Given here are all of the concoctions within I&A, along with the type
of Aetherite required to brew it and the typical cost to buy it; however, it is up to your
GM to decide how many (if any) vials of a given solution a seller has and whether or not
it can be bought anywhere else. Unless a concoction’s description says otherwise, it
must be drunk or injected in its entirety for its effects to be felt, which takes 3.5 seconds
to do if your DEX is <1. A single person can be under the influence of up to 2 concoctions
at once, including concoctions with instantaneous durations; if a 3rd one is imbibed, the drinker is
sickened for the next minute, at the end of
which they immediately spend 10 seconds throwing up and take 1d6 true damage. If a
concoction requires two or more types of Aetherite, it needs at least 1 pound of each
type to be brewed. To identify a concoction (including its strength and its effects) requires a successful
DR 15/18/22/25 Alchemy Supplies or Arcana check for weak/moderate/strong/exceptional
concoctions, though the GM may wish to modify this DR depending on the nature of the brew. A Partial Success on
this check will identify either the strength or the nature of the drink, but not both.
Aetherite of the given element need only be used to make the exceptional version of the given concoction;
for any weaker level of brew, Neutral Aetherite can be used. To determine the cost of a concoction, the prices
given will provide a good starting base, but as always, the price may increase or decrease depending on the exact
circumstances, i.e. according to supply and demand.
Elixirs
Aetherite. Space.
Description. A breathing elixir allows one to continue to safely draw breath
in situations wherein they otherwise wouldn’t, such as underwater, in an oxygen-less
environment, or in deadly gases, including Aether.
Description. A strange case of drink, the Elixir of Duality
split's the imbiber's psyche into two distinct halves, one embodying
their honesty, selflessness, virtues, and compassion for their fellow
Sentient, and the other solely comprised of their dishonesty,
selfishness, vices, and complete disregard for the all-around
well-being of others. Half of the time, one psyche takes control of
the victim, and during the other half, the other. A strong or
stronger Potion of Cure Disease will end the affliction and restore
the affected's mind, while a weaker Potion will only stave off the
transformation for 12 hours (weak) or 3 days (moderate).
Duration.Strong, permanent/until cured.
Price.Strong, 1000A.
Aetherite. Soul
Description. This elixir does not actively heal the consumer, but allows them
to feel as if they have not taken damage or been fatigued for a time. If consumed
while suffering from Health loss penalties, the drinker does not suffer from those
penalties for the duration. In addition, they become immune to fatigue damage for the
duration.
Description. An Elixir of Flight simply allows the user to fly at varying
speeds for varying lengths of time, both depending on the strength of the drink. The
flying speeds per strength level are given here: weak, 16m;
moderate, 20m; strong, 24m; exceptional, 30m.
Description. An Elixir of Fortune, as the name would imply, bestows good luck
upon the consumer. For the duration, you have advantage on all checks, attacks, and
saves. In addition, your M-DEF score is increased in proportion to the strength of
the elixir: weak, +1; moderate, +3; strong, +6;
exceptional, +10.
Description. This drink, a favorite of liars, swindlers, and charlatans the
world over, aids the consumer in all their dishonest efforts by granting them
advantage on their Beguilement checks for the duration.
Taking this while under the effects of an Elixir of Truth of lesser
strength will cancel out the Elixir of Truth’s effects; if the Elixir
of Truth is stronger, this serum has no effect; if they are of equal
strength, they cancel each other out.
Description. Liquid fire is a reddish-orange liquid that, when
exposed to air, ignites in a flame that is much more difficult to
extinguish than ordinary fire; though water will do the trick, the
subject must be completely engulfed, and other methods of putting the
inferno out are far less effective than normal. A weak Elixir of
Liquid Fire behaves much the same as a
molotov, with the difference that
if a creature takes final damage they have a 100% chance of being lit
on fire, and the final burn damage they take from being lit on fire
increases to 1d8. The damage this Elixir deals increases the stronger
the brew is by a factor of 1d6/1d8 per level of strength, e.g. a
strong Elixir of Liquid Fire deals 5d6 damage when ignited and
3d8 final burn damage at the start and end of each of the burning
creature’s turns.
Description. As opposed to the Elixir of Fortune, the Elixir of
Misfortune curses the consumer with poor luck, cursing them with
disadvantage on all checks, attacks, and saves. In addition, the
consumer’s M-DEF score is decreased in proportion to the strength of the
elixir: weak, -1; moderate, -3; strong, -6;
exceptional, -10.
