    An iron ward diamond lends its toughness to armor, helping it absorb blows in combat. The least version of this augment crystal grants you damage reduction 1/- This damage reduction stacks with similar damage reduction granted by any other source. Once the iron ward diamond has prevented a total of 10 points of damage, it becomes inert until the following day. The iron ward diamond can be attached to armor of at least masterwork quality (but not a shield). Attaching or removing the iron ward diamond from a suit of armor is a move action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

    A crystal of life drinking bestows a small amount of life energy upon you each time you damage a living creature with the weapon to which the crystal is attached. Dealing non-lethal damage with the weapon doesn’t activate the crystal’s effect. Each time you deal damage to a living creature with the weapon to which this crystal is attached, you heal 1 point of damage. When the crystal has healed a total of 10 points of damage, it becomes inert until the following day. The crystal of life drinking can be attached to any weapon of at least masterwork quality. Attaching or removing the crystal of life drinking from a weapon is a move action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

    Potions and Oils

    Rings

    Rods

    Rod of Peldan
    The sceptre of office for the High Councillor of Mistledale, the black, mysterious Rod of Peldan, floats high in the air of the High Councillor's audience chamber, but this is rumoured to be just an illusion cast by the real rod that is concealed somewhere else.
    It is known that the High Councillor of Mistledale can call on the Rod of Peldan to defend him while he is sitting under it (or its image). Reports about the rod vary. Some swear it can entangle folk by shooting out a beam that creates an effect akin to Evard's black tentacles; others say it is simply a rod of lordly might.

    Wondrous Items

    Blood of Lathander
    The Blood of Lathander is a glowing piece of amber said to contain a few drops of the blood of the god locked away forever to aid the folk of Hap. The Blood floats about 30 feet off the ground near the ceiling of the chamber and emits a faint rosy glow that can blaze up fiercely when Lathander approves or is roused to notice or act upon something.

    Gloves of the Starry Sky

  • Price (item level): 1,100 gp (4th)
  • Body Slot: Hands
  • Caster Level: 3rd
  • Aura: Faint; (DC 15) evocation
  • Activation: - and standard (mental)
  • Weight: -
    These supple gloves are velvet black. In their darkness, stars seem to swim.
    While wearing gloves of the starry sky, you emit a bright silvery radiance equivalent to a light spell. You can douse or renew this light with a standard (mental) action.
    In addition, three times per day, you can activate these gloves and sacrifice a prepared spell or spell slot of 1st level or higher to use magic missile (as the spell), using your own caster level rather than that of the gloves. The missiles created by the gloves appear as a series of tiny falling stars.

    Mask of the Drow

  • Price (Item Level): priceless gift
  • Body Slot: Face
  • Caster Level: 3rd
  • Aura: Faint (DC17 - Transmutation)
  • Activation: standard action
  • Weight: 1 lb
    This darkwood ebon mask has been carved to resemble the features of a stern drow, complete with long white hair adorning its border.
    When placed over the face, the Mask of the Drow bonds with the wearer and melds into the skin, transforming the subject's physical appearance into that of a drow. This transformation is always on while the mask is worn.
    After the mask has been worn for 24 hours, the subject gains the ability to speak in elvish. For all effects related to race, the subject has "Elven Blood" and is considered an elf. As a result, they are just as vulnerable to special effects that affect elves, and they can use magic items that are only usable by elves.
    The subject's alignment is also concealed from all forms of divination as per an Undetectable Alignment spell, and the wearer gains the innate abilities of the drow. This allows the wearer to cast the following spell-like abilities as a standard action (using the caster level of the item, or the character level/HD of wearer, whichever is greater):
  • Dancing Lights 1/day
  • Darkness 1/day
  • Faerie Fire 1/day
    If the mask is removed, the subject immediately reverts to their normal appearance, and all special abilities (except for looking like a drow) are lost until worn again for another 24 hours.

    Lore:

  • First created by the elves during the early conflicts with their underdark cousins, the Mask of the Drow are used by elvish scouts and spies to travel and/or infiltrate drow society undetected. (DC 15 knowledge-history/bardic knowledge check)
  • Ellistrae's elvish followers use these masks to spread her worship amongst the drow of the underdark. (DC 15 knowledge-religion)
  • The Mask of the Drow will be presented to Kilzadi as a gift from Gwenect Moondark, during a special "bonding" ceremony, that marks Kilzadi as a Ruathar or "Elf-friend".
    Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, creator must be an elf, Alter Self, Undetectable Alignment, Darkness, Faerie Fire, Dancing Lights
    Cost to Create: not applicable

  • Body Slot: - (held)
  • Caster Level: 7th
  • Aura: Moderate; (DC 18) conjuration
  • Activation: standard (command)
  • Weight: 7 lbs
    One end of this pile of pungent-smelling intestines has been tied with an intricate knot.

    The command word for this Troll Gut Rope is “tummy stretch” when spoken in the giant tongue.
