@richyofthevillagers2 жыл бұрын
Personally I kind of see the sword (minus the whole 50-100 damage thing) pretty interesting, and just a little different. The idea that disintegration is always just "the entire item poofs into dust" always bugged me. What law of even magic determines what one item is? A magic effect can't discern what a sentient being considers a single whole object and that really has always made me believe that the whole disintegration thing would have to be more direct. I feel like the sword, specifically the blade, would essentially de-atomize anything it comes in contact with, slicing through mundane materials and leaving no displaced debris in its place, but only where it came in contact with. So a stealth would be completely useless, but you could set it down, simply you'd have to be careful. The blade guard doesn't have the same effect like the rest of the hilt (or else the wielder just loses their hand when picking it up) and just slices a sword shaped hole in the dirt when put down. Dangerous? Obviously. Completely unmanageable? I honestly don't think so. I also like the idea that it's only mundane materials, so magic items and creatures, or even spell effects could nullify its effect. Thank you for coming to my TED talk about a random magic item.

Idea to improve the Horrific Infinity Slayer: It's actually a cursed greatsword. If it's swung, and hits an object, the wielder is shown a very convincing illusion of it disintegrating, that they believe is real, but nobody else sees it. This including any people they hit, who are now imperceptible to the wielder, but very confused as to why the wielder believes they've won after one hit. If it's dropped, the wielder must make a wisdom saving throw. If they fail, they believe the planet has disintegrated, and that they're floating in space. This can be reversed if the sword is taken away, and the former wielder is firmly slapped in the face. However, whomever took the sword away is now the new wielder, and forgets that everything it does is an illusion.

I made a homebrew item once that I shared with my friends. I call it the Bag of Small Comforts. It appears as a smaller bag of holding. Up to four times per day, the owner can reach into the bag, and will find an item that is comforting to have, but not incredibly useful. Like if you're hungry, you'll find a small wedge of incredibly tasty cheese.... That isn't very filling. Or if you're in a dark cave, it'll give you a candle.... But no way to light it. You can use the items any way you want, but they vanish either at will or an hour after leaving the bag. My kobold barbarian bought it for 20gp when the shady guy in the alley told her it would give her "anything she wants" and she looked inside to find a cool bug. On first use in the marketplace after buying it, it gave her a mundane copy of the same bag. Not caring for money and having an obsession with magic items, she was incredibly pleased with her purchase.

As a relative D&D noob, let's see what I can come up with off the top of my head. Memory Rings. Without overdoing the flavor text, they're essentially rings that have been worn by people and remember the way they swung a weapon, tinkered with a tool or strummed an instrument and so if you attune to and wear one, the ring gives you proficiency, but only with that specific weapon type, tool or instrument. Find one on the ground and you can roll some dice to see what proficiency it has or DM can decide. Could be for sale and the merchant already knows what it gives. Good luck getting longsword proficiency from some hero and not the banjo playing skills of a swamp hillbilly.

Basically a really powerful necromancer used his might to summon undead from a massive war they were fighting, and other mages were like "Nope, f*ck this shit" and banished them all to the astral plane. Since Intelligence is used to move in the astral plane, all these undead stuck together unable to move, and it's home to high level necromancers throughout the years.

Almost any character would be to tell by the smell that its there, like it would only be a roll of like 3 required to notice it. Its just a “fuck it lets try it” option. The only real use would be either 1 against any enemy without a functioning nose or extremely low intelligence or 2 use a strength check and shove it down their throat physically.

The anime ring one sounds really interesting to use as a DM, you just need to tweak it a little to the prefered flavor of the table. You can basically make a zombie+succubus type scenario in a town where there are only beautiful women that flirt at anyone that visits, with the intent to infect them and spread the "infection". Make the party realize that something is amiss and make them investigate to find about the cursed ring and add a master ring that when destroyed frees everyone that was turned so they can solve the problem. If any party member is infected, give them a timer, slowly giving them the curse in a obvious way so they feel the need to solve the issue quickly.

To get the same mass as Earth, you would need about 478 sextillion skeletons (4.78×10²³). Since Earth is ~2.98 times as dense as bone, the skeleton planet would be 9168km in radius, and would have a surface gravity of 4.74m/s² (48% Earth gravity). To get 1g at the surface, you would need 4.22 septillion skeletons (4.22*10²⁴), a planet with 8.8 times the mass of Earth, and a radius of 18,956km (2.97 times Earth). 43,010,752,700,000,000,000 Skeletons (43 quintillion, 43*10¹⁹), would be just 0.01% the mass of earth, with 2% the surface gravity, comparable to Ceres. Not enough to clear it's orbit, but enough to round out into a nice bony sphere.