Description. This concoction relieves the symptoms of one form of
madness, allowing the drinker to
not suffer from it for the duration. If the consumer suffers from more
than one form of madness, the GM
decides which form of madness is
suppressed. If the duration of the suppression is > the duration
of the madness, then it is cured.
Description. This truth serum will force a person to speak only the truth for
the duration, which varies according to the brew’s strength. There are ways around
this, such as lying by omission, giving the bare minimum amount of information,
simply not speaking, etc. Essentially, a clever mind can find ways to circumvent this
serum’s effects through technicalities and loopholes.
Taking this while under the effects of an Elixir of Lies of lesser
strength will cancel out the Elixir of Lies’ effects; if the Elixir of Lies is
stronger, this serum has no effect; if they are of equal strength, they cancel each
other out.
Description. Sought by Sentients feeling their age around the world, the
Elixir of Youth sheds years from the drinker like they might shed clothes, de-aging
them by a number of years depending on the strength of the brew: weak, 1d10
years; moderate, 2d10 years; strong, 3d10 years; exceptional,
5d10 years. A being that is reduced to <0 years is de-aged out of existence -
essentially, they are unborn.
Duration. A number of seconds equal to the number of years lost.
Poisons are special in that they are the only concoctions explicitly meant to
harm the consumer in one way or another. To combat these effects, the victim must
make a Fortitude save, the DR for which varies
depending on the brew’s strength. For simplicity’s sake, the Fortitude Save DR for
each strength of poison is given here: Weak: 14; moderate: 20;
strong: 30; exceptional: 40. The described effects assume the imbiber
failed the save; if they succeeded, the poison has no effect, unless they deal
poison damage, wherein like in all other instances, this damage is reduced by the
result of the victim's Fortitude save.
Aetherite. Light
Description. This poison causes the consumer to black out and be consumed with
a blind fury for the duration, causing them to attack the nearest creature in melee
until one of them is dead or the poison wears off. If there are no creatures in sight,
the victim sprints off in a random direction until they find someone to attack or the
poison wears off. The strain this poison puts on the victim’s body means that at the
end of the duration, they take an amount of fatigue damage equal to the number of
minutes they were under the poison’s influence.
Description. This poison causes the victim to feel as if their blood is on
fire, making them sickened, as well as
dealing an amount of poison damage at the end of the duration depending on the
strength of the poison: weak, 2d6; moderate, 4d6; strong, 6d8;
exceptional, 8d10.
Description. This poison causes the consumer to temporarily lose their mind,
rendering them sickened for the duration, as
well as unaware of anything that goes on around them.
Description. This poison cannot be cured by a Potion of Antitoxin,
but by an Elixir of Sanity. When imbibed, the victim suffers from one
form of madness for the duration.
Description. This solution exhausts the consumer, causing them to
take an amount of fatigue damage in proportion to the strength of the
brew: weak, 1d6; moderate, 2d8; strong, 6d8;
exceptional, 8d10.
Description. This surreal poison causes the victim to age a
number of years near-instantly, depending on the strength of the serum:
weak, 1d10 years; moderate, 2d10 years; strong,
3d10 years; exceptional, 5d10.
Duration. A number of seconds equal to the number of years aged.
Description. Favored by deceivers the world over, this poison causes the
victim to give the outward appearance of death, slowing their heartrate to a near
stand-still, chilling their body, paralyzing them, and placing them into a coma. Only
the poison wearing off or a Potion of Antitoxin will awaken them and restore them to
normal.
Description. Similar to Playdead, except much stronger, this poison has much
the same effect, except that it lasts much longer and is meant to take someone out
without killing them for an extended period of time. If Time Aetherite is used in the
brewing, the victim does not age while they are out.
Description. If already afflicted by a poison or venom, drinking this potion allows
the user to make an additional Fortitude
save against the affliction. An antitoxin of lesser strength will give a +2
(weak), +5 (moderate), or +10 (strong) bonus to the consumer’s
save; if the antitoxin is of equal strength, it gives advantage on the save; if the
antitoxin is of greater strength, the affliction is cured entirely. If the consumer is not
presently afflicted, the given bonus applies to any toxin ingested
within the next 24 hours.
Description. When drunk, the imbiber is cured of any disease
afflicting them appropriate to the strength of the brew. For especially
nasty diseases, such as cancer, it may take several imbibements before
the disease goes away for good.
