Shadowpiercer
Item 23Unique Artifact Magical Mythic Source War of Immortals pg. 152Usage held in 1 hand;
Bulk 1
Base Weapon Spear
Muted, silvery moonlight gleams along the curved blade of this
+4 major striking ghost touch spear. Braided tassels of horsehair dangle from its sturdy haft, and archaic runes in Nidalese script shimmer along the weapon in the presence of shadow magic.
Shadowpiercer ignores
immunity and
resistance to precision damage of creatures with the
incorporeal or
shadow trait, and deals an additional 2d6 precision damage to such creatures. While wielding
Shadowpiercer, you gain a +2 status bonus to saving throws against
darkness and shadow effects; this bonus also applies to allies within 60 feet of you while you wield the spear.
If you are a worshipper of
Zon-Kuthon, you are
drained 4 and
enfeebled 4 while carrying or wielding
Shadowpiercer. If you use a darkness or shadow effect while carrying or wielding
Shadowpiercer, you become enfeebled 4; this condition’s value reduces by 1 at the start of each day you do not have physical contact with
Shadowpiercer.
Activate—Absorb Shadows [two-actions] (
concentrate,
healing,
manipulate,
occult);
Frequency once per day;
Effect You touch
Shadowpiercer to a
darkness or
shadow effect to siphon its energy and bolster yourself. You gain a number of temporary Hit Points equal to four times the effect’s
counteract rank. These temporary Hit Points last for 1 hour. In addition, if the effect is causing darkness, that darkness is automatically counteracted within 15 feet of you for as long as you have those temporary Hit Points. This doesn’t provide light—it merely restores the area to its natural illumination level.
Activate—Rebuff Gloom [reaction] (
concentrate,
occult);
Frequency You don’t currently have the
drained condition;
Trigger You or an ally within 60 feet is targeted by a
darkness or
shadow effect;
Effect Spend a
Mythic Point; the spear drains your vitality to
counteract the effect. You can attempt to counteract the effect (+46 modifier level, counteract rank 10). You can activate this effect without having a Mythic Point available but doing so makes you
drained 2.
Destruction Shadowpiercer simply disappears if a worshipper of
Zon-Kuthon casts a 10th-rank
darkness spell on it once a day for an entire month while it is unattended.
