[magic item] Sendrick's Firestarter

Sendrick is a human magic-user who specialized in cantrips, and the domestic use of  magic. His utility belts are widely sought after, his tools are praised by many master artisans - and even more so by apprentices. He lives on a farm with his family, and some students in the sunny south near the Old Troll Hills.

Sendrick's Firestarters
Wooden chips of various colors (all hand-painted) with carved magic symbols. When placed near flammable material the firestarter will - on command - ignite a small magic flame that will get a fire going even during a storm. The firestarter lasts for 1d6 minutes after which a non-magical fire will continue to burn until put out.