@@balintkeszthelyi1293 -- I did not take compression into account, no. (Forgot to mention that, oops) The radius is calculated from only the mass assuming a constant density of 1.85g/cm³ and that the skeletons crush solid easily. If that average density rose to, say, 2.50g/cm³, the 1 earth mass planet would be 8292km to the center, and have 5.8m/s² at the surface (0.59g). The 1g planet would be 14,040km in radius, 4.85 Earths in mass, and 2.32 septillion skelies strong (2.32*10²⁴, only 55% the uncompressed version!). I have no basis for 2.50g/cm³ (not a lot of people think about the behaviour of bone at hundreds of gigapascals), but it's neatly between the ~1.85g/cm³ of intended use bone, and Earth's ~5.51g/cm³. That's probably not too far off, seeing as calcium and phosphorus are 1.55g/cm³ and 1.82g/cm³, while diamond is ~3.52g/cm³. It would probably change over time as the organic components ferment, then either rise to the surface with the water, or sink and become diamonds, and the released heat might drive bone slurry volcanoes full of diamonds.

It does not aim for you or redirect the arrows shot however. If you arm it with an arrow, the bow will refuse you to let go of it for as long has you have the string drawn, until you are holding the string and is aiming the bow at exactly the moment and spot in order for the shot to be 100% a sure hit. It does the same damage as a standard longbow. Cursed? The item has earned itself a track record of never ever being fired, by whoever happens to own it.

1:25 Lmao, this is the most accurate depiction of homebrew creation I've ever heard. My last DM forced us to use dndbeyond and I personally attached to roll20 for its simplicity. I wanted to homebrew my subclass a little and my dm allowed it but boy was it difficult to add the simplest stuff as a homebrew... Oh, and yeah, if you change your homebrew, anyone who used it will continue to use the old version of it... They need to readd it in order to use the updated version...

Kawaii (zombie/vampire) could be an interesting challenge with a succubus boss, but you'd have to up their intelligence to keep it interesting and seem calculated; the OP sword is an easy fix, just make it so powerful that it damages itself with each use, then send them on a tarrasque hunt when you need to end a campaign quickly or as a side quest when too many people can't make it

I once developed a cursed cloak for my players called the Cloak of Nine Lives. It was a black cloak with a silver clasp shaped like a cat. It required attunement and while attuned you automatically succeeded on acrobatics checks to reduce fall damage as you would always land on your feet. It had nine charges which could be expended to automatically stabilize yourself an return to 1hp if unconscious on your turn. Upon using the last charge the curse would take effect and turn the character into a cat as the cloak was absorbed into them.

My favorite homebrew item I've made is something I've called a Ring of Fat which when attuned by someone of medium size and has flesh, it gives the user resistance to bludgeoning, fire, and cold damage however the user gains 400-800 lbs (weight gain varys depending on race and size). Once the item is unattuned all weight gained from the ring reverses but leaves stretch marks on the former wearer. I made it out of curiosity to see it if one of my min max players would buy it. It took them 10 minutes of deliberating but in the end they did not buy it.

For that Horrific Infinity Slaying Sword or whatever it would be hilarious to leave the damage but make it only hit when you roll a nat 20. I wonder how many players would die trying to use that thing in a boss fight and doing nothing for many many turns in a row.

Wouldn't be that hard. The whole party would form an attack meta around granting the sword wielder advantage, so then he has a 10% chance to crit. A fighter with multi attack and a wizard casting haste on him would instagib just about anything in only a few rounds, statistically speaking.

Interesting thing about the necronomicon; It does not say that you control the summoned undead, and it was made to allow the dead to outnumber the living. Maybe it's a trap. An overeager living wizard finds it and is of course thrilled at the prospect of a million litch minions. Then, they instantly turn on him and join the ranks of the undead, bolstering them. It's the best wizard trap ever; incredible power, but some fine print.

Okay, balancing for the Necronomicon: after meditating with the book for an hour, you can touch any corpse and turn it into an undead creature under your control for as long as you are attuned to the book. However, your body ages a number of years equal to the the CR of the undead chosen. Also, the curse could be that at the start of each dawn while attuned, if your alignment is neutral or good, you roll a DC 15 Insight (Wis) check, and upon a failed save a good attuned player becomes neutral, and a neutral player becomes evil and upon the following dawn they lose adjency and become fully controlled by the Necronomicon. The item seems like something you wouldn't want underpowered, but would serve better as a plot device than a regular solution, so having it slowly corrupt the user adds an expiration date to what could otherwise still be an immensely powerful item in the hands of race that has a substancial lifespan, while being something obviously sought after by liches.

Dude, the Anime Girl Ring is fantastic. This would be a great magic item for a joke campaign where the world is taken over by anime girls as though it were a zombie apocalypse. The creator of this magic item probably set the kiss time to six seconds because that's one full round, so the player or npc has one round to try to end the grapple before they're "infected." I may have to use this for a one shot with my friends.

