Area: Lair of the Ice Witch items: Item ‘a petrified druid’ is type furniture, alignment 0, made of stone, has keywords ‘frozenstatue dark green druid petrified robe’. This item weighs 20 stones and 0 pebbles, and is valued at 2,750 gp. This level 10 item has the attributes: identified A petrified druid is in excellent condition. Neither Graph, nor Gonur, nor Unter, nor Vaugal possess the combined ambition, will, whim and might to free this man from his stone prison. Maradas will not release him from the earth, Talur will not thaw him, Ithrilis will not erode away the salient details of his life. This druid’s reliance upon and connection with the elements has gained him nothing, ultimately. He made his own way, and is solely responsible for his own life, such as it is. —- You focus your powers of observation on a petrified child: Item ‘a petrified child’ is type furniture, alignment 0, made of stone, has keywords ‘frozenstatue petrified child kidnapped lost’. This item weighs 20 stones and 0 pebbles, and is valued at 2,750 gp. This level 10 item has the attributes: identified A petrified child is in excellent condition. Stolen from home by some unfortunate lackeys, this child appears to have met the same fate that the kidnappers did. Rather than being traded for gold, or perhaps murdered if the inevitable rescue attempt went south, all of them appear to have met the same fate as everyone else here. —- You focus your powers of observation on a vial of gorgon’s blood: This item is beyond your power to identify further. Gorgon’s blood, when contained in the proper vessel, possesses unique and powerful powers. When shattered on a hard surface, anything living that it splashes onto will die instantly- however, anything that has died in the vicinity of the gorgon whose blood it is will revive themselves, given the proper circumstances, if blood from the shattered splashes onto the corpse. —- Item ‘the crossed tome of an evangelical Uath priest’ is type book, alignment 400, made of paper, has keywords ‘crossed holy tome evangelical priest uath’. This item weighs 0 stones and 40 pebbles, and is valued at 13,100 gp. This level 180 item has the attributes: blessed magic-resistant The crossed tome of an evangelical Uath priest is in excellent condition. *Your personality must be greater than or equal to 9 to use this item. *Your knowledge must be less than or equal to 22 to use this item. *Your pcc-mystical must be less than or equal to 99 to use this item. *This item may be repaired 5 times. Published by the prolific, well-known and frankly somewhat annoying missionaries of Uath based in Sigil, this tome represents the majority of the beliefs of the religion’s following. Belief in Uath, a deity that deals primarily with luck, redemption and laxity, is obviously a somewhat non- standard affair, with very few rigid structures or rituals. It is a happy religion, whose followers build places of gambling alongside and inside their places of worship. This tome, while holy, also espouses having fun, and if anyone were so inclined, could probably use this book’ teachings to recruit some new followers of their own. +++ the crossed tome of an evangelical Uath priest will, when used in the Proving Grounds, help its wearer admonish all NPCs on that level to become better individuals, and make them leave the Proving Grounds, leaving their possessions behind. —- Animated by the ice witch’s magic for unknown reasons, probably dwelling somewhere on the humor-cruel continuum, the various objects that populate the cave system are almost exclusively obtained from the travel packs, mounts and pockets of adventurers, wanderers, and lost survivors-cum-statues that she has petrified. This one is rapidly transforming back into its former self, never to rejoin this mortal coil. It is an unique approximately 4’7" tall. A rapidly-solidifying ruby is in good health. —- Item ‘the ringed Ruby of Ragradorg’ is type treasure, alignment 0, made of stone, has keywords ‘magical ruby ringed ragradorg gyrating energy’. This item weighs 0 stones and 0 pebbles, and is valued at 104,000 gp. This level 60 item has the attributes: no-dispel The ringed Ruby of Ragradorg is in excellent condition. Alters knowledge of ‘throwing’ by -30%. *Your saving-spell must be less than or equal to 30 to use this item. *Your age must be less than or equal to 21 to use this item. *This item may be repaired 5 times. *This item has a limit of [1] per character. Mystical and mysterious, the enchanted Ruby of Ragradorg is a fabled thing, although terming this one as such is something of a misnomer. Not the actual Ruby of Ragradorg, or even a facsimile thereof, this ringed Ruby of Ragradorg is a chip off of a cheap of the actual Ruby, hewn and ground down to a scale copy. It has magical powers, and strange, revolving bands that surround it and make it difficult to hold, and so it’s good enough to keep, even if it’s not authentic. +++ the ringed Ruby of Ragradorg has a chance, in combat, if its wielder’s opponent is wearing or holding an artifact, to do 75 pure damage and sap 75 sp to that opponent, at a cost of 250 stamina, with a frequency of 25% per round. —————- mobs: This ruby is humongous, so much so that it almost defies belief that it is a gemstone produced by natural means. It glints in the light, almost as if winking at you. Cut at ideal angles to produce