Necklace of Fireballs 5e
Wondrous Item, rare
This necklace has 1d6 + 3 beads hanging from it. You can use an action to detach a bead and throw it up to 60 feet away. When it reaches the end of its trajectory, the bead detonates as a 3rd-level Fireball spell (save DC 15).
You can hurl multiple beads, or even the whole necklace, as one action. When you do so, increase the level of the fireball by 1 for each bead beyond the first.

This may say it's a necklace, but in reality this is a bazooka. You’re packing grenades you can pick off and throw out as needed. It's a tool of mass destruction masquerading as jewelry.
These don’t grow back or recharge; once a bead is spent, its gone for good.
Throwing multiple beads at once is almost always worse than saving them for later; 1 bonus d6 per bead leads you to “losing” 7d6 Fireball damage. Generally, this is a terrible deal.
These beads always have a 60 ft. range, despite Fireball’s cast range being 150 feet.
