Putting it in a vial that isn't correctly prepared will melt the glass, and attempting to apply it to weapons that lack magical protection will cause extreme pitting on the metal, often melting right through it. The safest way to handle it is with tools, containers, and vials lined with or made from pure copper.

Void's Blood (Contact, Ingested, Inhaled, or Injury) The flower known as the black lotus is legendary - even amongst the gods. Its properties allow it to be used for a number of purposes: from fulfilling wishes, becoming one with the energies of other planes, and being used in high magic spells. But creating a poison out of the nectar is one of many uses. The nectar is not inherently dangerous on it's own, but when distilled with a number of highly rare ingredients and dangerous reagents, it becomes the most deadly and volatile substance imaginable - so much so, that it's destructive capability and propensity to absolutely destroy a being - body, mind, and soul - has not only outlawed it in almost every kingdom, but also most worlds and planes - as it is seen as heinous and taboo in it's way to completely sever a being from reality itself (including deities). Acquisition: Finding the recipe for this poison is nearly impossible - as many mortal and extraplanar entities have gone out of their way to destroy any and all trace of it's existence. This poison is refined from the extraordinarily rare black lotus flower, and with several expensive and powerful alchemy reagents, including units of dendricite, animite, and chlorophyte - taking several months to produce the silky void black, vaguely luminescent and foggy oil. Market Value: Priceless Legality: Highly Illegal and Sacrilegious Saving Throw DC: 30 Effect: This silky void of a liquid has no taste, no smell, no texture, never expires, and never loses potency. When exposed to open air, the black oil subsumes a white vapor indiscernible from regular white smoke. A creature subjected to this poison by any means must make a Constitution saving throw or take 28 (5d10) force, 28 (5d10) poison, 28 (5d10) psychic, and 28 (5d10) aetherion damage, or half as much damage on a successful one. This damage ignores all resistances and immunities. Regardless of if they succeeded the saving throw, they become poisoned. While poisoned in this way, the creature's Hit Points can never recover, they can never regain spells slots, they have their AC reduced by 5, and take 3 levels of exhaustion (even if they were previously immune to exhaustion). The poisoned creature must repeat the saving throw at the end of every turn, taking the same damage on a failed save. After three successful saving throws, the creature is no longer poisoned. If the creature's hit points are reduced to 0 by this poison, it eats away their body, mind, and soul, leaving nothing remaining. They cannot be restored to life by anything short of a wish spell. Handling this poison is incredibly dangerous - as one wrong move can end up erasing one would-be assailant from existence. Even the process of distilling this deadly, taboo substance will undoubtedly stir the ire of many powerful beings - and some may even take active steps to stop it from coming to existence. 65

Phial of Resurrection Potion, very rare A Glowing, golden liquid resides inside this vial, it's contents sparkling and swirling. If held to the ear, a very faint heartbeat can be heard. If you pour the contents of this potion into the mouth of a dead creature, they immediately come under the effects of the "Resurrection" spell. Potion of Glibness Potion, very rare A favorite of diplomats, royalty, and the particularly shrewd trader - this seemingly liquid silver potion bubbles ever so slightly - and when uncorked, faint, harmonious humming can be heard within. When consumed, the creature comes under the effect of the "Glibness" spell for 1 hour. Potion of Primal Savagery Potion, rare Found amongst the brutal, wild and the desperate - this potion consists of a yellow-white liquid, which suspends inside it a small, sharp fang. When uncorked, the fang rapidly evaporates and the liquid begins bubbling violently and producing a bloody smelling mist. When consumed, the creature begins to - painfully - extend both their fingernails into claws, and their teeth into fangs. They come under the effects of a 5th level "primal savagery" cantrip for 1 minute - making their unarmed attacks deal 2d10 slashing or piercing damage (claw or fang). Potion of Prowess Potion, legendary This ghastly, bright, white-blue liquid gives off a faint humming that can be heard even from several feet away. Its contents are always swirling with what look like small figments of bull hair. If the stopper is removed, the hairs within all ignite into white-hot embers, and the liquid begins spinning into a vortex within - a high pitched humming can be heard, and the mixture becomes blinding to look at. When consumed, the creature begins to glow the same color as the liquid, and comes under the effects of "Tensers Transformation" - without the need to maintain concentration, for 10 minutes. You gain 50 Temporary hit points. If any of these remain when the effects end, they are lost. You have advantage on attack rolls you make with simple and martial weapons. When you hit a target with a weapon attack, that target takes an extra 2d12 force damage. You have proficiency in with all armor, shields, simple weapons, and martial weapons. You have proficiency in Strength and Constitution saving throws. You can attack twice, instead of once, when you take the Attack action on your turn. You ignore this benefit if you already have a feature, like Extra Attack, that gives you extra attacks. Immediately after the effects end, you must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or suffer one level of exhaustion. 71

