One of my Tyranny of Dragons players is playing a druid with a bear theme. He only ever wildshapes into bears, he only summons bears with conjure animals, and so on. The other day we were talking, and he mentioned that he was trying to think of some custom spells he could create for his druid. One example was a tree stride-like spell that would allow him to "shift" between his summoned bears while he is in bear form himself.
I honestly have no idea how to make something like that a balanced spell ... but it got me thinking: what if I were to make it a magic item property instead? Perhaps an amulet with bear claws on it, and maybe it has, say, 3 daily charges in it which he can expend to activate a sort of bear stride ability that lasts for, say, 1 minute a pop. While active, the ability would let him teleport to a space within 5 feet of any bear he's summoned with conjure animals, so long as it's not more than, say, 120 feet away or something.
Whadda ya reckon? Yay or nay?
If your player came to you with the above idea, what would you do?
Thanks in advance!
