A brass compass with a sliver of Himinkryst for a needle. It doesn’t point north. It points home.


Wondrous Item(Navigator’s Instrument) , Uncommon (No)

While holding the needle, you can spend 1 minute naming a sky port or dock you have visited within the last 30 days. Until you name a different one, the needle points toward it.

  • A quartermaster steering toward the named port has advantage on navigation checks.
  • At night, the quartermaster ignores the penalty for having no stars or moon to steer by (see Navigation).
