Icemist and Beyond: Characters from Small Beginnings

[LiVeWiRe]

Just reviving this thread from the erstwhile dead for a real Livewire...

Thanks Enk!

Good to see you guys 'back in business'!

As for a "we're back" post here, perhaps the details on some of the cool magic items that were found (i.e. the "Shatterspike" sword and the fire glove) or maybe the stats for Abil if that's possible?

Looking forward to it,

-LW

We have a lot of things in the works and Fett will get them to you as soon as he can. I will get him the stats for the gloves to get you started with though. Shatterspike is actually from the module itself so I would hate to repost it here without permission. It didn't last long as you can tell from the current story, eaten by a rust monster. Yeah I'm mean that way. What the DM giveth he also taketh away.

As the story goes on we will try to give out stats for the magic items as they appear. For some items though this will be harder to do as the players still own those items and still haven't figured out their full potential. these items will be listed with their known values but not their unknown. (The players have asked that I don't tempt them by placing them here.)

Thanks dshai...I completely understand why you can't post those 'features' of the magic items the PCs haven't discovered yet.

Didn't realize that the sword was from the module...and yeah, I forgot that you 'remedied the situation'--"a strange creature that fed on steel".

Looking forward to it...thanks again!

Stranger yet is the weapon's ability to hit incorporeal creatures and creatures with DR/+1 despite its lack of magic.

*** Wishbone was trying to combine several potions into one quick vial. What he accomplished was a short-term effect with drawbacks. He died before perfecting any of his brews.
**** Feloine Battle Claws - Three curved blades that strap to the wrist. They have a hinge that allows them to fold back along the arm when not in use. Dmg d6 (X2), Slashing, +2 to climb checks.

The Charred Hand

The black leather gauntlet lay just a few feet away, still adorning the hand of its dead master, and the halfling saw that the glove was unscathed by the flames that had claimed the life of its owner.

Crawling forward, Pack pulled the glowing glove off the dead man’s hand. As it came away, he noticed an intricately branded pattern of flames ringing the cuff. He continued his humming, homing in on the correct tones to discover the key to its powers, until the flames seemed to dance along the leather surface, finally flaring up and blinding him. The stunned halfling dropped the glove, rubbing his eyes as the world shifted slowly back into focus. “Gods on high,” he mumbled, “that’s powerful! What was it that he said? Falmen-neck-ties? Flumen-nick-toes? Fulmenict…”

This left hand black leather glove is adorned with flamelike embroidery covering the lower cusp. The glove is cold to the touch and when worn the user has a persistant chill. The glove absorbs heat and fire allowing the wearer to take half damage from fire based attacks, but now takes double damage from cold or frost atatcks. The glove can store 180 points of fire damage before it must be expunged(A fireball is centered on the caster if the total goes above the 180 mark - 10d6). Six stored points is equal to one charge on the glove and grants it the following powers with the proper command word:

Fulmen (1 charge) - the glove produces a flame that sheds light as a torch and adds the flaming ability to any weapon or attack from that hand. (Note any non-masterwork weapon may be destroyed by these magical flames weither immediately of over time - non-magical wooden weapons are destroyed after one round) Fulmanisis (1 charge) Produces a flame that may be hurled as per the Cleric spell Produce Flame (caster levl = 3) Fulmenictus (2 charges) - scorching ray (Caster level = 3) Fulmenseyciatus - (1 charge per d6) - Fireball (caster level = character level)