Description. A Potion of Healing instantly restores varying amounts of Health
depending on the strength of the potion, given here: weak, 2d6; moderate,
4d8; strong, 6d8; exceptional, 8d10. The exceptional form of this potion
restores a singular lost appendage, such as a hand or an eye.
Description. This tincture instantly restores varying amounts of Mana depending on
the potion’s strength: weak, 2d6; moderate, 4d8; strong, 6d10;
exceptional, 100.
Description. This potion will bring the recently deceased back to the land of
the living at 1 Health, assuming their soul is willing and able. The weak version of
this potion will work on any who died within the last minute, the moderate version
will work on any deceased within the last hour, the strong version will work on any
who died within the last day, and the exceptional version will work on anyone who has
died within the last 6 days.
Description. A Temporary Health Potion gives the user a pool of temporary
Health that cannot be restored and lasts 24 hours or until used up. The amount
of temporary Health given by this potion depends on its strength: weak, 2d6; moderate,
4d8; strong, 6d8; exceptional, 8d10.
Description. This brew grants a pool of temporary Mana that the consumer
draws from before drawing from their own Mana pool. This temporary Mana lasts 24 hours and cannot be
restored. The amount of temporary Mana varies based on the potion’s strength: weak,
2d8; moderate, 4d10; strong, 6d12; exceptional, 10d12.
Enchants are powerful and usually very helpful items – unless the item in
question is cursed (for a list of example curses,
consult “Relic Curses” here). An enchant’s
description will say its effects, power level, the Aetherite used to make it, and how
it changes as its power level increases, if it does. Neutral Aetherite can be used to enchant items
up to 3rd level, but elementally-aligned Aetherite is needed for enchanting an item to
4th level or to make it an artifact. In these cases, only half of the required Aetherite
needs to be elementally-aligned, the rest can be Neutral.
Because the amount of possible enchanted items is practically infinite,
it would be impossible and impractical to attempt to list them all; instead, a few
items will be given at each power level for each category of enchant to give an
idea of what each type of item at each power level is like.
Attunement
All enchants must be attuned to in order for the user to gain their benefits and know their capabilities.
For enchants of 1st and 2nd level, they can be attuned to instantaneously; 3rd and
4th level enchants, on the other hand, require spending the length of a night's rest focused on
attuning to the item, with artifacts requiring a full day's rest to become attuned to. A person can be
attuned to up to 3 enchants at a time. Unattuning takes the same amount of time it took to attune, and only
one creature can be attuned to an enchant at a time.
Enchanted Item Costs
Determining the cost of an enchant is far easier than deciding the cost of a concoction; because so much
Aetherite is used to create them, simply doubling the cost of the amount of Aetherite used to enchant the
item provides a decent base to start with, and then the cost can be modified by the power level of the item
or the relative rarity of Aetherite at the seller’s discretion. Refer to the table below as a guide on
modifying an enchant’s cost by power level.
Enchant Cost by Power Level
Power Level
Cost Modification
1st Level
+50 Aeons
2nd Level
+500 Aeons
3rd Level
+2,500 Aeons
4th Level
+5,000 Aeons
Artifact
+10,000 Aeons
Destroying an Enchant
Non-artifact enchants are not particularly more durable than regular items, unless the nature of
their enchantment implies otherwise, such as with certain armors. Should an enchant be broken or damaged,
it will continue to function as intended, unless the damage was catastrophic. For artifacts,
although they are more difficult to destroy, it is not impossible; to destroy them, one need only assail
the item with overwhelming force and power, such as tossing it into an active volcano, smashing it with
extreme force repeatedly, or assault it with a variety of powerful and destructive spells.
Arcane Items
1st Level
Aetherite. Soul, Space, and Varies.
Description. This figurine, small enough to fit in the palm of a Sentient’s
hand, is in the shape of any creature of Small or smaller size that is not a
Sentient. Depending on the kind of creature, it may require an additional type of
Aetherite besides what is listed, e.g. a Fae would require Magic, a Scorched would
require Light, etc. (all Beasts can be made with just Soul and Space). At
the user’s command and after 3 seconds, the figurine transforms into a full-size
living version of the creature for 1 minute, during which time it is exceptionally
loyal to the user and obeys its commands to the best of its ability; its stats are
equal to the creature’s normal stats. It can do this once every 24 hours, starting
when it returns back to figurine form. The transformation can end early at the
user’s discretion or if the creature “dies”, though neither reduce the recharge time
of the figurine. When the transformation ends, the figurine reappears in the user’s
possession if the user is on the same plane, otherwise the figurine takes the creature's
place. The familiar retains all of its memories from every time it is used.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, the creature lasts for an hour. At 3rd level,
it lasts for one day and can be up to Medium size. At 4th level, it lasts for 6 days and
can be up to Big size. As an artifact, the creature remains for 30 days before its
transformation ends and can be up to Large size.
