Message: <blockquote data-quote="Acmite" data-source="post: 357975" data-attributes="member: 183">Expanded Equipment I Champion of Faith A perfectly round +1 large steel shield. There are six phrases etched around its edge, each saying the shield's name in Common, Elven, Draconic, Dwarven, Gnomish, and Halfling. When strapped to Oren Solarian's arm, the unadorned face changed into a symbol of Mayaheine.Caster Level: 3rd; Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Craft Wondrous Item, silent image; Market Price: 2,000gp; Weight: 15lbs Commentary:  Since the discovery of this shield, Oren has  learned that the shield front displays the symbol of the wielders god or godess.  Oren has discovered that he is able to supress this manifestation and he is able to decide which symbol of Mayaheine he wishes for it to display (an older, less well known version or a more contemporary one).  Oren does not know whether or not the shield can be deceived, and he is looking into the possibility of using it as a divine focus. Herald Commissioned for Dryslic Mason, a follower of Mayaheine, the Shield Maiden, this +1 bastard sword is made from the finest dwarven steel. The blade is etched with several litanies of Mayaheine's faith, and the hilt contains a small hollow, where a note or scroll could be kept. When Dryslic was killed, the sword was sold by Milrec Mantis to a half-orc named Podach.Oren Solarian, Dryslic Mason's son, tracked down Podach in Finshave, and was able to purchase the sword because the half-orc was annoyed that the sword didn't burn nor cleave through opponents as the legends said.Caster Level: Unknown; Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor; Market Price: 2,335gp+; Weight: 10lbsXP Devoted by Oren: 0 Commentary:  Finally, a piece of his past discovered!  Oren was most pleased (and a little distressed) with the ease in which he was able to convince Podach to relinquish the sword.  Sure, it cost him a couple thousand gold pieces, but what's money when you are trying to retrieve your father's sword, a holy relic of Mayaheine?  All that's left to recover of his father's is Stalwart , Dryslic Mason's mighty shield.Oren has learned that the bastard sword may take some time to attune itself to him and, once it has, he may be able to awaken the dormant abilities it supposedly had during the time it was wielded by his father.  It's too early to tell what that might entail, but Oren is eager to find out. Herald follows the rules for levelled items found in Dragon Magazine #289.  So far, the known abilities are Keen and Flaming . Braidther A recently forged blade, almost a mirror image of Mayaheine's sword. The sword's name is etched down the flat of the blade. Forged at the request of Frost, Sword of Heironeous, and given to Oren Solarian to replace his broken blade.Market Price: 335gp; Weight: 10lbs Commentary:  Some weeks after a disasterous conflict between Frost, Sword of Heironeous, and Oren Solarian, one package was delivered on the inn bed of each the two individuals.  Upon Frost's bed lay Honour , a masterwork Greatsword forged by Oren as an attempt at some sort of reconcilliation.  It is a simple blade, although finely crafted, and it bears its name in runes along the side.  Upon Oren's bed lay Braidther , Frost's attempt to reconcile with Oren.  The DM had a field day with this as Frost's player and myself both decided (independantly) to have a sword made for the other character.  I wondered what his cryptic smile meant when I proposed this..... </blockquote>
