Starlight's Reach (Patreon)

Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)

These long, silken gloves are dotted with silver stars. While wearing them, you can always see the stars in the sky, even in the daytime, and you can't become lost by nonmagical means as long as you can see them.

While wearing the gloves, you can use a bonus action to summon a javelin of starlight. The javelin appears in your space and moves with you, floating alongside you. It sheds bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. When you summon the javelin, and again as a bonus action on each of your subsequent turns, you can make a ranged spell attack with the weapon, with a spell attack bonus of +8. The javelin has a range of 30 feet, but it can be used to attack a target up to 120 feet away: doing so causes you to make the attack with disadvantage.

If the javelin hits a target, it deals 1d6 + 4 radiant damage, and a shimmering star appears fixed in space at the point of impact. The star sheds bright and dim light like the javelin, and it remains there for up to 1 minute. Hit or miss, the javelin then winks out and reappears next to you in your space.

You can use a bonus action to dismiss the javelin. When you do, the shimmering stars created by the javelin each flare with a celestial light, creating 1-inch-diameter beams of energy between them. A star can have up to two beams of energy connected to it, and each beam must connect to a different star no more than 60 feet away from it (you choose which stars). A creature caught in one or more of the beams must succeed on a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw or take 4d6 radiant damage. The stars then vanish.

After the javelin attacks for the fifth time, it disappears, and any stars created by it wink out without creating any beams.

To watch the Mistress of Stars was to watch the stars themselves. In her gaze was reflected the light of the night sky, and in each step the graceful dance of its patterns.

To those who sought her mountain home in honest-cast humility, she lent the wisdom writ large in every constellation, bold brushstrokes drawing down the supplicants' paths as set in the stars themselves.

But to those who came in cruelty and conquest, those constellations were called to her aid, scribed to the field of battle and united in a vast, entangling web of burning light.

And from both faith to friends and ferocity to foes, the skies around her home were marked with stars of a count beyond innumerable.
