💎 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Hat of the Nimbus Mage
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a druid, sorcerer, warlock, or wizard) ___

This twin-peaked wizard hat has thin, wispy clouds circling its mountainous spires. You can mentally command the clouds to look like different weather using an action.

The hat has 6 charges and regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn. If you spend at least 1 hour in a naturally occurring fog bank, the hat regains all expended charges at the next dawn instead.

𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙨. While wearing the hat, you can expend 1 or more of its charges to cast the following spells from it, using the typical casting time for each spell when you do: “feather fall” (1 charge), “gaseous form” (3 charges), or “misty step” (2 charges; you appear as a swiftly traveling patch of fog). Alternatively, you can use an action to expend 1 or more charges from the hat to cast the “fog cloud” spell from it. For 1 charge, you cast the 1st-level version of the spell; you can increase the spell slot level by one for each additional charge you expend.

𝙉𝙚𝙪𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙯𝙚 𝙒𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧. While wearing the hat, you can use an action to expend 2 of its charges to return any naturally occurring inclement weather within a 1-mile radius, centered on you, to a neutral state. The neutral weather can be clear or with light clouds, cool or warm, and with either a calm or moderate wind. After 8 hours, the weather returns to its previous state, unless the GM rules otherwise. You must be outside to use this property of the hat. ___

New Titans #33 - "The Future is Tomorrow" (2026)

💎 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Thunderbolt Quill
Wondrous item, rare ___

This quill writes by burning parchment, velum, or similar surfaces with electricity, instead of using ink. Dusting the surface with the quill’s feather erases any mark made with it. It takes half as long as normal to write or copy something using this quill, as it races across a surface with ease.

You can use the quill to copy a spell into a spellbook. When you do, the spell doesn’t require special ink, halving the gold you must normally spend to do so. If you use this quill to copy a damage-dealing spell into a spellbook, you can choose to change the spell’s damage type to either lightning or thunder. You make this choice when you copy the spell into the book. Each time you copy a spell into a book using the quill, roll a d8. On a 1, the quill loses its magic after copying the spell, but can still be used as a normal quill. ___

Surrealist office space in a preserved/adaptive reuse of a 1907 church - Oklahoma City, OK (early 1990s)

Designed by HTB, Inc.

Included the third image since it's an example of a surreal, mostly forgotten trend in postmodern spaces: adding mannequins/contemporary 'statues' as a part of the overall decor (outside of their more typical applications in store windows, modeling clothing in department stores, etc.); in this case construction workers perpetually 'repairing' the old church facade.
