Wondrous item, uncommon
Inside of this small dispenser are 1d4+2 sticks of gray, horehound-flavored chewing gum.
As an action you can start to chew a stick of gum. While chewing the gum you can see into and through solid matter for up to 1 minute, at which point the gum loses its flavor. This vision has a radius of 30 feet. To you, solid objects within that radius appear transparent and don't prevent light from passing through them. The vision can penetrate 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, or up to 3 feet of wood or dirt. Thicker substances block the vision, as does a thin sheet of lead.
As an action before the flavor fades, you can blow a bubble and stick the bubble to a solid surface. The bubble allows creatures to see through a 6 inch diameter circle on the surface it is stuck to as if they are under the effect of this gum. The bubble lasts until the flavor fades and then it deflates and is destroyed.
Uriel stopped “Ah, there he is” and she pulled a wad of faintly glowing gray gum from her mouth, offering it to her companion. He stared at her offering in disgust “Absolutely not.” She rolled her eyes and shoved it back into her gob before blowing a large bubble, extracting it, and sticking it to the wall. The two of them could now see into the room, as if she had opened a one-way porthole. In the room were two men, one tied to a chair and the other gleefully poring over a desk bestrewn with vile torturing implements. “Quickly now!” she hissed. Her companion fumbled with a component pouch and whispered something that sounded like a bad joke into a crack in the wall. Suddenly the torturer doubled over and fell to the ground, cackling hysterically. With a resounding crack, audible over the torturer’s hideous laughter, Uriel kicked the door down and rushed into the room. Her husband was unconscious, so she lifted him chair and all, before spinning around and bellowing “Let’s get out of here!”
