Boots of Island Jumping (Island Leapers)

Written by Pookas Kreations

This footwear appears as rough, brown leather boots.
They will resize to the wearer within 4 sizes (tiny to large). Their appearance can also change, similar to a hat of disguise (but only for types of footwear). [They are treated as greater magic items or lesser artifacts depending on how rare magical items are in your campaign.] These boots can allow the wearer to travel Five miles per step, in the blink of an eye. They are only known to the maker, owner, and a few others because the person is only a blur while traveling (DC 25 Notice check). The wearer needs to visualize the destination, elevation and it has to be in sight with no large obstacles (like a mountain) in the way, or the traveler will be stopped before he should have arrived. The other limitation is water, the boots will not travel over water more than waist-deep, they were made from an animal that can't swim or is scared of water.

Significance

Oscar often puts his items in the path of those that he thinks could make good use of them or need to learn a lesson.

Oscar Cassius Fenwick created the Island Jumpers, he is a high-level mage and an Aurach'n demi-god of Travel. He makes many magic items pertaining to travel and often leaves them around for others to find or gives them away.

These boots are a boon to travelers, and explorers. Especially in dangerous areas with difficult terrain. The Skylands are a prime example, in some places are almost impossible to use such as Teranik because of poor visibility.

Some famous explorers have at one time or another been in possession of these boots especially Delver Orlin Urigrim Briros. He discovered the boots in his explorations for resources.
