In gratitude, the Rotting Hand the greatest smith the world has ever known fashioned a scepter out of a massive, four-foot-long piece of amethyst.

Another reader requested that I cover magic bows, and thats also on my to-do list.

Some of these weapons I treat as specifically needing to be maces, while others could be any type of bludgeoning weapon but lets not kid ourselves, its all arbitrary.

If you like one of these but think it would be cooler as a greatclub, then youre probably wrong, greatclubs are terrible be my guest.

Two of these are direct lifts from magic items that saw extensive use in the Dust to Dust campaign.

In its benevolent form, its head or striking surface resembles a persons face, smiling beatifically.

While this weapon is in hand, any time you restore hit points to a creature, it gains 1d10 temporary hit points.

If its current hit points are less than half its maximum hit points, it gains 10 temporary hit points instead.

As a bonus action, add one successful death save to an unconscious creature within 60 feet.

When it accrues 3 failed death saves, it shifts to its malevolent form.

You gain a 2 bonus to attack and damage rolls with this magic weapon.

When you hit with an attack using Bloodless, you can spend a charge to deal 2d6 additional necrotic damage.

When you deal damage with it to a creature that is not an ooze or plant, the creature takes a -10 penalty to speed, other than fly speeds granted by spells, until the beginning of your next turn.

This speed penalty does not stack, but it is doubled on a critical hit.

Its strikes feel as if it is grinding bones to powder, and it is uncommonly good at hitting legs right around the kneecap.

You can use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Strength modifier for attack and damage rolls with this weapon.

Spells and attacks made with it deal an additional 1d6 damage to celestial, fiends, and undead.

It has heavy, wicked flanges but no core in its striking head, only a small hook.

The talismans movement within the cage of the flanges creates a heavy tolling, like the bells of doom, regardless of its material.

While you are attuned to Ironheart, you are also attuned to any talisman affixed to it.

You can choose to deal only your Strength modifier in damage, as if you had rolled a 0 on all damage dice.

This power can be used up to three times, and recharges at dawn.

At the last moment, the Amethyst Queen came to his aid; her minions swarmed over the Burning Prince, her magic threatened his life, and he was forced to withdraw.
