I have a party of level 4 players. What's the best high level magic item that I can drop into their laps, have cause chaos for a while, and then disappear without a trace?
I was considering a deck of many things, but I don't want them to die, just briefly freak out, maybe go a little power mad.
What game is this? Shadowrun?

D&D. Playing 5e if it matters, but I don't mind converting items from previous editions.
Deck of Many Things
I'm kidding, please don't do that. A Rod of Wonder is always fun though, especially if you throw in your own effects to the table. Just make one of the entries make it vanish without a trace.

Hmmm... I like it. I kind of want to do something with cards still since I got my MtG deck out. Maybe a Rod of Wonder that works by drawing cards from one end of it?

Necklace of Fireballs, with only a few beads remaining on it.
A wand of ___ illusion or ___ wall might be a fun choice as well, as long as the players don't have a way of recharging it. Again, make sure to limit the charges on the thing so they don't just ROFLstomp every encounter for three levels.

wand of brain swapping with 1 charge.

I'm going to agree on the Rod of Wonder
I'm going to disagree with taking it away from them.

Oh, that is evil. What about one of those with the same rules as the machine in Futurama?
A wand that changes the caster's stats to their equivalent class and level from a random edition.
