Hey y'all. I've never played dnd before but I absolutely love making magical and cursed items. This is one I made a while ago but is 100% free to be used in your games!

Broken Cavalry Doll

A broken clay doll of a cavalryman atop a mighty stead. The head of the soldier and horse have long since been lost to time yet most of the craftsmanship still remains. It seems to make things like horses extremely nervous.

Effect: Once held if a trained mount comes within 15 meters of you they must make a wisdom saving throw or otherwise become panicked and must flee from you.

I figured it would be a cool item to help deal with enemies that use mounts while also potentially backfiring against your own party's mounts.

Apologies ahead of time for not putting in stat details. As I said earlier I have never actually played in order to learn the rules. I just like designing the items. If you manage to use this during one of your campaigns, let me know how it turns out. I'd love to hear the story. :)
