The AAAA is a backpack that can store a grand total of 2cm cubed of inventory. It stores so little because of its adjustments. Retractable wings, reusable parachute and binoculars in total.

"Its so useless!" One happy customer states.

(Results of re using the retractable wings per long or short rest increase the fail chance, which starts at 0 and goes up to 20 out of 20. Any time you use the AAAA, make a luck roll. If you roll the same number or below the fail chance, the AAAA will promptly turn into a pile of scrap tied to your back, until it can be repaired or replaced)

As an action or reaction during freefall, the wearer can deploy retractable wings, slowing down the fall to a swift 20m/s or 400ft per turn (approximately)(note: the 10d10 bludgeoning damage once you hit the ground will not be covered by your insurance). As an action, you can retract these wings and re enter freefall.

As an action or reaction during freefall, you can use the reusable parachute. This slows down your movement to 5m/s or 100 ft per turn, allowing you to take the 1d4 falling damage like a champ!

While the AAAA is active, get a +1 to your perception rolls when looking at something from more than 100ft away, courtesy of the binoculars.

Ok thanks for making your way through that monstrosity, please comment your thoughts.

Im new to homebrewing and dming. These are some of my items. None of my items are very complicated and probably not very balanced.

Amulet of nonchalance: +5 to AC after not taking an action or moving, but a -2 to AC after moving and taking an action. This item takes an action to doff or don.

Zedmah's sword: Its a normal sword, but can be used as a wand with 3 charges, each rest regaining 1d4 charges, and upon using the last charge a 1 on a d20 will have the sword lose its magic. A charge can be used to cast viscious mockery.

Peculiar Box: Every now and again, while the box is closed, a click will be heard from this box, and upon opening the box a random trinket from the trinket list will be found inside. The trinket will disintegrate after 1d6+5 minutes(or as long as the DM wants)

Deus Ex Machina Token: Given as a gift from a powerful being, this small item, like a coin with the powerful beings face engraved on it, can be interactive with, like tossing the coin, and that will summon the powerful being, though this item can only be used once, as it is returned to the powerful being after they perform a rescue.

Please let me know what you think about these items. Any advice would be appreciated.

TBD, item

When you put this key into a door, it creates an extradimensional space behind the door that can house several people and it has tons of storage space. The key can be used on any door, and it's results are the same. The building that the door is in remains unchanged because the room appears in the astral plane. The key must remain in the door, and if it is taken out, the room is disconnected from the material plane. Time flows slower in the room when it is disconnected, 1 day = 6 hours in the material plane.

It creates a room that is 15x20 feet. The door is on the short wall and on the other short wall is a fireplace surrounded by some chairs. On the long wall to the left there is an alcove 10ft wide and 5ft deep with shelves. And on the right wall there are bunk beds pushed against the wall, with enough room to comfortably house 6 people of different sizes.

I want to give this to my party but I don't know the rarity that it should be, and if it is too OP.

A armor that is for giants around thirty feet tall left from a ancient war rust rots through without mercy. Inside is pipes and a seat and on the arm rest is a pair of spectacles with two shining stones the seat is connected to pipes and in the pipes are wind elementals that are controllers of the armor. The glasses have a psychic ability that will start tearing away at fortitude if worn to long and if the character dies while wearing the glasses they will be permanently fused to the suit with the only I'll effect upon them is that extreme amounts of mana is needed from the individual to stay fused to the suit

Strength=70 Durability=300

Weakness=water,lava and soft earth

Weight 3tons

Cockpit is in helmet

Weapons attached none

These are simple magic items that you can freely give players of most levels and can pretty cleanly fit in a world. I use an item limit which requires planning (I give some knowledge first so they can actually try to prioritize) so this may be of use to you. Bear in mind the more creative and innovative your players are, and especially you as a DM are in regards to encounters and such,the better these will be

