The Last Stand

Original D&D 5e Content — Wondrous Item

Nothing’s more satisfying than a dramatic death scene in the midst of a climactic battle, right?

Actually, there is one thing: a last-second Hail Mary that changes the tide of battle, creating a breathless moment of suspense that players will never forget.

With The Last Stand, your players are rewarded for epic gestures in their most perilous moments. Functioning as a spellcaster’s contingency plan, this item allows magic users to expend tremendous power—up to nine slots worth of spells—in a single moment, but only when they’re failing death saves.

The Last Stand creates the potential for huge plays even when a character is knocked out, keeping players invested in the combat and the battlefield while they roll death saves. If their contingency plan is effective, they’ll be a hero that won the battle from death’s door. Worst case scenario, they help their friends as they go out in a blaze of glory.

Get the Last Stand and create unforgettable moments at your table.
