Percussive Pinecone
Wondrous item, rare
-
This spiky pinecone is slightly warm to the touch and thrums with volatile energy. You can use an action to throw the pinecone up to 60 feet. The pinecone bounces once an additional 20 feet in a random direction (determined by rolling a d8) and explodes on second impact. Each creature within a 15-foot radius of where the pinecone explodes must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 4d6 thunder damage and 4d6 piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The explosion can be heard from up to 300 feet away.
-
Certain species of conifer have evolved pinecones with the ability to disperse their seedy payload with extreme force. The sudden sound of an explosion is common within the Maimwood for this very reason.
