Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward: and Samuel rose up, and went to Ramatha. (1 Samuel 16:13)

Horn of the Hero
Wondrous item, uncommon

This decorated animal’s horn is sealed at its base and has a stopper inserted into its tip. The horn contains oil made from myrrh, cinnamon, cassia, olive oil, and sweet flag, an aromatic flowering plant. The horn and its contents weigh 1 pound.

As an action, one dose of the oil can be poured over the head of a creature, which is then imbued with bravery. For 1 minute, the creature is immune to fear. Furthermore, the creature gains 5 temporary hit points at the start of each of its turns. When the effects of the oil wear off, the target loses any remaining temporary hit points from this item.

The horn hold enough oil to anoint three creatures. It refills with oil daily at dawn, but never holds more than three doses of oil.
