Pauldron of the Kraken

Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement) 

This dark leather pauldron is engraved with tentacles and smells faintly of saltwater and brine. While wearing this pauldron, you can breathe air and water. Once attuned to the pauldron, the curse is activated, and the pauldron can only be removed by a wish spell. The arm the pauldron is equipped to is magically transformed into a prehensile tentacle that you can mentally control as easily as the arm it replaced. Unarmed strikes made with the tentacle receive a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls and deal double damage to objects and structures. You have advantage on Strength checks made to grapple, and grappled creatures have disadvantage on Strength checks made to escape.
