Ancient Artifact.

[King Kill]

Something for the slightly middle levels is needed, I feel. This one is a template to apply to any mundane weapon.

Kinslaying

+1 Enhancement bonus.
+3 effective enhancement bonus against the wielder's own race.
+2d6 additional damage against the wielder's own race.
Very feint evil aura.

Creation: CL 8, Craft Magic Arms and Armour, Summon Monster I.
Value: As per the base weapon plus 8,300gp.
Effective enhancement is equivalent to a +2 weapon for the purposes of treasure.

Note: Treat "own race" to mean the broad catagories a ranger would use for his racial enemy - elves are all grouped together, goblinoids are all grouped together etc.[/u][/i][/b]

[Unknown Soldier]

i feel creative. i suppose its a mid level weapon, but is really a dragon slayer class specialization weapon. i have no idea what inspired this thing guys.


Dragonshard Soulblade

+2d6 extra damage ( fire-ruby, acid-emerald, cold-crystal, all three- dragonstone)
+2d8 Soul damage to dragon kind
+4 enchantment agaisnt dragonkind
+5 Fortitude Saves made to resist acid fire or cold, when installed with the correct gem.
+2 survival checks made to track dragons ( any size)
+2 spot checks made to see a dragon
+2 search checks to attempt detecting a dragons presence
Dragon Sense: senses the presense of a dragon within 200ft, in any direction.

this blade was created by the Dragonshard Guild of Dragon Hunters. there are only 20 such swords in existance, the blade connects to the weilders soul, possibly through the gem, possibly through an accident in creation, no one knows. but it is known that the weilder of any such sword, can use power from their soul, fear, rage, anger, despair, and emotion to cause excruciating damage to dragon kind. the wielder is more capable to track a dragon, and can sense when a dragon is near. the art to create such weapons was lost, long ago when the Dragonshard Guild was abolished and the members sent on their different ways. it is rumoured that anyman who tgrips the handle of such a blade is locked to it with his soul. the soul of every man that has died with one of these blades in his hand has been trapped within the jewel set into the hilt.

[Neonivek]

I guess Ill try my hand...

Slaadic Ring of Prismatic Powers

The Slaad is a race of chaotic beasts each one unique and almost a species in it of themselves, spreading chaos to all they tred. This does not however say that they do not have the capabilities to bring their abilities to the forge and their equipment has proven to be exactly like they are, chaotic. This ring has been tainted by order but still retain a grain of chaos inside it... Who knows the horrors of the truely chaos taint ring could bestoy and curse upon the wearer.

Upon donning the Ring the wearer must roll a 1d6 each day where each number represents a different attributes. (1=str, 2=dex, 3=con, 5=int, 5=wis, 6=cha) and then a 1d6 to descide the ammount.

[Unknown Soldier]

Hammer of Moradin


+3d6 extra physical damage when wielded by a dwarf ( of any subrace)
+30ft Darkvision
+2 Appraise skill
+2 craft skill
+6 to attack bonus
+12 to attack bonus ( when wielded by dwarves, negate the previous +6)
Power of Stone Bashing ( smashes through any stone object with easy )
Tremor Sense

some say this weapon is Truly the hammer Moradin used as he walked the Material Plane, others indicate that his hammer was shattered and its shards were used to give the dwarven races strength and encouragement; and many years after this hamppened the Dwarves trained "The Hammers of Moradin" their elite soldiers and equiped these mighty warriors with hammers with samll shards of the true hammer inside them. the decision is up to you.

[Zane]

Ok - first shot at a sword that I think would be neat, although not too powerful - should (amazingly enough) be about the same as a +4 weapon... Let me know if you agree with the 'numerical' assessment.

Rapier of Shadows
Enhancement bonus of +2
Hide skill +10
Wielder can cast Shadow Walk (6) once/day [cast, as if a 6th level wizard]
Usable only by a Shadowdancer [this restrictions does the overall cost...]

The blade of this rapier is jet black, and the hilt seems to be made normal - as the etchings along it seem to be little more than waving lines. When anyone that is not a shadowdancer (UMD check of 30, due to the nature of the blade) attempts to use it, the rapier feels and acts just like a steel rapier painted black would. When a shadowdancer wields it, the darkness of the blade's surface seems to swirl along the length of the blade, darkening that area around the wielder slightly and the etchings of the hilt feel like they slither slightly.

This blade was crafted by one that lives in the Shadow Plane, as payment to a long forgotten shadowdancer that had done a favor (a big one, obviously) for him. Since that time, the blade seems to have largely disappeared from history, with only occasional reappearances - which of course makes many to believe it is simply legend. Currently, it resides with a black dragon - who simply liked the look of the dark blade - awaiting able hands to wield it once more.

Re: User Created Weapons and Armour Thread

I'm not a big fan of the standard modifications/enchants so I came up with several of my own. It's only really the tip of the iceberg, but I don't have the exact details fleshed out.

Flare +2

On crit, deal an addition 2d6+2 fire damage to all creatures except the wielder (or in the direction of said person) within 5 feet of the target.
Stackable. Each additional application increases damage by 2d6 and range by 5 feet.


Flames +2

2 times a day, enchanted weapon may be activated to deal an addition 2d6+4 fire damage for 4 rounds. One minute cooldown.
If Flare enchant is active while Flames is active, add Flames's fire damage to Flares Aoe and increase the radius of Flare's enchanted by 5 feet. In addition, set target aflame on Reflex.
Each additional application of Flames only increases the number of times per day by 3.


Greater Flare +4

On crit, deal an addition 4d6+6 fire damage to all creatures except the wielder (or in the direction of said person) within 10 feet of the target.
Stackable. Each additional application increases damage by 4d6 and range by 10 feet.


Greater Flames +4

3 times a day, enchanted weapon may be activated to deal an addition 2d6+4 fire damage for 5 rounds. One minute cooldown.
If Flare or Greater Flare enchant is active while Greater Flames is active, add Flames's fire damage to Flares Aoe and increase the radius of Flare's enchanted by 10 feet. Set target aflame no Reflex. Set all units hit by fire damage aflame on Reflex.
Each additional application of Greater Flames only increases the number of times per day by 4.

Minor Sentience +3
Treat as a separate character that levels separately and partakes of the experience otherwise assigned to the character. Use the ratio of 1:15 to determine how much of the character experience must be given to enchanted item. So, if the character carries 5 items imbued with minor sentience, then the ratio would be 5:15, and the character would recieve 3/4 of his normal experience, while the remainder is divided equally between the sentience equipment. Cannot disenchant or remove without destruction of the item. Treat as a construct for all other purposes with an intelligence of 1.
Max Level: 6
Weapons: increase BAB by 1 and damage by one per level.
Armor: Increase AC by 1 every 4th level.
