Characters

Notable Loot

Permanent Items

Sorted by rarity

Spyglass

Mundane Item
A spyglass inlayed with mother-of-pearl and held in a specially designed chest lined with purple velvet pillows.
Magnifies objects at distance.

Drowned Ring

Ring, Minor
The ring has a magical quirk that causes its wearer to experience a recurring nightmare after sleeping for more than 1 hour with the ring on. The nightmare is vivid: the wearer is engulfed by a sperm whale while clinging to a floating barrel on a stormy sea. After being swallowed whole in the nightmare, the ring wearer awakens, no worse for wear.

Layflat Rug

Wondrous Item, Minor
Originally a rug of smothering, much of the magic has degraded over the years. Now, when thrown on the ground, this rug simply lays itself out flat and occasionally shudders, kicking off dust.

Hat of Vermin

Wondrous Item, common
This dusty old cap has 3 charges. While holding the hat, you can use an action to expend 1 of its charges and speak a command word that summons a bat, a frog, or a rat (see the Player’s Handbook or the Monster Manual for statistics). The summoned creature magically appears in the hat and tries to get away from you as quickly as possible. The creature is neither friendly nor hostile, and it isn’t under your control. It behaves as an ordinary creature of its kind and disappears after 1 hour or when it drops to 0 hit points. The hat regains all expended charges daily at dawn.
While wearing this black hat, with two large felt ears, your name is magically written on it in yellow stitching. When you take it off, the name disappears.

Ordine Sage’s Robes (Robe of Useful Items)

Wondrous Item, uncommon
This Robe of Useful Items has silk patches of various shapes covering it. While wearing the robe, you can use an action to detach one of the patches, causing it to become the object or creature it represents. Once the last patch is removed, the robe becomes an ordinary garment. It has patches for the following:
• a dagger
• steel mirror (USED)
• 10 ft. pole (USED)
• 50 ft. hempen rope
• a riding horse (mechanical in nature, otherwise the same) (USED)
• 4 potions of healing (1 USED)
• a 1st level spell scroll
• a bag of 100gp
This white robe has gold detailing, and all of its patterns look very orderly. The robe itself gives its wearer a sense of assuredness, as if there is a purpose to every action taken and seen. This item can be found in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

Shield of the Moon

Wondrous Item, uncommon
This shield +1 is painted to resemble The Moon. While equipped the bearer can use a bonus action to cause the shield to glow with a soft moonlight. This soft white light extends 20’. No colors can be discerned in the moonlight, and all objects show up as shades of grey.

Ward of the Martyr

Wondrous Item, uncommon
This periapt of health takes the form of a pair of silver bound hands on a rope made of the hair of penitents. A priest of Ilmater may use it as a holy symbol.
You are immune to contracting any disease while you wear this pendant. If you are already infected with a disease, the Effects of the disease are suppressed you while you wear the pendant.

Auntie Sue’s Broom

Wondrous Item, uncommon
This broom of flying is old, ratty, and nothing to look at, however in addition to its normal command words, you may speak an additional one to have the broom start cleaning a 5ft radius on its own. Once that area is clear it moves to the next one until all surfaces are clean or you speak the command word.
This wooden broom, which weighs 3 pounds, functions like a mundane broom until you stand astride it and speak its Command word. It then hovers beneath you and can be ridden in the air. It has a flying speed of 50 feet. It can carry up to 400 pounds, but its flying speed becomes 30 feet while carrying over 200 pounds. The broom stops hovering when you land.
You can send the broom to Travel alone to a destination within 1 mile of you if you speak the Command word, name the Location, and are familiar with that place. The broom comes back to you when you speak another Command word, provided that the broom is still within 1 mile of you.

Moon Strike, Short Bow +1

Weapon, Short Bow, Uncommon
This intricately carved short bow was a gift from the Moon Elves of Cormanthor. In Darkness or low light, arrows short from this bow appear as bright streaks of moonlight as they fly towards their target.

Moradin's Long Reach, Glaive +1

Weapon, Glaive, Uncommon
This glaive is carved with dwarven runes of power and a holy symbol of Moradin, crafted by a now-lost dwarven clan. Used by paladins of Moradin for many years, it was lost during a massive orc invasion and looted. Over the years, it made its way to the Moonsea region via adventurers. It has a minor illusory effect to look like a polearm of the wielder's choice while it is in their possession, but otherwise functions as a glaive. While in possession of the item, the bearer feels fortunate and optimistic about what the future holds. Butterflies and other harmless creatures might frolic in the item’s presence.
Its current wielder causes its appearance to be that of a naginata, a pole-bladed weapon from the far east.

Driftglobe

Wonderus Item, Uncommon
This small sphere of thick glass weighs 1 pound. If you are within 60 feet of it, you can speak its command word and cause it to emanate the light or daylight spell. Once used, the daylight effect can't be used again until the next dawn. You can speak another command word as an action to make the illuminated globe rise into the air and float no more than 5 feet off the ground. The globe hovers in this way until you or another creature grasps it. If you move more than 60 feet from the hovering globe, it follows you until it is within 60 feet of you. It takes the shortest route to do so. If prevented from moving, the globe sinks gently to the ground and becomes inactive, and its light winks out.
The light has a somewhat stormy, unstable luminescence and the command words are all references to Umberlee.

Consumable Items

Potion of Healing (2)

Potion, common
A shimmering red and purple liquid held in a hollowed out urchen shell.
When you drink it, you are cured for 2d4+2 hit points.

Elixir of Health

Potion, rare
When you drink this potion, it cures any disease afflicting you, and it removes the blinded, deafened, paralyzed, and poisoned conditions. The clear red liquid has tiny bubbles of light in it.

Potion of Healing, Greater

When you drink it, you are cured for 4d4+4 hit points.

Conchshell of Shelter

When the triggering note is played and sustained for six seconds, the shell creates the effect of the Tiny Hut spell. The shell crumbles to dust after being used.

Quaal's Feather Token (Anchor)

You can use an Action to touch the token to a boat or ship. For the next 24 hours, the vessel can't be moved by any means. Touching the token to the vessel again ends the Effect. When the Effect ends, the token disappears.

Traded Loot

Torag’s Hammer

Weapon (warhammer), uncommon
Torag “crafted” this magical warhammer from the thighbone of the biggest, meanest troll to assail Goldenfields in recent memory. Those who wield it swear the weapon feeds on gore, growing slightly larger after every bloody encounter. Measurements don’t support this belief. However, Torag’s Hammer is always uncannily clean...