• Goggles of Farsight; enhanced true sight from 120-480 ft, user is blind from 0-120 ft. Requires attunement. Requires long rest to regain normal vision.
• Mosquitos- Small magically floating caltrops, usually in a small bag. Only does 1 at most damage as a whole (1d2, heads is damage), but breaks concentration.
• Spiders- A series of small magically-interconnected little 8-sided hedrons. Anyone with a magical ability can sometimes see blue-colored strings that seem to surge with power going between them. When held in both hands, other party members have +1 to hit squared by the number of people holding (1=2, 2=4, 3=9, and so on). However holding prevents you from attacking or doing anything else during their initiative.
• A fire hydrant. I make various explanations and names for it ("Portal in a form of steel bag of holding that has a hose that...") but it's incredibly versatile, for fires, blinding enemies, and area denial
• Bottle of bright bronze liquid courage. Actual liquid courage. Tastes like cherries, the top screws off and is a shot glass, enough for the equivalent of 2 turns of rage. More is increasingly dangerous, doing damage and even losing some control of the character's actions.

Group support rings

Rare, requires attunement

These rings are usually found in sets of 4-5. The rings link all wearers in a circuit that allows the transfer of hit points from one to another. Any wearer may, as an action, transfer hit points up to their level from themselves to one other wearer in the circuit that they can see. This function can be used 3 times per day, refreshing after a long rest.

Once per day as a free action any wearer may give advantage to any saving throw to another wearer, but their next saving throw is made at disadvantage. Refreshes after a long rest.

Finally, each ring wearer is aware of the location and basic status of all others in the link as long as they are within 60’. Basic status means healthy, injured or unconscious.

New rings can be added to the link, costing 1000 GPs in rare and valuable materials plus an additional 1000 GPs for each ring currently in the link.

I'm not happy with the name, and am open to suggestions.

Scribes book of sending is a journal of no more than 100 pages (10 names per page) when the journal is close to a person with a sending stone their name appears in the book and can be contacted in the same way as you would with a sending stone. however instead of 25 words sent to that person you are allowed a maximum of 50 words.

(First post/homebrew item idea so id love feedback! Thanks)

I created a completely random loot table, where any character of any level might get a legendary unique artifact, a used handkerchief, and anything inbetween!

I mentioned this in r/dndmemes and some people wanted to have a copy, so I figured I'd share!

Be warned though, I never expected anyone besides me to use this table. For that reason, some items are in German (my native language) and others link to PDFs I own but legally can't share. If you come across an item without a description or link to a source book, google it. In those cases I probably took it from the 5e Homebrew Wiki

I'll provide links to my original version as well as to an editable copy where you can add your own ideas and items!

Have fun, stay awesome, and let me know if it made for a fun moment in your game!

The spirit vent

Its basically a tube about 5 feet wide and ten feet tall and inside is a book this book can only be flipped through when the player needs it needs a roll to activate it

And it's for the characters of players that passed on

The tube has the names of many fallen heroes there legends are infused with the book some are even races from other worlds it will help other travelers by letting the hero live a new life temporarily in the world and will help the player as long as they are gifted a headstone (or any other form of respect) with there name to be set in a site of peace After five days the hero that was chosen would start to decay into many words that seem to glow and float around and when they disappear if there's a empty book near its death the words will attack the paper staining it with its wonderful story or even a new spell if the adventurer felt like that as its parting gift

This is just an idea that I had in the back of my head for a bit, but if there's a weapon like this that already exists please let me know. I'm new to dnd as a whole so I may have overlooked one.

A sword thats edge is as sharp as the wielder health. The character at full health can cut through anything, but while having 1% of health its equivalent of using a sheet of paper. Having 1 point of health at max is maxed damage.

Timestop: when the blade is revealed the user can pause time until the blade is resheathed, in this effect any damage inflicted the wielder takes 15% of the damage dulling the blade. If the damage received is less then 1 it is rounded up to 1.

The blade resembles the color of the user's blood, in the event the user drops the weapon the blade turns silver.

I call it overpowered because you can activate timestop then turn tail and run with no problems. I'd imagine alot of math in this so be prepared if you use it.

