#magic amulet

I feel, as though, I may be the best person to have the cursed amulet and like… what’s a curse really?

"That's it loser, put that powerful imagination of yours to good use. So long as you're wearing that amulet, all your fantasies about me will continue to come true. Even the fantasies you don't consciously want to have.

A magic item for use in Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition tabletop role-playing game. This is a homebrew magic item created by Cloaks and Capes.

It was created as a thank you to Taylor from SoYouWannaBeADM for being a guest on an upcoming episode of the Cloaks & Capes D&D Podcast!

Will of the Storm Father

Wondrous Item, legendary (requires attunement)

“This amulet is made of a dark, smokey stone. Within it thrums the power of a storm, occasionally lighting the amulet’s smooth dark exterior with a soft blue glow.”

While wearing this magic amulet you have the ability to move metal objects by thought. As a Magic action you can exert your will on one metal object, Huge or smaller, that you can see within 60 feet of you. You can control only one object at a time. If the object isn’t being worn or carried, you automatically move it up to 30 feet in any direction.

If the object is worn or carried by a creature, that creature must succeed on a DC 18 Strength saving throw, or you pull the object away and move it up to 30 feet in any direction. If the object cannot be pulled away without the creature, such as if it is wearing metal armor, the creature moves with it. In this case, until the end of your next turn, the creature has the Restrained condition, and if you lift it into the air, it is suspended there. It falls at the end of your next turn unless you use this option on it again and it fails the save.

Review: There is almost a romantic quality to this film that took me for surprise from the start. The sparkle of the dresses and eerie buildup to the trance like acting of the siblings Odile and Christian played by Sharon Tate and David Hemmings which add a weirdness to the film that keeps things on their toes. The slow descent from dreamlike to nightmare for the main character was an enjoyable watch however there was a lot of unanswered questions left by the end. So prepare for things to just happen without explanation or context of meaning. This film does feel maybe slightly older compared to some of the other films coming out at the time with camera tech and fx but still a nice watch.

Overall I give Eye of the Devil (1966): Worth the Watch🍇

I had the idea to see about turning the amulet I designed into a wearable, stat-bearing item & this was the result. 🥰

Obviously, according to the lore I wrote up, a true Amulet of Compassion would need to be created by one person specifically for another using the ancient ritual, but I needed to let that aspect slide in order to make it a viable in-game accessory.