Potion of Unleashed Potential Potion, mythical This potion is a rarity amongst both mortals and divine. Sought by kings, tyrants, demon lords, angelic protectors, commoners, and thieves alike - these vials of deep, murky dark purple liquid are spotted with motes of starlight within. The container which holds it seemingly vibrating in place at the raw power held inside it's thin walls. These potions are incredibly rare, and just finding one will possibly attract attention the likes of which could be extremely beneficial - or horrifyingly terrible. When the stopper is undone, the contents within begin to exude a wispy fog of purples, blues, blacks, and greys - mottled with with glowing embers of light - and whispers of promises, power, and potential can be heard. The liquid is beyond ice cold. When consumed, the creature is granted a Wish, as per the "Wish" spell. Potion of Wrath Potion, rare A favorite amongst brutes, warriors, thugs, and soldiers - this pitch black, tar-like liquid produces small bubbles of blood-like bursts throughout itself. Smelling like spoiled blood, burning metal, and pure alcohol, this potion tastes as bad as it looks, and is especially syrupy when poured. When consumed, the creature flies into a fit of anger, coming under the effects of a barbarian's "rage" - a barbarian drinking this gains additional benefits and does not use a rage point. While raging, you gain the following benefits if you aren't wearing heavy armor: You have advantage on Strength Checks and Strength saving throws. When you make a melee weapon Attack using Strength, you gain a +2 bonus to the damage roll. You have Resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage. If you are able to cast Spells, you can't cast them or concentrate on them while raging. Your rage lasts for 1 minute.

You can also end your rage on Your Turn as a Bonus Action. Barbarians who drink the potion gain the following: You not only have advantage on Strength check and Strength saving throws - but you also gain a +2 to both. Your rage damage bonus is increased by 2. You not only have resistance to physical damage, but you also ignore 5 points of any damage that is dealt - even from magical. Power Pole Weapon (quarterstaff), legendary (requires attunement) Crafted from Aetherwood - stained with red paint. You gain a +3 bonus on attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. Can be used as a spellfocus. When targeted by a spell attack or similar magical effect, you gain a +3 "Parry" AC bonus to the attack.

Expending one of the weapon’s charges, you can take the Dodge action as a bonus action on your turn. Stretch. While holding this staff, you can spend a charge and speak its command word as a bonus action to cause it to extend outwards from each end at a rate of 30 feet - per charge - each turn. Each end of the rod only stops extending if you will it to stop, the rod hits a solid surface, or the rod reaches a total extended length of 150 feet. While stretched, the weapon’s reach equals its length, and you have advantage on Dexterity (acrobatics) checks. If either end might strike a creature no more than one size larger than you while extending, that creature must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the rod strikes the target and you may choose whether to stop the rod's extension or will it to continue. If you will it to continue, then you must roll a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) check. If you succeed, then the target is stunned until the rod finishes extending. If you fail, then the rod stops extending. If both ends of the rod extend and stop at solid surfaces which can hold it in place, the rod can support up to 1,000 pounds. You can make the rod retract by using a bonus action to either let go or speak the command word again. It has AC 15 and 20 hit points. 72

