Weave Stripper
Wondrous item, rare
Part trap, part torture device, part magic removal mechanism. The weave stripper is a gold banded, lead-lined box that houses a portal to a remote, antimagical corner of the abyss. The denizens of this void feed on the Weave, forcibly removing it from the creatures around which it is woven.
As an action, you can place and unlock the box, which slowly and eerily creeps open. At the start of the following turn, black smoke spews forth, soon followed by writhing, ethereal purple tentacles that flail and thrash towards all sources of magic within 20 feet of the box.
Each creature that starts its turn in the area must make a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw. If the creature is concentrating on a spell or under the influence of a spell, it has disadvantage on the saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 3d10 psychic damage, loses concentration if it is concentrating on a spell, and has any spell of 5th-level or lower that is affecting dispelled. On a success, a creature takes half as much damage, does not have any spells dispelled, and makes checks to maintain its concentration as normal.
As an action, a creature within reach of the box can attempt a DC 15 Strength check, closing it on a success. Otherwise, after one minute, these abyssal creatures satiate themselves, retreat back into the box, the effect ends , and the box can be closed (no action required). If the box is opened again before the following dawn, there is no effect.