Aetherite. Magic.
Description. This strange hat can change its appearance over the course of 1 second.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, it completely changes all of the user’s clothes;
at 3rd level, this hat can also change the user’s physical appearance, though this
change is illusory and can be seen through with a successful DR 16 Perception check, or if a
creature attempts to touch a part of your body that isn't actually there.
Aetherite. Magic or Space.
Description. This cloak billows dramatically at the user’s discretion while
they are wearing it.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, this cloak becomes a prehensile part of
the user’s body while it is worn. At 3rd level, it gives them a flying speed
of 2m/sec. At 4th level, they are able to control the cloak even when they
are not wearing it, and its flying speed increases to 3m/sec. As an artifact, it becomes
a sapient being that is entirely loyal to the user and can communicate via gestures;
additionally, its flying speed increases to 4m/sec.
Aetherite. Magic.
Description. This single die rolls a number of the user’s choice every time it is rolled.
2nd Level
Aetherite. Space.
Description. Taking the appearance of an otherwise ordinary small bag, this
satchel always weighs only 1 pound whenever holding up to 100 pounds of material.
After reaching the 100th pound, the sack gives the appearance of being full and
rejects any more items the user may try to place into it. To retrieve an item, a
creature must take 3 seconds (independent of their DEX) to stick their hand in and think of the
object they wish to pull out. If the item is in the bag, it appears in the grabber’s hand;
otherwise, they know the item is not in the bag.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, the bag weighs 5 pounds and holds up to
500 pounds of material; at 4th level, it weighs 10 pounds and holds up to 1000
pounds of material.
Aetherite. Space.
Description. This garment raises the user’s AGI score by .5, up to 6.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, the cloak raises the user’s AGI score by 1; at 4th
level, it raises it by 2; as an artifact, it raises their AGI score by 3; none of
these increases can increase a user’s AGI score beyond 6.
Aetherite. Varies depending on the skill.
Description. Taking the form of any small, hand-held object of the creator’s
choice, this enchant increases the user’s proficiency in a single skill by 1, up to
6. Which skill varies depending on the type of Aetherite used to enchant it;
discuss with your GM which type of Aetherite would be appropriate for the skill you
want to increase proficiency in. As an example, Space Aetherite can be used to increase
proficiency with either STR skill, but you could use either Magic or Space for Climb. If the
skill in question is already at 6 proficiency, then it instead gives a +1 bonus to that skill.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, the stone increases proficiency in/bonus to the
skill by 2, up to 6. At 4th level, it increases proficiency/bonus by 3, up to 6. As
an artifact, it increases proficiency by 4, up to 6, and grants a bonus to checks
with that skill equal to the user's proficiency.
Aetherite. Magic, and Space.
Description. This cloak can change any of its superficial characteristics
(color, length, shimmer, etc.) over the course of 1 second (independent of the user's DEX).
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, this cloak also functions as
a 1st level Bag of Holding, allowing the user to store items
inside it without changing its weight, causing them to appear as
patches on the back of the cloak, which can easily be torn off by the
user and reform into their normal shape and size over 3 seconds (independent of the user's DEX).
At 4th level, it functions as a 2nd level Bag of Holding.
3rd Level
Aetherite. Space and Soul.
Description. A homunculus is an artificially constructed being, not unlike an
Automaton, except that a homunculus is a flesh-and-blood
creature constructed of clay and mud instead of metal and wires (though both do require Soul
Aetherite). Also like Automata, Homunculi in the form
of a Sentient will eventually Awaken, becoming sentient, thinking and feeling for themselves,
though this takes about 5d10 years; until then it essentially functions as a flesh golem with
just enough intelligence and agency to carry out tasks given to it by its creator. The creature,
whether Sentient-shaped or not, has the same stats as its natural counterpart. Homunculi in the
shape of small creatures are often referred to as familiars, especially when under the
ownership of an Arcanist. If a Homunculus’ owner dies, it
imprints onto the next Sentient it sees.
A Player-Character can in fact be a Homunculus, though this will not mechanically change
anything, as only Homunculi in the form of a Sentient will Awaken.
