Azetein's Opportune Tape appears as a mundane roll of silvery tape, about the size of a hand. However, upon closer inspection, one can see faint glimmers of arcane energy coursing along its surface. The tape is surprisingly light and always feels cool to the touch.
Effects:
Mend & Fix: As an action, a piece of the tape can be torn off and applied to a broken item. When applied, it mimics the effect of the Mending cantrip. Each use consumes about a 6-inch piece of the tape.
Bridge Gaps: The tape can be stretched up to 10 feet without tearing. When anchored on two opposing surfaces, it creates a thin but incredibly sturdy bridge, capable of holding up to 300 lbs. The bridge lasts for 10 minutes before the tape loses its adhesiveness and falls.
Capture: As an action, you can attempt to bind a creature by throwing the roll at it. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw or become restrained as the tape unravels and wraps around them. The creature can attempt a DC 14 Strength check on its turn to break free. Each use like this consumes 5 feet of the tape.
Swift Seal: If applied to a door, window, or any form of entrance/exit, the tape acts as the Arcane Lock spell. The tape can only be removed by the person who applied it, or if a Dispel Magic spell is cast on it. Each use consumes about a 1-foot piece of the tape.
Limitation:
The tape has a total length of 50 feet. Once all the tape is used, the spool remains, a now mundane item, unless refilled by magical means.
History:
Legend has it that Azetein, a crafty rogue and arcane trickster, had this tape created to aid in his elaborate heists and escapes. It's said that Azetein once sealed off an entire castle's gates and entrances with a single roll, buying him hours of time to pilfer its treasures.
Notes: Each "charge" is the equivalent of 1 foot of tape.
