New item: Lesser Hammer of Dwur

Post by Buttmonkey »

Early in his career, the legendary dwarven hero Dwur bore his Lesser Hammer. It is a +1/+3 vs. humanoids weapon. If the Lesser Hammer is held by a dwarf, all charisma checks by the character are treated as prime.

Dwur set aside the Lesser Hammer in favor of more powerful weapons after his first resurrection. It was stored for many years in a shrine near his childhood home on Krag Mountain. However, it was stolen long ago by unknown thieves and remains lost despite all efforts to locate it. Any dwarf observing the Lesser Hammer in the possession of a non-dwarf is likely to take extremely hostile action to recover the hammer.

The hammer itself is a fierce-looking war hammer with numerous etchings on both the head and shaft depicting mutilated humanoids.

Nice, simple and not overpowered but great flavor and story!

Very nice my kind of MI.. but by all CHA checks did you mean against/to other dwarves? Or it gives that dwarf so much "confidence" it shows to all? (Not going into the string of what CHA really stands for...)
Wow, Another Natural One! You guys are a sink hole for luck. Stay away from my dice.

Prime for all checks, not just with dwarves.
