In this video, we'll be going over some of the very rare, but weird, magical items you can find in DnD5e. Just like with the other magic item rarities, we will be covering items which either change how certain rules normally function, or just have wacky effects that you normally don't see, while also trying to figure out fun and unique ways these items might be used inside the campaign.

My party found a mirror of life trapping and we took it. Later on we got invited to an auction and the top item was stolen from someone who meant dearly to one of our player characters. Naturally the item was way out of our price range so we needed to find a way to steal it and the auction house had all the items stored in a vault. We came up with the idea to sell the mirror and hid the fact it was a magical item to make it way more affordable and less likely that someone would want to buy it. We had an NPC hide in the mirror and we put magic mouth onto the mirror with the command word to release the NPC. The magic mouth activation was getting pecked by my familiar. I would summon my familiar on the other side of the wall (find familiar doesn't specify that it needs to be line of sight) and activate the mirror. NPC would then steal the top item and go back into the mirror and we would buy the mirror. The plan had a few hiccups, but we managed to enact it pretty successfully.
Very clever. Not very heroic. I see one point of error. Once the top item is found missing, most likely the next morning, wouldn't they cast detect magic to see if it was magicked away? The mirror is a powerful magical item. Seeing how the mirror acts as an imprisonment spell, it would radiate brightly with abjuration magic. The auction's records would indicate the discrepancy and a lawful wizard would notify the authorities, maybe after casting identify on it. These are rich people after all. House wizards, on-call wizards, and so on would be expected. A more self-serving wizard might join the auction and try to outbid the party in an attempt to get such a powerful mirror for themselves. And then find out about the stolen item after securing the mirror in their home/workshop/tower.
@@ericpeterson8732 To be honest, our dm probably let us off easy because they really enjoyed our plan, but I can give a bit more detail of what happened. The mirror was snuck into last minute with forged documents. The top item was discovered stolen while the auction was already happening. While there were top mages, detect magic does only have 30 ft range so you probably couldn't see the magic. Once the item was discovered missing though, the staff brought out these demon dogs (can't remember if they were homebrew) that could sniff out magic. The dogs caused frighten condition to a lot of people and that caused even bigger panic and the NPC that we were working for had a panic attack and we used that as an excuse to get her out of the place. We took the mirror with us and gave a glare indicating "We don't want to associate with you any further" to the person running the auction and he begrudgingly allowed us to leave.
What a stretch⊠dm must have been new or really just wanted to let you guys âhave itâ. Idk how a competent auction house would let any of that happen lol
@@ozylocz4078 Maybe so, but our dm really likes to reward us for creative thinking even when it's a stretch. With so many high leveled npc's, buying the item or fighting everyone is out of the question, and if our dm decides to nitpick everything about our plan, then nothing we do would probably work. The dm did put obstacles in our way to make it more challenging, but they weren't going to do everything in their power to make us fail. Their main priority is for us to have fun.

The best use of a bag of devouring is bait to hunt pickpockets XD
Devious.
_Furious scribbling_
But I'm the pickpocketđą
I have heard an idea of attacking with it (if you manage to stuck enemy inside and hold them there for a round, they are done) and of using it as a latrine (not sure if it's gonna be pissed off by it and if it can do anything about it
@@nabra97 we used one as a garbage disposal for experimental potions. I donât even want to imagine the other side XD
Liked for âliterally throw handsâ lmao đ
Fun Fact about the Heartstone: Lorewise, using it for good is suppose to damage it slowly.
I used the arcane prop arm for my warforgred Paladin.
Along with Eldridch blast and boots of flying, i made a Gundam
My party found a Mirror of Life Trapping that was also a reskinned Crystal Ball, depending on how you turned it and what command word you used. Unfortunately, they never felt like seeing what it does, despite the command words literally being engraved into the rim. Now it belongs to a Devkarin Lich statblock that *does* know what it is, because it tried to activate itself while in her presence, and it scared her, so they gave it to her to show that they genuinely didn't mean her any harm. ***Players.***
It only holds 5 people due to it being a smaller mirror, and the cult they took it from had already trapped four people inside of varying degrees of good and helpful while trying to figure out what its intended use was; a Medusa, a Hobgoblin Warlord, a level 10 Fighter (neutral evil), and a Druid of the Old Ways statblock (neutral good). Ms. Semi-lich isn't going to let them out anytime soon, but it's funny how I can play the party deliberately giving up the item I intended to have them use to clear out a place to still be an eventuality that a villain found to be a positive outcome.
The mirror and the bag of devouring sounds like a horror film I watched where anyone who wrongs the antique shop dealer ends up horribly cursed like being possessed by an evil elemental and harming those around you or lying about the value of a mirror and tricking the antique shop dealer and end up inside the mirror, or stealing an emblem and ending up with a voodoo doll on a wedding cake that you use by accident that kills you splitting your head in two and your son becoming adopted by the magical girl and her father to live with them happily, or straight up robbing the antique shop dealer at gunpoint with his own guns but you couldn't harm the antique shop dealer and end up in an iron maiden. Anyone who gets the reference, please tell me the movie as I forgot it's name, it has a cursed door that wants a blood sacrifice to keep its personal plane of existence alive but ends up destroyed and the husband and wife are physically well off as he's the only one who didn't screw the antique shop dealer and reasonably bartered with him.
I found it. Itâs called âFrom Beyond the Grave.â
@@dreadnaughtswake thanks
I just found your channel a few videos ago (the CR creatue video) and I love your content! You take so much time to explain *why* e.g. a creature is strong or complicated and not just say that it is. I highly appreciate that!
Ur voice is so recognizable hiru hahah donât know how this one got recommended for me
Some of these would be great to build an entire character around if you and your DM are willing to work together on it.
Something I'm curious about... If you put a Bag of Holding into a Bag of Devouring, or vice versa, or, a Bag of Devouring into a Bag of Devouring, would you get the same effect of putting a Bag of Holding into another Bag of Holding/Handy Haversack/Portable Hole, since it is going into a creature in the other extradimensional space, not into the space itself? Or, if the effect did activate, would it kill the creature, giving you XP, and, possibly, anything that had been put into the creature appearing with you?

A bag of devouring is incredibly powerful with a polymorph. turn someone into a rabbit and put them in the bag
Wasn't there a clock(or compass or something) that has multiple parts to it each of which are powerful magically items in their own right, but when in the clock they count as one, or was that a different system?
Yeah, I think Orrey of the wanderer.
Edit: Orrery Of The Wanderer and it's an Artifacts
@@jdizzy192 Okay, didn't remember the rarity of it
Orrey of the wanderer is on the legendary artifacts video I believe
Warforged keeper of the Mirror
Lol, âhide evidence in the bagâ. Nice way of saying âdispose of the bodyâ there.
Is it murder if you put a gold coin in the bag and invite someone to take it? Is it if you shove�
UyU