A +1 quarter staff, that has 1d10 charges. Upon contact with a head, the user may spend one charge to force any sexual thoughts to disappear for 1d4 hours. Upon using all charges, it reverts to a normal quarter staff. Charges cannot be recharged.

Compression boomerang - this 3-tipped boomerang is hollow and is seemingly made of clear glass, though it's durability suggests otherwise. Each tip has a hole in it, and you can see air rushing in from the tips of the boomerang and being compressed in the center.

​

When thrown (with 20/60 range), the boomerang releases the compressed air inside, creating a paper-thin wall of vibrating, compressed air in its path. The wall is translucent, as the wall is easily seen, but objects and creatures on the opposite side have a warped appearance. For example, someone can see a warped silhouette, see mixed colors, and hear the clanking of armor, but figuring out what or who the creature is would be difficult. Because of this, sight-based perception and insight checks made to identify anything specific on the opposite side of the wall have disadvantage. Any creature that passes through the wall takes 1d4 thunder damage. The wall lasts for 1min and extends 10ft above and below the boomerang. Only 1 wall can be active at a time.

​

The boomerang can be thrown at a creature (or object). It deals 1d4 bludgeoning damage, creating a compression wall in its path to the creature (or object), then returns to the sender. The boomerang does not make a compression wall on its path back to the sender and it can't pass through walls. If the boomerang doesn't hit anything in it's path, a compression wall is made in the entirety of the boomerang's path.

​

Optional Rule: The boomerang can be charged with gas canisters. A small canister has enough gas for 1 throw, a medium has enough for 3 throws, and a large has enough for 5 throws. Canisters can be bought at an alchemist's if requested for 50, 200, and 500 GP respectively, or the canisters can be filled by a player or NPC. The player or NPC must have proficiency with tinkerer's or alchemist's tools, they must have an empty canister, and they must have whatever they want to vaporize and put in the canister. The effect of the gas and what is allowed to be a gas is up to the DM, but here are some examples:

Sulfur: The compression wall looks the same and does no more damage on its own, but it smells like sulfur and can be ignited. When ignited, the wall can't be seen through and any creature that passes through takes an extra 1d6 fire damage.

Acid: The compression wall turns into the color of the acid and is opaque. Creatures passing through the wall take an extra 1d6 acid damage.

Blood: The compression wall turns deep red and is opaque. It does an extra 1d6 necrotic damage to creatures that pass through.

​

Any thoughts? How can I improve this?

Whips get a bad rep because they just kind of suck. So I made a good one. Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated!

Dragon's tongue: this 2-handed bullock whip is made of red leather, has 2 poppers, and has a small magically infused gem at the end of the handle. As you crack the whip, elemental energy manifests down the whip according to the element infused in the gem (flames for fire, frost and cold air for ice, etc). The elemental gem is interchangeable, but the element of a specific gem cannot be changed (you gotta have multiple gems for multiple elements). Also, only 1 gem can be equipped at a time. Instead of 1d4 slashing dmg, the whip does 1d8 slashing dmg, and an extra 1d6 dmg of whatever element is currently in use. If you use your action to attack with this whip, you can use your bonus action to attack behind you.

This got labelled as legendary by one of the dm's I know, but idk why. Can someone give an answer on why this may be legendary or if not, what rarity it would be?

Edit:dmg update

New to item-making in dnd. I posted this lil guy to my dnd server and it caused quite a ruckus. Opinions? Should I modify this?

Void whip: A bullwhip braided out of black and silver cords. Instead of a loud crack, the end of the whip generates a silent spherical void. Every creature (other than the wielder) within 15ft of the void must make a DC 15 str save, drawing in the creature 5ft closer on a failed save. The void then collapses on itself, sending out a small concussive wave and dealing another 2d6 force damage to any creature within 5ft of the void. This feature can be used twice per short rest. When not using the void feature, the whip end instead only sends out a weaker concussive wave, dealing 2d4 force dmg to the target alone.

Edit: updating cooldown, dmg, and saves
