Wondrous Item, uncommon
While lit, this hooded lantern burns for 6 hours on 1 pint of oil, shedding bright light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for an additional 30 feet. Invisible creatures and objects are visible as long as they are in the lantern's bright light. You can use an action to lower the hood, reducing the light to dim light in a 5-foot radius.
Notes: Detection

Posted Jan 16, 2020Is it reusable? IE, if it runs out of oil can you add more and still reveal invisible?

"You choose nonmagical flame..."
This is a magic item, thus Control Flames wouldn't work on it.

Does this reveal "hidden" things like a rogue in Stealth "mode" or just only the invisible condition?

Posted Apr 7, 2021Just the invisible condition. If an invisible rogue is also hiding behind a bush, you're still not going to be able to automatically see them with this lantern. The lantern gives you the chance of perceiving them as if they weren't invisible, that's all.

Posted Apr 20, 2021The item may be magical, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the flame is. The light could become magical as it leaves the lantern, or it could magically influence invisible entities directly. It's up to the DM at the end of the day.

Posted May 7, 2021Yes. In the description of a scrying it says “On a failed save, the spell creates an Invisible sensor within 10 feet of the target.”

Posted Nov 21, 2021Would this reveal scrying if the focus of the scry was within range of the lantern?
