Pipes of the Sewers
- English Name: Pipes of the Sewers
- Requires Attunement: Yes
- Rarity: Uncommon
- Item at DnD Beyond
Have you always wanted to feel like the famous Pied Piper of Hamelin? Then this magical item is perfect for you. As long as you wear it and are attuned to it, normal and giant rats will not attack you, as long as you leave them alone.
The Pipes of the Sewers have 3 charges that you can recharge with 1D3 at dusk. During a bonus action, you can use one charge by playing the pipes and thereby attracting a swarm of rats, provided there are enough rats within a half-mile radius of you.
You can also use the pipe multiple times to attract more swarms of rats. Initially, these swarms are not under your control, but as soon as they come within 30 feet of you while you play, they must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw of 15, or else they will follow your command.
If they succeed on the throw, they continue to behave like normal rats and cannot be influenced by you for the next 24 hours. This also happens if the swarms move more than 30 feet away from you.
