Historical Chronicles
The self-mending umbrella is Barty's signature defense tool. Looking like a basic British accessory, it is highly enchanted. It acts as an atmospheric filter, converting toxic pollens into sweet-smelling mist. It can open to absorb grave-wisp curses and redirect massive storms. During his escape from the Maelstrom Vaults, Barty uses its hydrodynamic displacement shield to part a massive magical tidal wave around him like a rock in a stream, leaving him completely dry.
