Item the Eighth: Cloak of BillowingXanathar breaks wind: Cloak of Billowing, from Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, p.136.Permit me a little bit of doggerel, ere we get started: At night beneath the Moon and Stars,Pirates and swanmays dance.Faerie dragons deliver drinks,Centaurs cavort and prance.• The chime of harp strings wanders out from the Sounds of Joy, temple to Lliira in Waymoot town. • The harp song prances and cavorts along the hard trodden ground, dancing under the doors of The Old Man and The Cup and Spoon.• In The Silver Wink, the harp song tickles bare ankles and climbs up boots to tickle legs and knees. In The Moon and Stars, the harp song dangles from dress flounces, sometimes swinging back and forth like children.• Back outside, and all throughout Waymoot town, harp song finds storm cloaks and winter coats to play with. • Stand still when you hear the temple music, and your cloak will billow and furl. Take a step and your cloak will wiggle and unfurl. • In The Moon and Stars, tired eyes born in other lands look wearily at aching feet come alive with the urge to move. Their owners startle when old hands clap them on the shoulder, and the grizzled voice of an ex-adventurer declares, ”Nothing to fear. Tis the Song of Joy come a calling. Dance if you like. Sit if you don’t. You’re in no danger here.”• A creature that hears the harp song may spend a bonus action to still the tingling in their feet and legs. • For as long as the song plays, a creature may cause their cloak to billow about in dramatic fashion, in the manner of a Cloak of Billowing. • Within the temple, music is played every hour of every day by Joydancers (priests of Lliira) and acolytles.  The Song of Joy takes no specific form; it has no sheet music. It just is.• Once per day the music finds its way out of the temple. Should the music come in the morning hours before sunrise, creatures may well find themselves dancing in their dreams.[ATTACH]103399[/ATTACH](Ye'll find Waymoot on the left.)</blockquote>
