Scroll of the True Name

by Frazer 👁 195 views

The scroll is made of thick parchment with ornate, dark red ink. Its edges are frayed and the parchment has an elegant black ribbon tied around it, which gives it an air of ominous significance. When opened, faint whispers echo from its surface, as if the demon itself is trying to communicate.

True Name Revelation When you read this scroll, you learn the true name of a powerful demon of your choice from the Dungeon Master's guide. This grants you advantage on Charisma (Persuasion) checks when negotiating with that demon. Additionally, you can attempt to compel the demon to obey you, allowing you to cast the spell 'Command' as a 1st-level spell on them; they must succeed on a DC 15 Charisma saving throw or be compelled to follow your command for 1 minute.

Lore

Scrolls containing the true names of demons are rare treasures among scholars of the arcane and the occult. They are said to have been penned by ancient warlocks who sought to control the infernal beings by understanding their essence.

History

Crafted centuries ago by a forgotten warlock who sought to imprison a powerful demon, this scroll has changed hands many times, often leading its holders to both great power and peril. The last known owner was a hunter of evil who ultimately betrayed the very demon they wished to command, leading to their untimely demise.
