Activate (Magic Item)

Some magic items need to be activated in order to be used, while others provide a passive, spell-like effect if worn or possessed. If a magic item describes you taking action in order to activate the item's ability, then it requires an action to use. Magic items will use the word "activate" in some form to indicate this explicitly.
