Wondrous item, legendary (Requires attunement)

You can locate most anything, most anywhere.

Magic Needle. The attuned creature can use a bonus action to mentally choose an object, person, or location while holding the compass. The needle then points directly at it from any distance away until you arrive or you mentally dismiss it as a bonus action. This effect stays active for as long as it takes to arrive or be dismissed and can only be used after half the time was active passes. For example: If it is used for 4 days, then it cannot be used for 2 days after the effect ended; the entire time period from start to finish being 6 days. The Compass that doesn't Point North cannot locate things that are hidden to not be located by powerful magic (at DM's discretion) or in an antimagic field. However, it can still locate things that are invisible.

Hot or Cold Any creature can look at the compass to see its direction, but only the attuned know how far the location is. It isn't an exact measurement; it's more like a game of hot and cold. You know the general distance and know if you are far, really far, close, really close and everything in between and everything around.
