Taron's Extremely Fancy Hat is a personal favorite of mine because it comes straight out of a campaign that I DM! During the party's first encounter they needed to cross a hectic bazaar to reach their destination. I used this setting to introduce the concept of skill checks to the players; to make progress they needed to succeed on avoiding distractions by using their set of abilities and rolling high enough. Taron, the party's dragonborn fighter, unfortunately failed on one of these checks and was drawn in to the stall of a particularly charismatic vendor. After some bartering, Taron was now in possession of quite the charming headpiece as well as a significantly lighter coin purse. The effects are simple and powerful but balanced by the lack of the attunement requirement meaning that anyone currently in possession of the item is granted its boons. So keep a tight grip on it or risk, after a successful slight of hand check, having its power used on you!

Once again, thank you for stopping by. Adding a little magic to one's life may be just what they need to keep on going.