a shape conducive to radiating the most light, this ruby is too good to believe, much less to possess. It is an unique approximately 4’7" tall. An animate ruby is in good health. —- Although relatively small, perhaps suitable for mounting on a half-elf’s cufflink, this diamond is very valuable, owed mostly to its deep blue hue. It has some visible imperfections, as though cut by a miner rather than a jewelsmith, but if it were taken to a professional, such inconsistencies could be ground out and its true value brought to bear. It is an unique approximately 4’7" tall. An animate diamond is in good health. —- Icicles clutch and twinkle as they shatter upon each other, falling off of her sheer dress. Snowflakes jostle out of her hair as the snakes writhe from the cold, which stay constantly active lest they freeze. Coldbloodedness doesn’t seem as though it would be much of advantage in the snow plains, although the ice witch is the only thing which has managed to survive, so perhaps that’s a poor guess. She is a gorgon approximately 6’11" tall. The gorgon animator has several minor scratches ‘The gorgon animator is immune to: summon charm poison disease light steal’ —- This wooden sword looks like a child’s plaything, dull and heavy and not particularly suitable for combat. It might be part of a swordmaster’s retinue, a practice sword primarily for building strength and training, but then again, it may just be a cheap toy for a young one. It is an unique approximately 4’7" tall. An animate sword is in good health. —- Written, translated, copied, published and bound by adherents of Uath, this tome is a copy of the original manuscript that is the de facto authority on all matters concerning the deity of luck. It is a famously confusing codex, but that which is legible and understandable is said to be amazingly inspirational. This produces many devout followers who have no idea what their religion is truly about, which might just be the most efficient way to build a faith. It is an unique approximately 4’9" tall. An animated tome is in good health. —- People near the northern pole will wear anything to keep warm, and this bit of armor, if it can even be called that, merely reinforces that stereotype. It doesn’t look like a helmet so much as a bundle of wires and metal fragments wrapped in rabbit fur. A salient question would be what it is used for, but the answer is probably a dissertation on crazy. And there isn’t time for that right now. It is an unique approximately 4’8" tall. An animate helmet is in good health. —- Small in size and hardly noticeable at all in its dark clothes that seem to shift to adapt to their surroundings, this thief has that glint in his eyes that tells you that he is up to no good. Its fey like manners makes you shudder as it hungrily gobbles down a full mug of blood, after which, wiping the remaining drops away with amused satisfaction. He is a fey approximately 4’7" tall. A thirsty thief is in good health. —- This ferocious-little thing is quite ugly.It checks your armor carefully carefully for signs of wings, as if hoping to discover a dracon. The gorgonling sees your weapon and merely laughs. It stares at your shoulders, and winces. It looks at you, hoping to see the glint of a sword’s edge. The gorgonling shudders, ironically freezing down here. The little thing looks up, scanning the skies for danger. The gorgonling hacks up a bit of poisonous fluid, threateningly. Chortling evilly, it searches for a holy man to abuse first. The gorgon shields itself from your light, hostile to it. It stares at your skull, as if daring you to display mental powers. Roving about, it puffs up its chest, as if displaying how tough and hardy it is. The gorgon glares at your light, damaged by its luminosity. The gorgon takes care to avoid the ice, not wanting to hit any melted pools. It checks you over, hoping to find a weapon blessed by Dira The gorgon checks you over quickly, looking for anything made of iron It checks you over, hoping to find a weapon made of wood. It checks you over, hoping to find a weapon made of silver. The gorgon glances whence it game, as though leery of its mother, and her talent for petrification. It sees your confidence with magical items, and can’t help but smirk. The gorgon looks around for any fey, not wanting to get bitten. It is a gorgon approximately 7’0" tall. —- Various individuals reside in the cave of the ice witch, most permanently, as statues posed in the exact positions they were in when she petrified them. Some have escaped, through whatever means, but not very many, and all of whom have been too frightened to return. Only one is actively escaping, this one, the one that is being unfrozen. Perhaps some information can be gleaned before the imminent escape is made? It is an unique approximately 4’9" tall. A slowly-thawing valkyrie is in good health. Animated by the ice witch’s magic for unknown reasons, probably dwelling somewhere on the humor-cruel continuum, the various objects that populate the cave system are almost exclusively obtained from the travel packs, mounts and pockets of adventurers, wanderers, and lost survivors-cum-statues that she has petrified. This one is rapidly transforming back into its former self, never to rejoin this mortal coil. It is an unique approximately 4’7" tall. A rapidly-solidifying ruby is in good health. |
