Robes of the Variable Boon (d4)
Item Type: Wondrous Item (Robes)
Rarity: Uncommon
Attunement: Requires attunement
These robes, often bestowed as a significant token or discovered as a minor treasure, are subtly enchanted. Their true value lies in a versatile magical property determined daily by chance, reflecting the "d4" aspect of their nature – a gift that changes with fortune.
Daily Random Property:
Upon completing a long rest, the attuned wearer rolls a four-sided die (d4). The result determines the specific magical benefit the robes provide for the next 24 hours, or until the wearer completes their next long rest.
- 1. Ephemeral Shield: The wearer gains 5 temporary hit points. These temporary hit points are lost if not expended before the next long rest.
- 2. Heightened Alertness: The wearer gains advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks.
- 3. Enhanced Mobility: The wearer's base walking speed increases by 5 feet.
- 4. Minor Magical Utility: The wearer can cast the Mage Hand cantrip at will. If the wearer already knows this cantrip, its range is doubled when cast using this benefit. The spellcasting ability for this cantrip is Intelligence (unless the wearer has a class feature that specifies a different ability for similar magical effects).
The "gift" of these robes is their adaptability, providing a small but potentially crucial advantage that shifts with each new day, making them a practical item for adventurers facing unpredictable challenges.
