Cape of the Mountebank 5e
Wondrous Item, rare
This cape smells faintly of brimstone. While wearing it, you can use it to cast the dimension door spell as an action. This property of the cape can't be used again until the next dawn.
When you disappear, you leave behind a cloud of smoke, and you appear in a similar cloud of smoke at your destination. The smoke lightly obscures the space you left and the space you appear in, and it dissipates at the end of your next turn. A light or stronger wind disperses the smoke.

Need a quick escape plan for you and a friend? Get a Cape of the Mountebank, and leave a cloud of smoke where you left!
Dimension Door can teleport you and a willing creature near you up to five-hundred feet.
The smoke left behind only affects you, not an ally. They won’t appear in smoke, nor will they leave smoke behind from their space.
Lightly obscured areas impose disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight of any creature affected. You’re as equally as affected as your enemies.
