Dungeons and Dragons has long been defined by adventuring with your friends, finding cool magic items, and using them to beat the crap out of anything evil that moves. Mythic Odysseys of Theros continues this tradition by adding in a variety of new materials for players to try out.
Amongst the material added in MOoT, such as new subclasses and races, are 8 new magic items to help you in your adventures. These magic items vary widely in power and ability but suffice to say they’re definitely worth tracking down. Keep in mind that these items are balanced for MOoT so be sure to review them before adding them to your game.
Siren Song Lyre (Wondrous Item, Rare, requires attunement)
You can use an action to play this lyre and cast one of the following spells with it: animal friendship, charm person, enthrall, suggestion. If the spell requires a saving throw, the spell save DC is a 13.
Once the instrument has been used to cast a spell, it can’t be used to cast that spell again until the next dawn.
This item is going to turn into a must-have for bards everywhere, as three of the spells that are castable by this item are major spells in the bard’s arsenal.
Sling Bullets of Althemone (Weapon, sling bullet, Very Rare)
The sling bullets come in a pouch that contains 1d4+4 bullets. Roll on the Magic Sling Bullets Table to determine the magical property of each sling bullet.
You have a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls with each sling bullet. If a bullet misses its target, it magically returns to the pouch. Once it hits a target, it loses its magical properties.
These magical properties vary on a scale of 1-4, and range from a banishment spell to extra damage and the potential to stun. The potential to stun is enough to make this item of Very Rare quality. If you get the chance, be sure to grab this item.
Two-Birds Sling (Weapon, sling, Rare)
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.
When you make a ranged attack with this weapon and hit a target, you can cause the ammunition to ricochet towards a second target within 10 feet of the first, and make a ranged attack against the second target.
If you like this material, it’s suggested to view the Mythic Odysseys of Theros content for more information.
Mythic Odysseys of Theros is currently out on places such as Roll20 and D&D Beyond as digital copies, and the campaign sourcebook will hit physical markets on July 21st.
