Earth Dragon Powder

April 19, 2018  /  J.D.

Earth Dragons are able to burrow through even the hardest stone as if it were soft clay. This powder is said to be made of an Earth Dragon's body after it was slain, dried in the sun, and ground down. It is chalky and will stick to stone. Natural stone or metal material that it is applied to will be pliable with just your bare hands. One use is enough to coat a wall or dig a deep hole. Small applications such as rolling a sword into a ball of bronze does not require a use.

Pilum Galvanis

April 19, 2018  /  J.D.

This short spear is made of a light wood that seems to float lightly in the wielder's hand. Its spearhead is made of copper and crackles with electricity that emits a shifting light.

Pilum Galvanis ignores metal armor. It can be thrown as a javelin, emitting a thunderclap as it instantly moves through any row of foes in a straight line, dealing damage to all of them. Once this ability is used, the spearhead no longer emits electricity and must be recharged by being held aloft in a storm.

Indomitable Flame

April 19, 2018  /  J.D.

This bronze sword seems to have a long, two-handed handle and wide crossbeam for how short and narrow the blade appears to be. It also feels much heavier than one would expect. Gold runes are inlaid along the center of the blade. When gripped with purpose, the blade emits an ethereal white smoke that wisps into a flowing edge - doubling the length and tripling the width of its metal core.

The Indomitable Flame is connected to the soul of the wielder and reflects their inner power - it gains Piercing equal to their CON and +damage equal to their WIS. It also strikes ethereal enemies (e.g., ghosts) as if they were material.

Sareen's Aegis

April 19, 2018  /  J.D.

This round shield is made of the finest silvers and appears to have the face of the moon worked subtly into its shine. It was once wielded by the ancient lunar priestess Sareen who passed it to a warrior woman she found worthy after winning the freedom of her queendom.

At the beginning of a dungeon or campaign, roll 1d8. On an 8, the moon is full and the shield emits a strong beam of silver light. It also grants 2 armor instead of 1. On a 1, the moon is new and hidden. The shield is matte rather than having its normal sheen, and the wielder is invisible whenever they are not moving. If the moon's phase is established in the world or scenario due to other circumstances, follow that rather than rolling.
