Imbued with a spirit fragment that continually surveys the world around it, this crystalline bar is roughened to form a file at one end. When you apply the foe-sensing rod to a weapon, choose aberration, animal, beast, celestial, construct, dragon, elemental, fey, fiend, giant, monitor, ooze, undead, or both fungus and plant. The spirit fragment is transferred into your weapon for 1 hour, keeping watch for creatures with the chosen trait or traits. The affected weapon vibrates slightly if such a creature is within 60 feet of you, unless the creature is disguised or Hidden and has a Deception or Stealth DC of 26 or higher.
Traits
Anything that doesn't list another rarity trait (uncommon, rare, or unique) automatically has the common trait. This rarity indicates that an ability, item, or spell is available to all players who meet the prerequisites for it. A creature of this rarity is generally known and can be summoned with the appropriate summon spell.
ConsumableAn item with this trait can be used only once. Unless stated otherwise, it's destroyed after activation. Consumable items include alchemical items and magical consumables such as scrolls and talismans. When a character creates consumable items, they can make them in batches of four.
MagicalSomething with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
WhetstoneA whetstone is a magically enhanced consumable item designed to increase a weapon's effectiveness