Higher Levels. At 4th level, the time it takes for a Homunculus to
awaken is reduced to 1d10 years. As an artifact, it becomes sentient immediately.
Aetherite. Space.
Description. What appears to be a circular piece of black felt
cloth 10cm in diameter is, in fact, much more. Over the course of 3 seconds (independent of the
user's DEX), the user can toss the cloth onto a surface, such as a floor or wall,
and create a circular hole 1 meter in diameter and 1 meter deep. If the
hole is placed on a surface that is < 1m thick, it
creates a passageway through the surface straight to the other side;
otherwise, it creates a normal pit. The user can then take 3 seconds (independent of their DEX)
to pull the hole off of the surface they placed it on, returning the
surface to its normal state and sealing the aperture once more. Any
objects or creatures inside the hole at this time are forcefully
ejected, taking 1d10 physical damage in the process. If the hole
is placed on a surface <1m wide, the size of the hole matches
the width of the surface it was placed on.
Higher Levels. At 4th level, the cloth is 20cm in
diameter, creates a hole 2m in diameter and 2m deep, and deals
2d10 damage when it ejects creatures and objects. As an artifact,
the cloth is 30cm in diameter, creates a hole 3m in diameter and depth,
and deals 3d12 damage when it ejects creatures and objects.
Aetherite. Varies.
Description. Much like the various gate-creating spells, a portal allows one to travel
from one place to another, including across planes. To construct a portal that sends one to
another plane, Aetherite of that plane's type must be used and another portal must be
constructed (or already exist) on the receiving end that also has the originating plane's
Aetherite type; for example, to construct a portal from the Plane of Fire to the Plane of
Illusion, the portal on the Plane of Fire must be built with Magic Aetherite and the portal on
the Plane of Magic must be built with Light Aetherite (a portal does not need to be constructed
solely of Aetherite, just have Aetherite incorporated into the building material). A single
portal can be built with multiple types of Aetherite and link to multiple other portals. For
portals that go to the Central Plane, any type of Aetherite can be used. Finally, portals
cannot be always-active, but they can be activated for up to a minute using any trigger of the
creator's desire, such as a speaking a specific command word/phrase near the portal, bringing a
specific object close to it, activating a specific sequence of glyphs on it, etc.
Higher Levels.4th level portals can be always active, or turned on/off using the
same methods as activating 3rd level portals.
4th Level
Aetherite. Soul and Space.
Description. A soul cage can be any container that fits within a 30x30x30 centimeter
space, and allows one to store a bit of their life essence – a piece of their soul – inside it,
ensuring their continued existence in the event their current body dies. A soul cage will not
supply a new body for the deceased, but simply stores their soul for an indefinite time until a
new unoccupied body can be supplied (or the cage is destroyed), such as a corpse, Homunculus,
or Automaton that has yet to Awaken. An Undead being, such
as a Skeleton or Zombie, does not qualify. In the event a corpse is to be used, it must have
died of a cause other than old age and have no missing organs; if both of these qualifications
have been met, then the power of the cage will restore the corpse to 1 Health, healing any
mortal wounds. The unoccupied body must be within 3m of the cage to be possessed, but can move
away from the jar once it has been possessed.
Higher Levels. As an artifact, a soul cage can create a... serviceable
new body for the user. This new body forms over the course of 1d12 days, and is
clearly not a normal Sentient body. In short, it has the appearance of being a
half-rotted corpse, and while it will have all the necessary appendages (two arms
and legs, two eyes, etc.), it will also have several chunks of flesh missing, such
as exposed bones and sinew, a missing nose, etc. The power of the cage keeps
the body alive, but only for so long; over the course of 1d12 months, the new body
decays beyond the point of usability. The user can choose between a body constructed
by the cage or possessing an unoccupied body.
Armors
Full suits of enchanted armor can take the form of any kind of armor.
1st Level
Aetherite. Space and possibly Time.
Description. This Torso armor grants a +1 bonus to the
user’s Armor or Dodge score. The armor requires Time Aetherite at 4th level
and higher if the bonus is being applied to the user's Dodge.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, the bonus increases to +2;
at 3rd level, it becomes +4; at 4th level, it becomes
+7; as an artifact, it becomes +10.
Aetherite. Space and Time.
Description. As well as functioning as regular boots, these boots also increase the user’s
speed by .25m/sec.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level these boots increase speed
by .5m/sec; 3rd level increases it by 1m/sec; 4th
level brings it up to 1.5m/sec; as an artifact, it increases
the user’s speed by 2m/sec.