Tassels of Enchantment Wondrous Item, rare (+1), very rare (+2), legendary (+3) (requires attunement) These magical charm tassels are made from a variety of substances - usually carved bone, engraved stones, gilded feathers, or intricately forged metal symbols, and affixed to a series of woven hair, rope or string You can affix these magical tassels to a weapon, shield or suit of armor. That item gains a bonus to attack and damage rolls if it is a weapon, or a bonus to AC conferred if it is armor or a shield. The bonus depends on the rarity of the tassels, and the tassels cannot be affixed to a magic item. Vorpal Spear Weapon (any spear that deals piercing damage), legendary (requires attunement) You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. In addition, the weapon ignores resistance to piercing damage. When you attack a corporeal creature and roll 20 on an attack roll, you impale the creature, killing it instantly. A creature is immune to this effect if the creature is incorporeal, immune to piercing damage, has legendary actions, or the DM decides it is too large to be impaled. Such a creature instead takes an extra 6d8 piercing damage from the hit. Zephyr Shield Armor (shield), rare (requires attunement) This spiraling, bronzed mithral shield is enchanted with a set of intricate runes, forming the image of interlocking vortexes of wind - and weighs incredibly light. This shield has 5 charges and regains 1d4+1 charges at dawn.

Zetto's Bottled Maelstroms Wondrous Item, very rare The primordial power of the destructive forces of nature, barely contained within the flasks in your hand. These elemental bombs are one of the few - but powerful - creations brought upon by the elemental studies of the Legendary Battlemage: Zetto Mildari. When you're too busy to cast a spell in trouble, or unable to set up an oil & alchemists fire bomb - using these flasks can enable adventurers to clear rooms, level structures, and create chokepoints in a matter of seconds. Fairly simple - yet elegant - in design these glass flasks are covered in gold plated ceramics etched with intricate runes that continuously contain the elemental substance. Upon impact with a hard surface, the flask and ceramics shatter and release the contents within. The ensuing release of energy is both explosive and volatile, resulting in a swirling mass of gyrating elemental energies As an Action, you can throw the flask. This weapon counts as a "finesse" weapon for the sake of the throw. Make an improvised ranged weapon attack, up to 60 feet away. The flask explodes upon impact, releasing a swirling maelstrom of the predetermined type: A storm of elemental energies spreads from the center of impact out in a radius of 60 feet. This storm lasts for 5 rounds (30 seconds), and is considered difficult terrain. All Creatures in the area upon initial impact must make a DC 15 Dexterity Saving throw, taking (4d8) elemental damage and are knocked prone on a failure; or half damage and no prone on a success. All creatures who start their turn inside the maelstrom -or walk into it - must make the check above. Bomb Types The following table contains the types of Maelstroms found within the flasks. Contents Color Element Lime Droplets Acid White Frost Cold Red Flames Fire Grey Streams Force Blue Bolts Lightning Black Fog Necrotic Silver Sparks Physical Green Gases Poison Pink Screaming Faces Psychic Yellow Flashes Radiant Purple Pulses Thunder Multicolor Nebula Aetherion Why not higher rarity - bottled maelstroms? As with the Annihilation javelins, The purpose for bottled maelstroms being "very rare" as opposed to "legendary" is due to being limited use items. Make no mistake, these are incredibly powerful and legendary. 74

