The Wooden Doll of Hope is a small, hand-carved figurine depicting a smiling figure with arms outstretched. Although simple in design, it is lovingly detailed, with faint traces of paint worn away by time and handling. The child was clutching this doll during the village’s darkest hour, and it now carries an aura of quiet resilience and faith.

• Beacon of Kindness: The doll grants a +1 bonus to Insight and Persuasion checks when interacting with villagers, children, or those seeking comfort.
• Heart of the Protector: Once per day, the wielder can inspire courage by holding the doll aloft and speaking an encouraging word. This effect grants temporary hit points equal to 1d6 + the wielder's Charisma modifier to all allies within 10 feet.
• Innocent’s Light: The doll glows faintly when held in darkness, emitting dim light in a 5-foot radius.
