Alchemicowl

Wondrous item, rare

Alchemists have toiled for years to extend the duration of their potions through additives and alternative brewing processes until an artificer postulated that the delivery method could be improved. By aerosolizing potions to be inhalable instead of imbibing them, it was found that they could be much improved.

While wearing this cowl, you can use an action to slot or replace potion bottles in the two valves on it. When at least one potion is slotted, you can use a bonus action on your turn to activate one or both of the slotted potions. If the potion has a duration, that duration is doubled. If the potion doesn’t have a duration, then it is instantly applied. Additionally, you gain advantage on saving throws against aerosolized effects such as gas traps or the stinking cloud spell.
