Here is the second system agnostic magic item from my #folkmagic series of folklore items. The Witch's Ladder comes from Italian folklore and were said to enable you to kill someone with a wasting disease if hidden under their beds. But I added a bit of flavour to make them a more active item

The image has a title of Witch's Ladder and shows a piece of brown rope with black hen's feathers knotted into it. Below the image is the following text "A malevolent charm made from a piece of rope with black hen's feathers knoted into it. Traditionally they wee left under the bed of someone to be cursed. they would slowly waste away getting weaker each day until dead. However when carried as a weapon they can be use like a whip. If being carried by a spellcaster they can use their casting modifer as their attack modifier. Upon a successsful hit the witch's ladder does 2D6+5 points of necrotic damage. The maximum health is also reduced by the same amount. If the max health drops to zero the target immediately dies."

Love learning little nuggets of folklore from all around the world and these items are such a great way to introduce them! This would be perfect for a game set in Brancalonia, the so-called "Spaghetti Fantasy" world created by Italian publisher Acheron Games
