Totem of the Ice Titan: Art (PNGs)

Greetings All!

This is something I’ve been wanting to try for a while now, and if you could not tell this is the first of a pair. While the counterpart is planned for the future, it is still a few weeks out from here. Focusing on the Ice Titan for now, but you can imagine an opposing image for now.

This is an item that has a lot of possibilities, especially in story hooks. From an ancient castle that has mysteriously frozen over, a mysterious cold snap leading t...

Bridge of the Far Reaches: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

I am so sorry that this slipped through the cracks! I just realized when I was compiling the monthly list, I hope you still enjoy it!

It was really a toss up between tying this to eldritch horrors or demonic for inspiration, and one has just been hitting home for me lately. I promise some infernal fun in the future to make up for it.

While at its core this item is simple, leaning towards a trinket that has an expandable power but an unsettling...

Old Guardsman's Spear: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Keeping the Common train rolling. I wanted an effect built of an older watchman, one of my factor archetypes for character building. Using a power I think befits the item, and has floated around elsewhere this is the result.

VARIANT INCLUDED: The 1d4 Days is a test to keep it from being Attunement. Letting it be a continuous use did seem a little strong for Common, but as always these need some experimenting before locking it in. Th...

Jakob's Old Lantern: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

I love Commons, and borderline mundane items oh so very much. (You’ll likely be seeing some legendary and common weeks coming up!) This of course is a staple of the season.

I like to think it does justice for a miniature origin for a beloved pastime. I hope you enjoy it and have a blast. Tis one of the best parts of the year.

As always, your thoughts, and questions are encouraged in making these better!

Old Bones: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Something Special for Spook Week, Old Bones. A former Lich as a magic item.

While I had a similar spell focus before in Greg ( which is from the lovely @CME_T comic and can be found by scrolling down), I wanted to try my hand at a Cursed Legendary that functioned as a supplementary magic source. The idea was that a caster would hold out their hand and gather energy from the back of the skull, ebbing its life force and dimming its eyes as they cast.<...

Trick or Treat: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Catching up on Spook Week! Another form of ammunition, but geared towards the fun of the season and definitely something new. Based around the colors and candy of one of my favorite times of year.

Doing full stats for a pumpkin that was a bit like a temporary status seemed like a stretch, so I slipped in the bar minimum. If you have thoughts or suggestions I would love to hear them!

Thoughts very much welcome, and I would love to see your thou...

Chieftain's Judgement: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

This one started as a bit of a mystery, and I kept going back to what I remembered of Conan’s father sword with some outside influences. Thus the Chieftain was born as you see it.

While the heft of the blade made me want to go initially strictly greatsword, having dont a greatsword recently and seeing a good case for it as a longword. I settled on both, as well as adding in some more abilities to flavor.

Eldr Arrow: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

It had been almost 8 months since my last arrow! I have always been fascinated by the idea of an arrow capable of melting on contact. This is a take on that incidnery idea with some magic woven in.

Balanced with concentration and a shorter spell span, I am still debating on removing the time limit on the spell. Mostly instilled due to a long range bombardment of this onto an enemy meaning that shifting away while they slowly burn would be a viable t...

Arcane Charge: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Originally imagined as a cluster bomb, with smaller explosions it got just a little too overwhelming in dice mechanics. So pivoting into a gamble of an explosion and time, it is now an arcane grenade with an unreliable fuse.

Building up from the original ancient grenade in power and size, it's a trade off of dangers. Something fun to introduce, that is based off of some of the language of Meteor Swarm.

Vampiric Star: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Embracing some of the darker spectrum of weapons here, I enjoyed thinking up a new type of curse for a non-sentient but thirsting weapon. Hopefully it's not too strong for the advantages of using it, which are massive.

This is based around the spell Vampiric Touch with small adaptations to make it suitable for melee users. The wording is also interesting as I tried to leave it open to Necrotic Damage from other sources compounding its potential.

Helm of the Great Serpent: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Something interesting for those that enjoy the poison aspects of the game, balanced against the Belt of Dwarvenkind via Discord. I am a little under the weather today, (as when I first posted it, have to enjoy the circle of sickness in a household) so I’ll keep it brief.

I really hope you enjoy, and I’ll be around as able if you have any questions.

Updates: Updated Art, Includes original version.

Cypress Amulet: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Speaking of much beloved lore! Did you know many cultures associate Cypress with death rites, underworld, and cemeteries? Not to be confused with Yew, which is considered a literal Death Tree.

Just a small tidbit for this one, as it was posted on my actual birthday and I took some time away. I hope you all enjoy it, and I wish you the absolute best!

Northern Reaches Cap: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

A common item! Something to help ward the cold in the tundras of your worlds, without being overpowering.

I absolutely love the rich cultures and lore of humanity, especially those often less represented. This is inspired largely by the Sami People. The colors and shape are taken directly from the wonderful and rich heritage. While this is a simple fantasy representation, I highly encourage taking a look into their vibrant culture.

Headman's Charge: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Sometimes you just want some options for your hack-n-slashers, with a boost to both damage and survivability based around criticals. With a limited feature tied to an expendable resource to keep it from being game breaking.

As for the item, I hope you enjoy it, as always comments/thoughts are welcome!

Updates: Small color alterations.
