This brown, weathered leather pouch smells faintly of grave soil and bitter herbs. Inside rattle thirteen cracked molars, each carved with strange symbols that seem to shift when observed too long. These are wisdom teeth taken from those marked by destiny, the Fateborn, and bound together by an old witch’s curse. The pouch whispers softly in the night, as if the teeth grind against each other of their own accord.
Legends claim that to carry this pouch is to carry the weight of thirteen stolen fates. Each tooth offers a sliver of power over chance itself, but at the cost of gnawing pain and the slow erosion of the soul.
The pouch contains 13 charges. If a Fateborn is attuned to it, anyone within 100 feet of the pouch may use its magic. As a bonus action, you may expend any number of charges to influence a d20 test (attack roll, saving throw, or ability check). For each charge spent, roll a d5:
- On a result of 1–4, add that number to the chosen d20 roll.
- On a result of 5 (If using tooth shaped d5, then when it lands on the top of the tooth, standing up), the attuned creature takes 5 psychic damage.
The pouch regains all 13 charges at dawn, but only if a Fateborn remains attuned to it.
CURSE OF THE CRONE
The creature attuned to the pouch has disadvantage on all death saving throws. If the attuned creature dies while bound to the pouch, its soul is trapped within, and only powerful magic such as wish or true resurrection can release it. The attunement cannot be ended willingly until the pouch has been emptied of all charges.
Notes: Disadvantage: Death Saving Throws, Fateborn, and can be used by anyone as long as that Fateborn is within 100ft of the bag. A creature can only unattune to it when all charges has been used.
