Property

Large bell flowers in green, black or milky white, each touched by another plane: the Feywild, the Shadowfell or the Ethereal. Powerful beings from beyond often linger where they grow.

Use: replaces the material components of spells that reach other planes (e.g. plane shift) – the bell is tuned to its own plane. Or eat it (action) to see 30 feet into that plane for 24 hours as a ghostly overlay; make a DC 15 Wisdom save or gain a long-term madness (or another trait, GM’s choice) for the duration.

Good for: planar items.

Affinity: planes, fey, shadow, ethereal

In this system

A portion of Veilbell is an empty vessel that can hold 10,000 MP (MP). It only becomes magical when a character charges it. Unique parts are what a special slot is for.
