Having had plenty of experience with crafting items in other versions of the game over time (Mostly 3.P) I was a little disappointed in the lack of crafting options that 5e has at its base level. But had the chance last session to make a Magic Item for our Paladin that turned out really neat because of some random luck and NPC help.
We had previously fought and defeated a Thunderboar that our enemies had summoned and had a length of one of its tusks that still crackled with energy, the DM put together a method for crafting that had admittedly a lot of random chance in it but in the end we have a Spear+1 named Stormspike that does a bonus 2d6 Thunder and has a 1/day Lightning Bolt.
The Paladin is a Bronze Dragonborn so we thought it very appropriate that she got the spear, a Smol Storm of Holy Fury, now with more actual storm.