Aetherite. Light.
Description. In addition to function as a regular helmet, this cowl also gives the user
infrared vision.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, the cowl grants the user
darkvision; 3rd level, this helm grants arcane
darkvision.
Aetherite. Space.
Description. This shield grants a +1 bonus to the user’s Worn Armor score, in addition
to the bonus it gives as a regular shield.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, the bonus increases to +2; at 3rd level, it
becomes +4; at 4th level, it becomes +7; as an artifact, it becomes +10.
2nd Level
Aetherite. Space and Soul.
Description. This Torso armor increases the user’s Swim proficiency by 1, up to 6; if
the user's Swim proficiency is already 6, it instead gives a +1 bonus to their Swim checks.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, this armor increases the user’s Swim
proficiency/bonus by 2, up to 6. At 4th level, it increases by 3, up to 6. As an
artifact, it increases the user's Swim proficiency to 6 if it wasn't already; if it was,
it instead gives a +6 bonus to their Swim checks.
Aetherite. Varies.
Description. This Torso armor grants the user resistance to any one
damage type except fatigue,
physical, or true. The damage type resisted depends on the Aetherite used. Higher Levels. At 3rd level, this armor grants resistance
to any two damage types that are
not fatigue, physical, or true. At 4th level this
armor grants resistance to any three
damage types that are not fatigue, physical,
or true. As an artifact,
this armor grants a +2 bonus to the user’s Worn Armor score and resistance
to any four damage types that are
not fatigue, physical, or true.
Aetherite. Space.
Description. In addition to functioning as normal boots, these boots allow the user to
walk normally on water; if the waters are rough, then they are considered difficult terrain.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, rough waters are no longer considered difficult terrain.
Aetherite. Magic or Space.
Description. In addition to functioning as normal gloves, these gloves allow the user to
climb up vertical and upside-down surfaces at half their walking speed without fear of falling.
Higher Levels. At 4th level, these gloves allow the user to climb up vertical and
upside-down surfaces at their full walking speed.
Aetherite. Space.
Description. In addition to functioning as a normal helmet, this helm allows the user to
breathe dangerous gases and vapors safely.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, it also allows one to breathe underwater.
3rd Level
Aetherite. Magic and Light.
Description. In addition to functioning as a normal helmet, this helmet protects the
user’s mind from outward assault, increasing their Willpower
score and bonus by 1.
Higher Levels. At 4th level, the user’s
Willpower score and bonus increases by 2 instead of 1.
As an artifact, the user’s
Willpower score and bonus increases by 3.
4th Level
Aetherite. Any.
Description. In addition to functioning as a normal shield, this shield grants resistance
to any damage dealt by spells and advantage on any save against
spells and their effects. If the element of the Aetherite used to make the shield is of
the opposing type as the spell, the spell deals no
damage against the user and the user gains double advantage on any
save(s) the spell might require.
Higher Levels. As an artifact, this shield grants total
immunity against all spells that cost <3 Mana and is able
to protect one creature of the same or smaller Size than the user that
is adjacent to them, granting that creature the benefits of the 4th
level version of this shield.
Weapons
Most every enchanted weapon can actually take the form of any weapon regardless
of the name, e.g. a Biting Blade does not need to be a blade but can be any weapon. This
does not mean that the weapon changes shape on command, just that when the GM decides to
place a weapon in their world, it can be any kind of weapon that they desire.
1st Level
Aetherite. Light.
Description. This weapon sheds bright light in a 10m radius and dim light
for another 10m, (de)activating at the user’s discretion.
Higher Levels. At 2nd level, it sheds 20m of bright and dim light;
at 3rd level it sheds 30m of bright and dim light; at 4th level,
50m of each; and as an artifact, it sheds 100m of
bright and dim light, causes all creatures within 10m of it except the user to be
blinded, and deals 1 extra damage die of burn damage.
2nd Level
Aetherite. Space.
Description. This weapon has 4 charges and can expend 1 charge
to teleport the user to any unoccupied space they can see within
5m using 1 second (independent of their DEX). It regains 1d4 charges at midnight.
Higher Levels. At 3rd level, the number of charges
increases to 6, the range increases to 10m, and the number of
charges regained becomes 1d4+1. At 4th level, the number of
charges increases to 8, the range of the teleport increases to
20m, and the number of charges regained becomes 1d6+2. As an
artifact, it has 12 charges, the range is 30m, and it
