Treasure ยท Magic Item Rules

Coat of Many Colors

Coat of Many Colors

Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)

Faintly visible in the patchwork design of this colorful garment is an old stain of what appears to be goat's blood.

This garment is clearly used and very old, but also pulses with an aura of divine magic.

Joseph, the dreamer, was gifted this colorful garment much to the envy of his brothers. Jealous of his gifts for interpreting dreams, they sold him into slavery and dipped the coat in goat's blood to make it appear as though he had been killed. Over thousands of years, the Coat of Many Colors has passed from one owner to the next, and along with it, a blessing from God that allows the wearer the gift of dreams.

While wearing this Coat, you can cast the spell dream from it, requiring no material components. Once you have used this feature, you cannot do so again for 1d4 days.

Each time you sleep while wearing this Coat, there is a 25% chance that you receive a prophetic dream. This dream is chosen by the GM, or determined randomly by rolling on the Visions table on page 136. The dream is always truthful, but its meaning is likely hidden behind symbolism and cryptic imagery.

Bible5e custom item. Its specific properties supplement the standard magic item rules.
