It serves as a perfect location for characters seeking to rest, plot, or find mercenary work. With a robust and almost mythical atmosphere, it offers a setting for roleplay involving camaraderie, brawls, and opportunities for heroics. This tavern caters to the bold, and those who find themselves here must prove themselves either through their words, deeds, or sheer strength. Suggested Themes for Adventures: - Mercenary contracts or bounty hunting opportunities - Tournaments or challenges held within the tavern for gold and glory - Espionage and covert missions that take root in the tavern’s shadows - Fights between rival factions of adventurers, with stakes that could change the balance of power in nearby lands Feel free to use this tavern as a foundation for stories centered around warriors, camaraderie, and the rougher side of adventuring life.

Iron Bands of Binding

Rare•Gear (Wondrous Items)

Weight1.00 lb.

Description

This rusty iron sphere measures 3 inches in diameter and weighs 1 pound. You can use an action to speak the command word and throw the sphere at a Huge or smaller creature you can see within 60 feet of you. As the sphere moves through the air, it opens into a tangle of metal bands. Make a ranged attack roll with an attack bonus equal to your Dexterity modifier plus your proficiency bonus. On a hit, the target is restrained until you take a bonus action to speak the command word again to release it. Doing so, or missing with the attack, causes the bands to contract and become a sphere once more. A creature, including the one restrained, can use an action to make a DC 20 Strength check to break the iron bands. On a success, the item is destroyed, and the restrained creature is freed. If the check fails, any further attempts made by that creature automatically fail until 24 hours have elapsed. Once the bands are used, they can't be used again until the next dawn.
