Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)
A tiny mechanical eye with fluttering wings meant to follow its owner and capture images of adventuring.
You can use an action to see through this item’s eye and hear as though you are in its space until the start of your next turn. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses. If your own vision is affected in any way (ex. Detect Magic, See Invisibility, True Seeing, etc.) the drone also gains the same benefits.
Drone. While attuned to this item, you can use a bonus action to speak its command word, causing it to animate and hover within 5 feet of you. While animated it has a fly speed of 60 feet, an Armor Class of 20 and 20 hit points. On your turn you can mentally control its movement as long as it remains within 1000 feet of you (no action required). While it is within 1000 feet of you, you can use your bonus action to recall it, causing it to fly back to you using the shortest possible route. If it is reduced to 0 hit points it loses all function until a creature spends one hour to make a DC 20 Tinkerer’s Tools check.
You can use your action to have this item take the Hide action, adding a +5 bonus to its Stealth check.
Stream. As an action you can choose a number of willing creatures within 30 feet of you up to your proficiency bonus. For up to 1 hour, each creature can use their action to see and hear through this item as though by the Drone property.
Once you use this property it can't be used again until you finish a long rest, or you expend a spell slot of at least 2nd level to use it again.
Capture. As a bonus action you can have this eye record its vision as footage which is stored within. While recording, the pupil of this eye glows red. This eye can hold up to 60 minutes of footage, which you can project from the eye before it as though by the Minor Illusion cantrip. If you record while this item already has 60 minutes of footage stored inside, the oldest footage is replaced by the newest footage until you finish recording.
Clip. You can cast the Sending spell once per long rest without expending a spell slot. If you cast the Sending spell while attuned to this item you can project any amount of footage captured by this item into the creature's mind after your message. While watching the footage the creature is deaf and blind with regards to its own senses, but it can choose to stop watching at any moment.
Of course you can't have a PROPER stream without a decent camera to record your adventures with! And there's no better lens in the business than this little number right here, guaranteed to capture everything in stunning detail for sharing with your soon-to-be audience. Get the angle, get the shot, and get your good side with the SHUTTER-FLY!
