Exploding Orb (AKA Holy Hand Grenade)
Only two of these orbs have been known to exist - and all have been in the hands of a powerful party named the Great Eight which was known to own some weird magic items and research strange spells.
The orbs are made of simple steel, about half the size of a soccer ball and seem to be completely nonmagical. They are too large and heavy to put them into a sling, but they can be hurled up to 60 ft (a catapult would do better, of course
). The orbs explode when they hit a solid surface, and deal 20d10 points of force damage plus 10d6 fire damage in a 30 ft radius. A failed reflex save vs. DC 30 kills a creature lesser than a demigod within the affected area. On a success, it takes only half damage (charakteres with evasion are no exception).
Caster level: 20
Prerequesites: Craft wondrous item, Delayed Blast Fireball, Greater Glyph of Warding, Disintegrate
Market price: Up to the DM.
Although the Great Eight managed to kill a powerful wizard and crater his fortress with the last orb, the party lost three of its members in the explosion. The explosion was accidently caused when the party's druid hold the orb and was hit by a Disintegrate from the wizard and the orb fell to the ground. The two mages from the party teleported away just in time, the ninja run to the next door (he was caught by the explosion, but he made his save and survived), the paladin and the fighter died, the cleric escaped into the ground (she was a member of the earth clerics from Athas) and the halfling was too far away to get hit.
EDIT: 1/20 is done...950 items to go