Zetto's Tomes of Elementalism Wondrous Item, legendary These tomes are relics left behind by the legendary elemental wizard and arcane warrior: Battlemage Zetto Mildari. Zetto spent his life focused on the more martial focus of elemental and war magics, living in a time of war against the dragon hoards of ages past, and knowing that not every warrior could wield magic, he focused his studies on ways to derive magic energies in more physical manners. His studies led him to discover and invent various new methods of spells and abiltiies that turned the tide in many a battle against those who stood in his way. His malleable view on magic allowed him to forge the weave into tomes of his choosing, creating books that - when read - would tap into the pools of elemental magic that gave him such great power...for a price. Raw Conduits - These tomes are written in cipher and a multitude of arcane languages that tap into their respective sources of elements, which when read, are activated, burn pages within the book and the magical reagents that are contained within the writing itself - This activates a conduit into the weave that instills raw power into the reader. The command words are contained within the front cover of each book. Requiring an DC 15 Arcana Check to properly read and understand. After which, all one needs to do to activate the book is open it to its gilded pages, recite the command word, and witness the symbols, runes, and ciphers magically flitter across each page with extreme speed, and then endure the price that comes with reading the tome... A Price for Power - After reading the tome, the conduit opened by the weave must now be endured. As pure magic pours from the burning pages, the reader must now be able to face the raw power of their chosen element. As the raw elemental energies surge through the reader, they must make a DC 15 Constitution Saving throw taking (4d10) damage of the chosen elemental type - or half as much damage on a success - as their body struggles to contain the energy. After they have succeeded in retaining the energy, their body is now overcharged with raw elemental power - which is now evident by the flaring aura of that element. This power transfers into corresponding elemental spells as well as melee, & ranged attacks. Unfortunately, the overcharge comes at a price - both of sight and body - as the reader loses their initial sight, becoming blind for the duration. Additionally, the overcharge does not confer any form of superior resistance or immunity to the damage type (save for any pre-existing resistances or immunities the reader may have had.) The reader, hoewever, does take less damage from the elemental type. Tome of Elementalism Written by Zetto the Battlemage, This sacrificial tome is inscribed with words of elemental power and serves as a conduit that instills raw energy into those who read the contents within. Each Tome has 3 Charges, which cannot be replenished once expended. Only 1 charge can be used every 24 hours Command Words A Tome of Elementalism is inscribed with a command Word written in Primordial on the inside front cover (read 'Raw Conduits'). Energy Backlash After reading the Tome, one must make a saving throw to endure the tumultuous output of elemental energy being weaved into them (read 'A Price for Power'). Elemental Overcharge Once read and endured, the reader is now instilled wtth resonating elemental energy of the chosen type. Sacrificial Tome As the Tome is read, the pages burn with arcane energy and are rendered useless and ruined after being used. After all 3 charges are expended, the book disintegrates into fine white dust. Elemental Overcharge The Reader of the Tome becomes overcharged with elemental energy. The following effects last for 5 minutes. Elemental energy wraps and races across your body, creating effects similar to the selected element in the "Elementalism Table". You take 10 less damage of the associated type. The raw flow of power from the tome's pages scours itself into your sight, rendering your normal sight useless for the duration, but gaining blindsight for 60 feet for the duration. Any Creature that moves within 5 feet of you the first time on a turn or ends its turn there takes (1d10) Elemental damage All melee and ranged attacks the reader makes deal an additional (4d10) Elemental damage All spells that deal the associated damage type deal an additional (4d10) Elemental damage more. Spells that do not deal the associated damage type deal an additional (2d10) Elemental damage instead, as the energy warps the spells power output. (A Spell must deal damage in some way for this to apply) 75

E Modular Magic Items very magical item has properties which can go from dealing additional damage, giving resistance to a particular damage type, allowing a character to cast spells, increase their attributes and more. This section gives both players and DMs some guidelines to create custom magic items, which can also be crafted using the previous rules. The character level determines the recommended levels a character should have to gain access to a specific tier. For example, a 3rd level character should have a tier 1 item, while a 9th level character can have a tier 3 item or lower. A Magical item can only be enchanted or magically altered up to 3 separate times after their initial creation; therefore, a magical item made from exceptionally rare materials and high enchantments to start with will yield a more powerful magical weapon after being further enchanted. Character Level Item Tier Item's Rarity 1st - 4th Tier 1 Common 5th - 8th Tier 2 Common 9th - 12th Tier 3 Uncommon 13th - 16th Tier 4 Rare 17th - 20th Tier 5 Very Rare 21st - 24th Tier 6 Legendary 25+ Tier 7 Mythical Item Tiers Any magic item created using these rules have an item tier, which determines the number and rarity of properties for that item. For more information about uncommon and rarer properties, see the "Item Properties" section, below. A tier 1 item has only a minor property, tier 2 and higher items can have one minor property alongside their other properties that gives a simple feature or effect to it for free. The following table shows the properties rarity for magic items for every tier. Property Rarity per Tier Tier Property 1 Property 2 Property 3 Property 4 Tier 1 Minor - - - Tier 2 Uncommon Uncommon - - Tier 3 Rare Uncommon - - Tier 4 Rare Rare Uncommon - Tier 5 Very Rare Rare Rare - Tier 6 Legendary Very Rare Rare - Tier 7 Mythical Legendary Very Rare - Artifact Mythical+ Mythical+ Legendary+ Very Rare+ Item Properties In the following tables you can find various magical properties divided by type. It's up to the DM to determine if an item can have the same property multiple times and if its possible to add a property to a particular item. For example, a character can't add the Armor I property twice to a tier 3 magic armor, and that character cannot add the Weapon II or Vampiric II properties since an armor isn't made for dealing damage. Spells and Charges If an item has the charges or spell properties, the creator must decide which spell to add when creating the item. The character must have proficiency in the Arcana skill and must provide any material components required for the casting of the spell. Moreover, the character must have the spell prepared, or it must be among the character's known spells, in order to add that spell to the item. For items with the Spell property, a character can choose only one spell to add. The spell level is determined by the charges in the property rarity. For example, an item that has the Spell III property with the lightning bolt spell, that spell will be cast as a 7th-level spell every time a character uses it. For items with charges, a character can choose to add various spells. The number of spells and the spell level is determined by the rarity of the property, as shown in the following table. Property Number of Spells Maximum Spell Level Charges I 1 1st Charges II 2 3rd Charges III 3 5th Charges IV 4 7th Charges V 5 9th Each charge equals 1 spell slot level. For example, expending 1 charge allows the character to cast a 1st-level spell the item has, and expending 5 charges allows the character to cast a 5th-level spell the item has. 77

