Armor (shield), very rare This shield is forged in a triangular shape from many smaller flat panels. When you are holding the shield and are subjected to an area effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, such as a blue dragon’s lightning breath or a fireball spell, you can use your reaction to plant the shield between you and the source of the effect. If you do so, your shield redirects the energies of the effect angularly away from you, forming a 15-foot cone of safety in the direction opposite of the source of the effect. You and any other creature inside the cone take no damage if they succeed on the saving throw against the effect, and only half damage if they fail.

Cursed. Pride comes before the fall. If you take damage equal to or greater than your temporary hitpoints while you have them, you lose an additional 1d8 hitpoints and are poisoned until the end of your next turn.

Potion, uncommon This silvery potion causes one to become swollen with pride. When you drink this potion, you gain 2d8 temporary hitpoints. While you have these hitpoints, you can't be frightened, and have resistance to psychic damage.

Elixir of Eternity

Potion, artifact (requires attunement)

The ultimate dream of all alchemists and transmuters is to unlock the key of eternal life, the Elixir of Eternity. Only the greatest and most cunning of them ever come close to unlocking its formula, let alone carrying out its creation. To craft such a thing, the most exotic and powerful of ingredients are needed, and decades of refinement in the most advanced laboratory imagined.

Ground unicorn horn, the hearts of slain celestials, elemental water from the beginning of time, many such exotic ingredients are thought to be part of its construction. Though the exact recipe is unknown, all of the ingredients are assuredly esoteric to uncover, deadly difficult to acquire, and absurdly expensive to refine and use. Those who seek out its ingredients are guaranteed to draw the ire of existing immortals in the universe, good and evil, who prefer to keep their immortality an exclusive trait.

Such a powerful potion requires an equally powerful container. The elixir must be contained in a perfectly symmetrical diamond bottle, crafted and imbued with powerful magics to make it indestructible. As a potion that defies time itself, its bottle acts as an anchor to reality, preventing it from merely slipping into the past or future.

When you drink this potion, you immediately attune to it, gaining its benefits as long as you remain attuned to it.

Freedom from Time. You do not age, and you can’t be aged magically. You do not require air, food, drink, or sleep.

Freedom from Death. You are immune to poison and disease. When you would be reduced to 0 hitpoints, you are reduced to 1 hitpoint instead, even if you would normally die outright. You cannot die through any means, including divine intervention or the wish spell.

Random Properties. The elixir has the following random properties:

1 minor beneficial property

1 minor detrimental property

The Perfect Bottle. Once drank from its diamond bottle, the potion reappears there the next day at dawn. You must drink the potion again from the bottle each day to maintain your attunement to the it. If you have not drank the potion for 24 hours, you un-attune from it, and lose its benefits. Time does not catch up with you, and you begin aging again as if you were the age you were when you attuned to the potion.

Destroying the Elixir. The potion itself is mere liquid, and can be poured out of its bottle, but to no avail, as it will still reappear in its crystal bottle each day. To truly remove the potion from existence, you must drink it while under the effect of the time stop spell. Then, you must have the bottle in your possession precisely 24 hours later, when it would reappear, and be under the effect of the time stop spell again. The Elixir of Eternity will become anchored to that moment of frozen time. Once the spell ends, the potion will become solid, immovable, and undrinkable, forever fixed to the bottom of the bottle.
