Hello there fellow ex-DM academy scholars, Just left Reddit for good, so I'm here with a question that wasn't answered in under spez's shadow, so I might try it here if I can.

I would like to know if you know of magical items or spells for 5th or similar that would attract ghosts and other spirits : ghosts, banshees, souls, etc.

I would like to take example from an existing item for what I am preparing in a currently used dungeon that I made.

Thank you in advance, and fuck spez

For artefacts that have little no to no PC use in combat I worry very little about balance or mechanics. Just let it do what I want it to do. Kind of a non-answer I know.

I would actually look more to lair effects and weird things from dungeon rooms for inspiration in this case. Don't have any on hand but it could be another avenue of research.

I am going to steal your idea though and put it in the big ol' good-ideas-that-i'll-forget-about folder.
