The Star of Daikaiju

Wondrous item, artifact

This blue crystal glows internally. The facets do not line up, suggesting non-Euclidean geometry is at work. Etched into one facet is a magical script reading “All monsters are tragic.”

Command Kaiju. While holding the Star of Daikaiju, if you have a Charisma score of 13 or higher, you can choose one creature with the Colossal Creatures or Lesser Kaiju trait that you can see, and issue it commands, as per dominate monster. These commands ignore immunity to the charmed condition. You exert control in this way for a number of rounds equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier (minimum of 2 rounds). You can use the Star of Daikaiju again after 24 hours.

• 3 minor beneficial properties

Spells. The Star of Daikaiju has 7 charges and regains 1d4 + 3 expended charges daily at noon.
