Hellish Reaper
Added 2024-12-26 16:24:08 +0000 UTCWeapon (glaive), rare (requires attunement)
A target hit with this weapon takes an extra 1d4 fire damage from the attack. If your alignment is evil or if you're a tiefling, you're considered a hellish creature for the purposes of this weapon's properties, and the fire damage increases to 1d6.
The weapon has 4 charges, or 6 charges if you're hellish. It regains all expended charges daily at dawn. When a creature makes a melee attack against you and you're holding the scythe, you can use your reaction to expend 1 of its charges to cause the weapon to emit a hellish flare. When you do so, roll a d4, or a d6 if you're hellish. The triggering attack roll takes a penalty equal to the number rolled. If the attack hits, the damage dealt by it is reduced by twice the number rolled on the d4 or d6. If the attack misses, the attacker takes fire damage equal to twice the number rolled instead.
Curse. This weapon is cursed, and becoming attuned to it extends the curse to you unless you're hellish. While cursed, you gain the following flaw: "Fire makes me anxious."
"We had a bargain. And now comes the time to reap what you have sown."
