"Few creatures can harness the power of lightning, even fewer can control it. Our feeble bodies are not among them. So we must use what we can to protect ourselves from those that do."

Scroll, rare
This sky-blue scroll flutters in a magical breeze and is written in Elvish. Faraway clouds can be seen floating in the background of its parchment and magically sputter into existence upon reaching the edge. Miniscule birds soar through the clouds, both on the paper and off.

The storm-souled archdruid stood atop his haven in the tempest's heart: a sphere of calm within an abyss of tearing black clouds. Despite the raging winds that protected the sanctum, the harpies had carved their way into it to destroy him.
Grafted with their sickly wings, the hunters circled him warily. He was no simple prey, and they warily readied their arms as the druid quietly sang, reading from a scroll held in aging hands.
The calm air shifted, and its ...

There are enemies that simply must be defeated, no matter the cost, whose downfall is paramount to all else. Against such threats, collateral damage is not only acceptable, but expected.

The flames are harmless to you.
While your arms are alight, the fi...

Ring, rare
A silver serpent twists around itself three times to form the shape of this ring. Its tail is bitten by its jeweled head. While wearing the ring, when a creature that you can see (including yourself) rolls a d20, you can use your reaction to speak the ring's command word and roll a d8. You make this decision after knowing the result of the roll, but before the GM declares the outcome.
When you do, you alter the number rolled on the d20, before any mo...

Triumph and disgrace are only a matter of vain perspective, set in place by twisted chance and held by the most easily twisted threads of fate. In the end, there is no other difference between the devourer and the devoured.

The mountains were the home of the fireweavers: little more than a small community taking refuge in the middle of a now-ravaged path. When the queen passed through, wounded, none of the flame-touched healers dared to touch the frightening woman—knowing full well that any failure would lead to their death.
Amidst the queen's silent reception, the leader's only daughter broke through the crowd. She offered her life in exchange for the queen's forgiveness of her people....

The ruins had crumbled centuries before, its halls now either choked with rubble or flooded by the steady creep of water. Its arcane golems still survived, however, and served their long-dead creators in the eradication of common delvers. But she was far from common.

Let our vigil burn eternal, that none shall be forgotten. They to the last outshone the sun, knowing from the outset the end to that path.
But even as each fell into darkness, their sacrifice lived in ash and ember, spark and smoke. A faint hope, but one safe in its shadows.
And from that were new flames kindled, again and again.
Until a light was brought forth that needed no shade.
