Hello. I've been wanting to start DMing in D&D 5E, but have yet to do so. I have however thought a lot about different things, and one being magic items. I came up with an item inspired from X-Men's Nightcrawler which I would love to get some feedback on. What should be changed and how late in the campaign can such and item be given to the party?
Ring of Teleportation
The wielder can as a quick action on his or her turn teleport 30 feet away to an unoccupied space that he or she can see. The wielder may then perform an action before getting automatically teleported back to his or her original position. This ability can be used once after every long rest.
This is like a Misty Step that I see inspiring creativity. You can't flee the melee opponent bashing your face in, but perhaps teleport to your tank, grab him and get teleported back with him between you and the foe trying to bash your face in, or "oh no, my party member fell down the hill! Teleport to him, grab him and get back to safety", or just get a free melee attack on someone while still keeping a distance.
An option would be to have some DC on the ability which needs to be succeeded in order for the item to work. Any tips or tweaks appreciated, and I'd love to know other people's opinion on how far into a campaign such an item could be given to the party.
