Weapons

Arrow of True Flight

An arrow +2.

When fired this arrow of elven craftmanship homes unerringly on even the most evasive of targets. The construction of the arrow means that should it hit it can be retreived and reused. Unfortunatly the eleven wizards who craft these items have yet to determine why some of them occasionally turn into Arrows of False Flight.

Homing

The arrow hits, regardless of the AC of the target, on an attack roll of 2 or more.

Enhanced critical

The critical threat range of this arrow is 2-20/x2 and overrides any that the bow has or any feats the archer has.

Magic inversion

On an attack roll of 1 the arrow's magic inverts, turning the arrow into an Arrow of False Flight which always misses. An Arrow of False Flight will never turn back into an Arrow of True Flight and is therefore useless.

Sword of Grief

A cursed greatsword +3.

This deep-black blade was once the blade used by the undead skeletal King Nephitin (and presumably used by the King during his life). Unholy magics have trapped broken fragments of tormented souls who can be heard quietly weeping and crying by the wielder.

Cursed

The effect of the curse upon this blade is as yet unknown.

Overwhelming grief

Living, intelligent creatures struck by the blade must make a Will saving throw (DC18) or be overcome with a overwhelming sense of grief. This has the same effects as the Doom spell (-2 penalty to attack, abilty, skill and saving throw rolls) and lasts for 1d4 rounds. If a creature is struct multiple times the penalty does not stack but the duration is extended.

Armour

Nephitin's Armour

A suit of half-plate +3.

An suit of ornate armour worn by a long-dead line of ancient kings. The court mages of the day ensured the armour could save the life of the king should he be mortally wounded during battle.

Life save

A life threatening attack (one which would reduce hit points below 0) is exchanged for a temporay strength drain instead. 1 strength point is needed to negate every 10 hit points of damage.

For example, if Alain has 8 HP and 15 STR and is struck for 15 damage then the armour will drain 1 STR to absorb 10 HP of damage leaving Alain with 3 HP and 14 STR. If a second attack does 17 damage the armour exchanges 2 STR for 20 HP, leaving Alain with 6 HP and 12 STR.
