[QUOTE="Mhyr, post: 6688778, member: 6791633"] Yes, that's what I thought, too. I tried to counter this with the [i]Truthspeaker[/i] Quirk. It developed from the background of the item. It was given to the dwarven cleric of moradin (on level 4) by his fellow member of the Order of the Gauntlet Daran Edermath. The half-elf adventured on the Dragon Coast AFAIK remember, so it was likely he had some treasure from that area. I came up with the Nightmasks and one thing led to another... At the moment the whole item description looks like this: ? (+1 shield) [b]Creator:[/b] [i]Human[/i]. The Eye of Justice, the sect of the Threefold God, created this shield to withstand the vampiric soldiers of darkness. It still shows the symbol of the sect prominently. [b]History:[/b] [i]Religous[/i]. The Heresy of the Threefold God was a belief that Helm, Tyr, and Torm were the same god. The Eye of Justice was the only known organization that held this belief. In 1384 DR, Gedrin Shadowbane had a vision in which Helm was slain by Tyr and Helm’s godhood merged with Tyr’s. Later, Gedrin had another vision in which Tyr was killed by Orcus after which Tyr’s essence merged with Torm’s, creating the Threefold God. And this shield has been blessed by Gedrin Shadowbane and the power of the Threefold god himself, for it was created to fight the vampiric Night Masks of Westgate. Daran Edermath was awarded with it in his early years on the Dragon Coast after defeating a contingent of the infamous thieves’ guild in Teziir, before giving it to the dwarven cleric Rangrim. [b]Minor Property:[/b] [i]Shadowbane[/i]. The bearer of this shield has necrotic damage resistance, while protecting oneself with it. [b]Quirk:[/b] [i]Truthspeaker[/i]. The bearer of this shield cannot lie (as if under the effect of the spell [i]Zone of Truth[/i]), while protecting oneself with it. Now this is a great idea! Although I would just turn it the other way around and make it only work in the night, as vampire hunting/fighting is likely to take place during this time. Great! Thanks a ton, jgsugden!! Would you make this true in addition to the Quirk or replace it? [/QUOTE]
