Crup Pipes

Wondrous Item, very rare (requires attunement)

These pipes are fashioned from the teeth of the chcrup dragon. The pipes are short, about 3-4 inches long, and consist of many of the dragon’s teeth bound together with thin leather strips of magical iergild metal. Manufactured by only the most skilled craftsmen, it takes a bard of at least 5th level to play them. The bard has to be in possession of the pipes for at least 2 months before he can begin to use the item’s magical abilities. When expertly played, the crup pipes are able to charm listeners within 50 feet. Those who hear the pipes must make a successful charisma save against the owner’s spell DC or come under the player’s spell. It acts in all respects like the charm person/monster spell.
