Weapon (net), legendary (requires attunement)
No light passes through the void-black material of this net except for a constellation of twinkling stars. The net is 3 feet in diameter when held, however it expands to great lengths when thrown to engulf a target creature. It can be wielded as a net with these alterations:
- You have a +2 bonus to attack rolls made with this magic weapon.
- This net has a thrown range of 20/40 ft.
- A Huge or smaller creature hit by this net is shunted into a planar void for 1 minute. While in this void the creature is deafened, incapacitated and takes 3d6 cold damage at the start of each turn. A trapped creature will float through the airless, silent, starry expanse until freed. To onlookers, the net appears to have engulfed the creature and then fallen to the ground, empty. A trapped creature can attempt a DC 17 Charisma saving throw at the end of each of their turns, freeing itself on a success and immediately reappearing in the closest unoccupied space to the net. Only one creature can be trapped by the net at a time, and a creature that has freed itself from the net within the past 24 hours has advantage on saving throws to do so again.
- If you are within 60 feet of the net, you can use a bonus action to speak its command word, causing it to fly into your open hand or a free space at your feet. If you are already holding the net, the same command word frees a creature trapped within the net.
- Dealing 30 force damage to the net (AC 15) destroys it. If the net is destroyed in this way, a gate is instantly opened to the Astral Plane. The gate originates where the net was destroyed. Any creature within 10 feet of the gate is sucked through it to a random location on the Astral Plane. The gate then closes and any creature that was trapped by the net appears in the closest unoccupied space to where the gate was. The gate is one-way only and can't be reopened
Legend has it that the nebulous net was created when Euphrachtus cut a swath of the night sky to be his blanket.
