A swazzle is a device made of two strips of metal bound with sinew and around a reed that, when held to the mouth, causes the user's voice to take on a distinctive rasping tone. Swazzles are often used by street puppeteers to give their puppets' voices a unique and memorable timber. A mocker's swazzle, though, has a different use—rather than simply giving voices to troublemaking puppets, it helps a performer fight back against hecklers in a crowd.
Activate—Heckle the Heckler r (auditory, emotion, linguistic, manipulate, mental)
Frequency once per hour
Trigger A creature within 30 feet of you attempts and fails to you
Effect You quickly fire a retort back at the triggering creature, mocking its failed attempt in a way that makes it laugh at its own ineptitude; you cast ( save) on the triggering creature.
Activate—Mocking Spell 1 (auditory, linguistic, spellshape)
Frequency once per day
Effect You direct a quick bit of insulting mockery at a creature who can understand you that's within earshot. If your next action is to cast a mental spell that targets only that creature, that creature takes a –1 item penalty to any saving throw against the spell and, regardless of the result of the saving throw, becomes until the start of your next turn.
