Magic Items

Wrought of blackened steel, the head of this mace is forged in the likeness of three screaming orc skulls. When wielded in combat against orc foes Durgeddin’s Fist bellows an endless stream of profanities and insults in a fearsome dwarven baritone audible for 30 ft.

This magic weapon has 3 charges and regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. While holding the weapon, you can take a Magic action and expend 1 charge to release a wave of terror from it. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or have the Frightened condition for 1 minute. While Frightened in this way, a creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t make Opportunity Attacks. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If it has nowhere it can move, the creature can take the Dodge action. At the end of each of its turns, a creature repeats the save, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Requires Attunement

You gain a +1 bonus to AC and saving throws while you wear this cloak.

Made of tattered, patched canvas and stitched together with thick, coarse twine; a homelier cloak you’ll likely never see. The only exceptional component of the beastly thing is the saucer-sized black dragon scale that hangs over the wearer’s chest when the cloak is worn. It is glossy and bears the sigil of Nightscale herself.

Achis Atracta

Periapt of proof against poison, rare

This amulet is made of an intricately carved bloodstone, shaped in the likeness of a woman’s head. The eyes pulse with a white glow when Achis is speaking. The stone is attached to a delicate silver chain.

Proof against Poison. Achis Atracta has all the powers of a periapt of proof against poison that she bestows upon her wearer—if she feels so inclined. She is very fickle (see Personality).

Sentience. Achis Atracta is a sentient chaotic neutral item with an Intelligence of 10, a Wisdom of 10, and a Charisma of 16. She has hearing and normal vision out to a range of 120 feet.

She can speak, read, and understand Common and Celestial.

Personality. Achis Atracta speaks in a whiny and shrill voice, making demands as though accustomed to being obeyed. She acts like a spoiled noble and expects to be waited on like a queen. Wearers who do not treat her with respect and deference gain no benefit from her item powers. She screams and complains loudly if surprised by a situation she deems beneath her—such as trekking through a sewer or being engulfed by a fireball.

Achis wants to be loved and adored by a person with power and standing like a princess in a fairy tale. Her greatest wish is to fall in love with a prince and be swept off her feet—figuratively speaking.
