Your game, you decide. I think it's allowable, anyway. But even if you're not sure, if you don't think it's a problem (and it shouldn't cause issues at all - not a particularly strong ability) and the players are excited about it, go for it.</p>Yup.

This particular monk has the ability to use Shadow Walk, and that might be problematic. Shadow Walk must be cast in dim light or it doesn't function.</p>Also, as a followup concerning the Helm of Brilliance's ability to glow with blue light when undead are within 30 feet: would that increase the light level within 30 feet when turned on?

I can see room for disagreement, but I'm not going to restrict it. I see no reason it can't be an UAS or a natural weapon. It's not like it'd be super OP or anything.</p>Any weapon you wield.