Magic Item Idea; Staff of Fish Summoning The Staff of Fish Summoning is an ornate, marbly white-and-blue staff with a statue of the head of a fish on top. This staff has 11 charges, which reset when the staff touches water. When used, the staff expends one charge, and summons a single bass, which appears in a visible, random, unoccupied space within 30ft of the user. Every time the staff is used, it summons the same bass named Terry. If Terry dies, the staff will instead summon his corpse.

back in a homebrew campaign years and years ago, my character made a weapon called the infinite sheath +4. looked like a silver broadsword handle with a 6 inch sheath on it. in order to equip the weapon, you must first roll a throw check to see how far you can throw the sheath. this is the length of the weapon until sheathed again. weapon has reach. deals 3d8+str. a creature can grab the sheath as a standard action and move further or closer to the wielder to lengthen or shorten the weapon. if the creature holding the sheath were to move adjacent to the wielder, then the weapon is re-sheathed and the wielder must throw the sheath again before attacking with it. the wielder has a couple options to resheath the weapon. by holding the point against an object, creature, or wall, the wielder can move to the sheath, or raise the tip into the air, where the sheath falls at normal fall speeds until closed.

@@sanddry738 Sorry, I misread the spell. A level 20 wizard can animate 83 zombies a day. (3*1+3*3+3*5+2*7+2*9+1*11+1*13) I thought it was only you could restore control over extra zombies with higher spell slots, but you can also summon extra zombies (+2 per each spell level above 3). This really kind of makes the book as you modified it seem worse. At least in prior editions, animate dead required 25 gp per hd of undead raised, meaning you'd be blowing 6225 gp to conjure 83 zombies. Of course, zombies in 3.5e and 5e are different. 5e ordinary zombies have 3 hit dice, but they're d8s, whereas in 3.5e, a zombie has twice the hit dice of whatever was resurrected as one, and they're d12s. Also, while 5e requires you cast animate dead again to keep control of zombies, 3.5e let's you flat out control 4*caster level HD of zombies, so if we're going standard ordinary human zombies, your 5e wizard can end up controlling 128 zombies, using all of their spell slots L3 and up. In contrast, a 3.5e L20 wizard can control 40 zombies, but with all their spell slots free to use. On the other hand, the dread necromancer class lets them do (4+CHA MOD)*caster level HD instead, and the True Necromancer prestige class lets you get bonus CL for the purposes of calculating undead control HD. This lets a L34 char control 532 HD of undead, or 266 zombies. Then if we add items, the rod of undead mastery doubles the HD of undead you can control to 1064, or 512 zombies. There are also other items one can stack on this for another 200~ HD of undead under your control. I'm on a tangent. The point is, any reasonably powerful spellcaster can summon large numbers of zombies anyway, so as long as they aren't trying to do it all at once to gotcha somebody, the book you're suggesting isn't actually that powerful an item at all in terms of the threat it poses compared to just ordinary spellcasters.

@@seigeengine I’m not as well versed on previous editions so that’s fun to learn about! I suppose my entire point is to see how the concept could potentially be applied. Yeah giving unlimited control would help free up spell slots but sort of lack luster. Of course I feel potentially adding other things related to evil May just make it a bargain bin Book of Vile Darkness. Then again maybe that’d work… regardless, yeah the item would definitely need more “umph” if it’s supposed to be artifact level.

I have a few ideas to fix the Necronomicon - first, shorten the name to just "The Necronomicon." Secondly, fix the grammar and adjust the backstory; to get the book, you need to defeat a powerful Lich-type enemy that will be using the book against you (this enemy can use the book a total of 3 times during the fight, can't summon enemies over Greater, and will drop it once slain). Keep the need to attune to the book via meditating (during a Long Rest) before you can use it. Non-Sorceror and Wizard classes need to make and succeed a Will save if they are to attempt this, otherwise the book won't be attuned after the meditation. The curse makes it so that you can't let go of the book until you use it - and you need to hold the book in order to use it. The curse will only come into effect once the character using the book has attuned it. Once a day, excluding the first day, you need to make a saving throw or take 1d6 Necrotic damage, +one 1d4 for every day that you have the book in your hand and haven't used it yet. The only way the cursed book can be let go is if the hand holding it is severed from the one holding it, if the character holding it is killed, or if another character manages to Nat 20 dispel magic or Nat 20 lift curse. The book can only be used once per day, and will need to be re-attuned before it can be used again. Necromancer, Vampire and Undead characters can use the book twice at level 10 and thrice at level 20 before needing to re-attune it. The curse will immediately be lifted once all the book's available charges have been used. Non-Sorceror and Wizard characters will immediately drop the book on the ground, and if they don't want to drop the book they will need to make a reflex save with disadvantage to keep hold of it. The book allows the wielder to summon a small horde of undead, with the number of undead summoned equal to a specified dice roll. The caster also needs to specify what level of undead is being summoned. Lesser Undead = 1d20, Common Undead = 2d6, Greater Undead = 1d8, and Liches/Demi-Liches (and any other kind of undead around that level of power) = 1d4. The caster must also make a Will save for every individual undead above Lesser being summoned in order to control them, and will need to either roll a Nat 20 or a total of 20 (no more, no less) to control Liches/Demi-Liches (and anything around that level of power).
