If sacrifices are made before the next full moon, all affected by the curse return to the state they were in prior to the curse.ĭesign Note: Everyone loves a good harvest-cult with a council of shadowy elders who protect the town by sacrificing outsiders, right? The stone’s effect is really solid, after all. If sacrifices are not made before the next full moon, all attuned creatures will return to kuebiko’s plinth and willingly sacrifice themselves.

This desire does not make the attuned creature less intelligent, but it does prevent them speaking of it to others who are not attuned to the stone. They must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be consumed by an overwhelming desire to sacrifice someone on the stone. Attuned creatures lose their immunity to poison and disease. If this sacrifice does not occur, animals in the affected area become diseased and hostile, and plants rot and die. In addition, three sentient creatures must be sacrificed upon the stone during the first full moon before the harvest – one each night on the day before, during, and after the full moon. As long as you remain cursed, you have disadvantage on all Charisma, Intelligence, and Wisdom ability checks if you leave the cursed area. This stone is cursed, and becoming attuned to it extends the curse to those who have attuned to the stone and plants and animals within a three-mile radius of the stone. Once the stone has been attuned, it may not be moved from its current location until it is no longer attuned.Ĭurse. Up to thirteen people may attune to kuebiko’s plinth at any time. Crops yield twice their normal amount while they remain within the area of the attuned stone. Further, plants and animals within a three-mile radius are immune to poison and disease, once the stone has been attuned. You are immune to disease, the poisoned condition, and poison damage.

This three-foot cube of obsidian stone bears the crude image of a scarecrow with people bowing before it. Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement) Hopefully, these five harvest-themed cursed items will provide a similar level of consideration. The curse does a good job of conveying the berserking theme, and the benefits are such that a group might decide they can work around the drawbacks or need to accept the risk for a short period of time. The axe wants you to use it and only it to fly into a murderous rage to destroy those around you – friend or foe. If you look at the berserker axe, it always provides the benefit of being a +1 weapon that grants additional hit points. While other “cursed” items like bag of devouring have their place, they are more out and out malicious than 5e’s flavor of cursed items. The items strike a careful balance between necessitating their removal and providing fun for the player until such time as they can be removed. These are items with some beneficial effect, often – but not always – look like other non-cursed items, and carry a thematic and dangerous flaw to them. I’m talking about items like berserker axe, shield of missile attraction, and sword of vengeance. If you haven’t looked into it, cursed items in 5e are that good good ish. Let’s serve up a heaping helping of thematic cursed items. It also means that ’tis the season for more harvest-oriented content to complement all of that wonderful food. Both of these are harvest-oriented holidays, which are the best kind of holidays. It’s also the time of all the best US holidays! You have Halloween in October, and Thanksgiving in November. Various sports seasons are…doing sports stuff. You can go outside without feeling like you stepped into a fetid swamp.
