Description
These Marbles are usually found in a pouch or small box. Each Marble is filled with a multicolor swirling pattern. When looked upon at correct angle the swirling lines form a question mark. These marbles activate when thrown, either by hand or by sling. The marbles give no bonuses to combat, but when they land they activate one of the 5 following abilities of your choosing.
-Four magical lanterns start to slowly drift around with a base speed of 5 feet for 1 minute. This functions as per the dancing lights spell.
-A soft clamor followed by angry murmuring can be heard from the marbles location. This functions as per the ghost sounds spell and lasts 5 rounds
-A gentle fog starts to spread from the marble. This functions as per obscuring mist spell and lasts for 5 minutes.
-An aggressive fiendish dire rat appears. The fiendish dire rat disappears after 5 rounds.
-The marble resonates with your voice, allowing you to speak through it. This functions as per the ventriloquism spell and lasts for 5 minutes.
A newly crafted batch of Marbles of Useful Distraction consist of 50 marbles. Once a marble’s ability ends the glass marble cracks, rendering it worthless.
