Brazier of Commanding Fire Elementals
Type: Wondrous Item — Rare Attunement: Not required Source: Battlefield loot — Session 055; recovered from the Orcus-aligned robed wizard after his retreat via Staff of Power retributive strike Current Holder: (unassigned — Greg, confirm which PC claimed this)
Properties
- When burning coals are placed inside and a command word spoken, the wielder can summon up to 3 fire elementals from the flames.
- The elementals obey the wielder's commands; they return to the Elemental Plane of Fire after 1 hour or when killed.
- Once used, the brazier cannot be used again until the next dawn.
What the Party Knows
- The Orcus wizard used this item in combat during the Session 055 battle — summoning a fire elemental as a bonus action, bypassing Counterspell (it is a magic item activation, not a spell).
- The wizard vanished via Staff of Power retributive strike; the brazier was left behind and picked up from the grass.
- Notable: it was the brazier activation that created the second threat front during the fight, forcing the party to deal with both Chasme and fire simultaneously.