Refer to Page 219 of the Dungeon Master's Handbook for further details for crafting artifacts. 80

Evolving Items You can use the modular magic item rules for creating an item that will evolve with a specific character. First, make sure to give something to the item so it makes the character the only one to use it, such as adding a class prerequisite for attuning to the item. You can also link it with the character's story and important events, like being the weapon his father used when he was an adventurer. Evolving Requirements To evolve an item to a tier, the character must be at least at the minimum level required for each tier to evolve the item. For example, a 7th level character cannot evolve his or her magic item to tier 3 until reaching 9th level. Additionally, even if a character has level to evolve the item to the next tier, it's up to the DM to determine an additional task or a triggering event to allow the item to evolve. This requirement gives a bit of background to the item, and also allows the DM to create some special quests to discover the item hidden features. Here're some sample requirements you can use: The character must slay a number of creatures with the weapon. The item must be placed on the altar found in the top of an abandoned wizard tower, or an ancient grave to the character's ancestors. The character must gain a deity or other entity's favor. The character must defeat an old enemy of the weapon's creator. The item evolves after saving a group of innocents from the claws of a tyrant. The character must execute a light (or dark) ritual. The item evolves when the character makes a big sacrifice for a personal cause. Item Tiers and Evolving Items Whenever an item evolves into a new tier, you can upgrade the properties to a rarer level following the same table from the Item Tiers section. Tier 1 Common items without any special property - or a Minor property. Tier 2 When it evolves to this tier: you can add two Uncommon properties to the item. Tier 3 When it evolves to this tier: you can upgrade one Uncommon property to Rare. Tier 4 When it evolves to this tier: the item gains an extra Uncommon property you can upgrade one Uncommon property to Rare. Tier 5 When it evolves to this tier: you can upgrade one uncommon property to Rare. you can upgrade one Rare property to Very Rare Tier 6 When it evolves to this tier: you can upgrade one rare property to Very Rare. you can upgrade one Very Rare property to Legendary. Tier 7 When it evolves to this tier: you can upgrade one Rare property to Very Rare. you can upgrade one Very Rare property to Legendary. you can upgrade one Legendary property to Mythical. Artifact When it evolves to this tier: the item gains an extra Very Rare property. You can upgrade one Legendary property to Mythical. You can upgrade one Very Rare property to Legendary. The item also gains additional features with your DM's approval according to the Artifact. Taking and Replacing Properties Since these rules are based on evolving the weapon properties instead of changing them to other, I don't recommend replacing one property with another at higher tiers, but it's up to you if you want to do so. For example, replacing the Damage II property with the Vampiric III property when evolving to tier 4. A reason for replacing properties could be related with the item background story or a very particular event, such as discovering that the item contains the soul of an evil creature, replacing the "good-aligned" properties when the soul is awakened, like replacing the Beacon I property to a Damage I property (necrotic) for a weapon. Alternatively, you can avoid taking one property at the beginning rarity, and then take a rarer property at higher tiers. For example, when creating an armor, you only choose the Ability Increase I property and leave the second property empty at tier 2. Then, when the armor evolves to tier 3, you upgrade the Ability Increase to II and you also pick the Armor I for the second property. 81

