Polished Obsidian Mirror

Wondrous Item

This small, obsidian mirror is a work of art. It is adorned with intricate etchings, resembling the tangled branches of ancient trees. When you gaze into its reflective surface, it not only reveals your own reflection but also the truth concealed by illusions and shapeshifting.

Properties:

  • True Seeing: As an action, you can hold the Polished Obsidian Mirror before you and activate its magical properties. When you do, you gain the effects of the true seeing spell for 1 minute, as though you had cast it. During this time, you can see into the Ethereal Plane, and you can perceive the true form of any shapechanger or creature concealed by illusion or transmutation magic within 120 feet of you through the mirror. This revelation pierces invisibility and disguises, revealing the true nature of creatures or objects affected by these spells.

  • Charges: The mirror can be used in this way once per day. To recharge the mirror, it must be exposed to a moonlit night sky for a full night, absorbing the moon's illumination.

The Polished Obsidian Mirror is a valuable tool for those who seek to unveil hidden truths and expose creatures and objects that rely on illusion and deception. Its power to pierce disguises and reveal shapeshifters has made it highly sought after by spies, bounty hunters, and those who deal with the arcane and the unknown.
