Whispering Cloak of the Moonlit Echo
Wondrous Item (Cloak), rare (requires attunement)
This ethereal cloak shimmers with a silvery hue and seems to be woven from the very essence of moonlight. When draped over the shoulders, it feels weightless, and the fabric gently rustles as if whispering secrets from the celestial sphere. The cloak grants the wearer enhanced stealth and connection to the lunar cycles.
While wearing this cloak, you gain the following benefits:
-
Lunar Veil: You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made at night or in dim light. Additionally, as a bonus action, you can become invisible until the start of your next turn. Once you use this ability, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
-
Echoes of the Past: You can cast the Speak with Dead spell once per day, without expending a spell slot. The whispers of the cloak allow you to commune with spirits who have passed under the light of the moon, revealing secrets or forgotten knowledge as they echo through the night.
-
Moonlit Fusion: The cloak has the ability to absorb ambient moonlight. When you are in an area illuminated by the moon, you can regain a number of hit points equal to your level at the start of your turn. The cloak can store this energy, granting you a total of three uses. Once all uses are expended, it will need to be exposed to direct moonlight for a full night to recharge.
-
Banish the Shadows: Once per long rest, as an action, you can create a 30-foot radius of dim light around you that lasts for 1 minute. This light dispels magical darkness and grants you and your allies within the area advantage on Wisdom saving throws against being frightened.
The cloak carries whispers of long-lost souls who thrived beneath the moon, each telling stories and secrets only revealed to those worthy enough to wear it. It is said that the fabric of the cloak shifts according to the lunar phase, growing brighter or dimmer, reflecting the balance of the cosmos. Wearing this cloak could lead adventurers to uncover mysteries hidden away in the shadows of the night.
