Cooling Temper (5e Equipment)
Wondrous item, artifact (requires attunement)
A powerful artifact created by a wizard to suppress or control powerful forces within oneself. It seems to keep the wearer's mental and emotional state calmer when in dire situations that would cause an escalation of emotions. It also seems to give the wearer a boost in physical strength and mental fortitude.
Left & Right Gauntlet. Each gauntlet grants the user a +1 to Strength, Wisdom, and Dexterity scores for a total of +2 to both scores when worn at the same time. While both are equipped, you also gain proficiency in Wisdom saves.
Neck Bracer. While wearing this neck bracer, you have advantage on Wisdom saves.
When all three pieces are worn simultaneously and attuned to, you automatically save when trying to keep powerful energy under control within yourself, and your unarmed die tier increases by 2 (1->d6 d4->d8), and you will count as two sizes larger for the purposes of grappling, shoving, disarming and the weight you can carry, push, drag, or lift.
Destroying the Cooling Temper. The neck bracer breaks when emotions cause power to exceed the limits of its magic (roll d100, 75-100 means Neck Bracer shatters). The gauntlets break when hit by powerful enough magical or otherworldly forces.
