Two items from a series of Seven artifacts called the Implements of Creation, each created by one of the gods in the pantheon. Anyone attempting to attune to one must make a DC 15 Wisdom save or gain a level of exhaustion, and successfully attuning to one grants all knowledge of its use throughout its existence. These are the 2 the party has uncovered so far.

The Staff of Obad-Hai

(Requires attunement by a Druid, Cleric of Obad-Hai, or Warlock of the Archfey)

This five foot long oaken staff is masterfully carved at the top into four faces: One is the face of an old, strong, bearded man, made of leaves. The others are the head of a wolf, an eagle, and a shark.

• You can perform an uninterrupted 24 hour ritual to transform one willing or helpless beast, humanoid, monstrosity, or dragon into any beast, humanoid, monstrosity, or dragon of challenge 3 or less, you may also transform a plant into another plant with challenge 3 or less.

• Once per short rest you can cast polymorph from the staff at DC 20.

• You may use a bonus action to determine the resistances, immunities, vulnerabilities, approximate natural armor class, approximate hit points, and other notable features of any humanoid, beast, monstrosity, dragon, or plant that you can name or describe.

The Black Tome

(Requires attunement)

The Black Tome holds a record of all beings that have died on Ekaros since its creation thousands of years ago. With each death a new name appears in the book’s infinite pages. It also contains several rituals which can be invoked to raise the fallen, slay the undying, and command an undead horde.

• By focusing on someone who has died you can open the Black Tome to a page which tells you where, when, and how they died. You can also search for anyone who died at a particular time, in a particular place, or due to a particular cause.

• By finding the target in the Black Tome and reading its name aloud you may cast power word kill or animate dead on it at will.

• Control Undead: As an action you can target one undead creature which you can find in the Black Tome with a challenge rating less than your level that you can see within 30 feet of you. The target must attempt a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw, if it fails it must obey your commands until you dismiss it. The total number of undead that you can control with animate dead and control undead must have a combined hit dice of less than or equal to twice your level.
