Chimera Trident

Added 2024-03-18 15:04:11 +0000 UTC

Weapon (trident), very rare (requires attunement)

This dark silver trident is decorated with the sculpted busts of three creatures: a dragon, a goat, and a lion. Each head gives way to one of the trident's three prongs. You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. When you make a ranged attack using this weapon, it flies back to your hand immediately after the attack.

While holding the weapon, you can use an action to release a fiery breath from the trident's heads in a 15-foot cone. Each creature within that cone must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 7d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Once this property has been used, it can't be used again until the next dawn or until you hit a hostile creature with the trident and roll a 6 or higher on the damage die, whichever comes first.

By caprine strength I strike true,

with leonine fangs I draw blood,

in dragon's flame I burn.

The chimeric is decried as monstrous,

but is it so monstrous, to wield all one's gifts to thrive?
