Item Type: Wand
Rarity: Very Rare
Description: Crafted from the charred branch of an ancient shadow-top tree, this sleek wand is wrapped in dark velvet strips and has a core that faintly pulses with a mysterious dark energy. When held, it feels unusually cold to the touch, and shadows seem to gather around the caster.
Abilities:
-
Eclipse: As an action, the wielder of The Blackout Wand can activate it to instantly extinguish all natural and magical light sources within a 60 ft radius centered on the caster. This area becomes shrouded in magical darkness that non-magical light cannot illuminate. Magical light sources can only illuminate this area. This darkness lasts for 1 minute or until dismissed by the caster as a bonus action. This feature can be used once, regaining use after finishing a long rest.
-
Blind Escape: If the wielder takes damage, they can use their reaction to activate the wand, immediately enveloping themselves in a brief, intense burst of darkness. This burst blinds all creatures within 10 feet of the wielder for 1 round, unless they succeed on a Constitution saving throw against the wielder's spell save DC. This feature can be used once, regaining use after finishing a long rest.
Curse: When used, the caster finds themselves becoming increasingly uncomfortable in bright light. While in direct sunlight or in the area of a Daylight spell, the caster has disadvantage on attack rolls. The curse dissipates after a long rest.
