Hi there, I want to design an artifact based on old Greyhawk stuff; mainly a 3.5 version of the Theoparts of Tharizdun.
I am going to start with information I've lifted off of Gord's Greyhawk. This is without permission.
What I would like to do is start with the second one, the Awakener.
The first thing is a description. So far, I've not read the Gord books, so I'm kind of screwed there. Anyone know what this thing looks like? Anyhow, I like the description of powers given and I want to use them all. I need help with the (?) areas.
Theopart 2
The Awakener -The Vitalizer - The Arouser
Step 1: Description
(?)
Step 2: Powers
In it's original form (?), the artifact is NUETRAL EVIL, it should always apply temporary level drain to all goods, lawfuls and chaotics. I think 4 levels is appropriate.
Locate the third theopart.
Bat Like Spiral of Silence (?) -- Perhaps an area of attacking (confusing) silence, perhaps the bats are negative energy, or shadow...
Generate gameboard map of the Abyss (?) -- Umm, this is more appropriate in the description, but it is a power.
Shielding Web (?) -- Pehaps this could be similar to an Otiluke's Sphere or Wall of Webs???
Withering Stuff (?) -- I haven't seen anything that shreds flesh, but it sounds COOL, perhaps something from the Book of Vile Darkness or maybe a Cone of Disintagrate!
This thing changes form into 2 different weapons, the large evil scimitar, and the energy cat 'o nine tails. Both forms are dancing.
Step 3: Scimitar Design -- Large, +3 or +4, gives Monkey Grip (which is a -2 to attacks), Evil aligned, additional negative levels when grasped (not when dancing), Red (?) - should be something.
Step 4: Whip Design -- +3 or +4, Brilliant Energy, Dancing, Whip or Scourge, plus some other power (?) -- electrical or bane good/lawful/chaotic.... something.
Theopart 1
The Initiator
Step 1: Description
(?)
Step 2: Powers
Locate the second Theopart
Harmonic Retrieval Device (?) -- ???
Shoots Anti-matter (negative energy)!!! (?) -- Again Disintegrate...
Wall of Positive Energy (?)
Summon Demons (?) -- Type? Number?
Illusions (?) -- Obviously high level counterparts Which???
Reverse Spells -- Spell Turning (?) What power/level?
Invisible Iron Rack (?) -- What's this for....???
Step 3: Pole Arm/Mace
Bonus to disarms, sundering, crush armor!, drains mortals (?)
Theopart 3
The Unbinder
Step 1: Description
Black Cone with horns, sucks light
Step 2: Powers
Alter time
Heal (?) -- How much? I suggest Mass Heal...
Promote Demons! (?) -- This is a huge effect...
Step 3: Shield
(?)
I'm going to save combos of the Theoparts until these are designed. Please, any help would be appreciated!!!