Triggering Event Example A 3rd level character is rewarded with Igni, a longsword used by his family for generations to defend the city against evil. Since he is a 3rd level character, the weapon is at tier 1, so it's just a basic longsword with a nice name, a background history, and the Guardian minor property (for now). The character continues its adventures using the longsword, and after some adventures he reaches level 5. In this moment, his father tells him that the longsword has special abilities, and the character needs to prove himself worthy to unleash those abilities. For this, he must destroy an old fire elemental that attacked the city years ago. In this case, the character has the first requirement completed (reach level 5 to evolve the weapon to tier 2), but the weapon will not evolve until the character kills the fire elemental mentioned by his father. After reaching 6th level, the character decides to enter the elemental lair and fight with the creature, and at the moment he destroys the elemental, the essence of the creature is drained by the longsword, and with that the weapon evolves to tier 2, giving the weapon a +1 to attack and damage and an extra +1d6 fire damage on a hit. Evolving Weapon Example Igni (Tier 1) Weapon (longsword), Common (requires attunement) Same stats as the longsword found in the Player's Handbook, plus the beacon I minor property (bonus action to cause the item to shed bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet, or to extinguish the light.) Igni is forged from Feverus steel, granting an extra 1d6 (nonmagical) fire damage on strike. Igni (Tier 2) Weapon (longsword), Common (requires attunement) You gain a +1 on attack and damage rolls made with this weapon. When you hit with an attack using this weapon, the target takes an additional 1d6 fire damage. Igni (Tier 3) Weapon (longsword), Uncommon (requires attunement) Increase the bonus to attack and damage rolls to a +2 Igni (Tier 4) Weapon (longsword), Rare (requires attunement) Increase the additional damage to 1d8 fire damage. As an action, you can now cast the firebolt cantrip at will - at your level, using your melee attack as the spell attack. (Increases by 1d10 at 5th, 11th, 17th, 23rd, and 29th level) Igni, Soul of the Ember (Tier 5) Weapon (longsword), Very Rare (requires attunement) Increase the additional damage to 1d10 fire damage As an action, you can now cast the firebolt cantrip at will - at your level, using your melee attack as the spell attack. And as a reaction, you can cast hellish rebuke at 1st level (DC 13). Igni, Flame of Heroes (Tier 6) Weapon (longsword), Legendary (requires attunement) Increase the bonus to attack and damage rolls to a +3 Increase the additional damage to 1d12 fire damage. Igni, Fire of the Gods (Tier 7) Weapon (longsword), Mythical (requires attunement) Increase the bonus to attack and damage rolls to a +4 Increase the additional damage to 2d6 fire damage. As an action, you can now cast the firebolt cantrip at will - at your level, using your melee attack as the spell attack. And as a reaction, you can cast hellish rebuke at 2nd level (DC 15). As an Action, you can can Aganazzar's Scorcher at 2nd level (DC 15). Igni, The Grand Conflagration (Artifact) Weapon (longsword), Mythical (requires attunement) Having tasted the essence of fire elementals, the blood of pit fiends, and the ichor of a dark god - blessed by the ancestors and reforged into a new form: Igni has now transformed into the epitome of fiery wrath. Increase the bonus to attack and damage rolls to a +5 As an action, you can now cast the firebolt cantrip at will - at your level, using your melee attack as the spell attack. And as a reaction, you can cast Hellish Rebuke at 3rd level (DC 17). As an Action, you can can Aganazzar's Scorcher at 3rd level (DC 17). And finally, as an action, you can cast Fireball at 3rd level (DC 17). As a bonus action Igni sheds bright light in a 80-foot radius and dim light for an additional 80 feet, or to extinguish the light. At the DM's approval, Igni has gained the "Defense III" property - granting immunity to fire damage. As per the "Artifacts" section - Igni now gains beneficial and detrimental properties: Minor beneficial property: While attuned to Igni, you gain a +1 bonus to AC. Major beneficial property: While attuned to Igni, your walking speed increases by 10 feet. Minor detrimental property: While attuned to Igni, your complexion takes on the appearance of cracked and scorched skin, with embers dancing between the cracks. Major detrimental property: Creatures with a CR of 0, as well as plants that aren't creatures, drop to 0 hit points and are lit aflame when within 10 feet of Igni. 82
