Boots of Silent Shadows in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Homebrew

Boots of Silent Shadows

Wondrous Item

Varies Requires Attunement

While you wear these boots, your steps make no sound, regardless of the surface you are moving across. You also have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks.

You also receive a +1 bonus to attack rolls & damage rolls if the targeted creature is surprised or unaware of your presence.

Upgrades

These boots can be upgraded with deeds of great mischief while attuned to them. You must complete two of the options listed below:

  • With a single melee attack, bring a creature from full health to 0 HP while it is surprised or unaware of your presence.
  • With a single ranged attack, bring a creature from full health to 0 HP while it is surprised or unaware of your presence. Then remain undetected by hostile creatures until the start of your next turn.
  • Steal an item or items worth at least 500 GP while remaining undetected by nearby creatures.
  • Create a distraction that draws the attention at least five hostile creatures.
  • Other options are at your DM's discretion.

With each deed of mischief accomplished, the bonus for attack & damage rolls while a creature is surprised or unaware of your presence is increased by +1.

These boots are made from black, velvety-soft leather. The lack of the sound of footsteps while wearing them is rather jarring for those that notice.
