Wondrous item, Legendary (requires attunement)
Dragon's Eyes are very rare amulets, only 9 of them in existence, one for every type of dragon. They were made from insane magic which most speculate to be from the Far Realms. No one is truly sure where these amulets came from, but there are rumors about the leaders of each tribe of dragon missing an eye. More likely, they were given that appearance because of their abilities.
Chromatic Dragon's Eye. These amulets, the ones symbolizing green, black, white, blue and red dragons, all have similar abilities. They all have 10 charges on them. With these charges, you can use a dragon's breath weapon of the type the amulet was made to emulate, as such:
- 1 Charge. You are able to use a wyrmling's breath weapon.
- 2 Charges. You are able to use a young dragon's breath weapon.
- 3 Charges. You are able to use an adult dragon's breath weapon.
- 4 Charges. You are able to use an ancient dragon's breath weapon.
Metallic Dragon's Eye. These amulets, symbolizing gold, silver, bronze, and brass dragons, are similar to the chromatic ones, but with one difference. The abilities of 1-3 charges are the same, but number 4 is something different. You are able to shapeshift into a creature equal to half your level, rounded up. While you are transformed, the following rules apply:
- Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the beast, but you retain your alignment, personality, and Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You also retain all of your skill and saving throw proficiencies, in addition to gaining those of the creature. If the creature has the same proficiency as you and the bonus in its stat block is higher than yours, use the creature's bonus instead of yours. If the creature has any legendary or lair actions, you can't use them.
- When you transform, you assume the beast's hit points and Hit Dice. When you revert to your normal form, you return to the number of hit points you had before you transformed. However, if you revert as a result of dropping to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to your normal form. For example, if you take 10 damage in animal form and have only 1 hit point left, you revert and take 9 damage. As long as the excess damage doesn't reduce your normal form to 0 hit points, you aren't knocked unconscious.
- You can't cast spells, and your ability to speak or take any action that requires hands is limited to the capabilities of your beast form. Transforming doesn't break your concentration on a spell you've already cast, however, or prevent you from taking actions that are part of a spell, such as call lightning, that you've already cast.
- You retain the benefit of any features from your class, race, or other source and can use them if the new form is physically capable of doing so. However, you can't use any of your special senses, such as darkvision, unless your new form also has that sense.
- You choose whether your equipment falls to the ground in your space, merges into your new form, or is worn by it. Worn equipment functions as normal, but the GM decides whether it is practical for the new form to wear a piece of equipment, based on the creature's shape and size. Your equipment doesn't change size or shape to match the new form, and any equipment that the new form can't wear must either fall to the ground or merge with it. Equipment that merges with the form has no effect until you leave the form.
