Reckoning

Weapon

Legendary Requires Attunement by a Siverain Requires Attunement

This red-orange weaveblade crackles with wild electricity along its blade, and also on two smaller beams of arcane energy that form a crossguard. It thrums louder than a normal weaveblade.

Sentience. Reckoning is a sentient chaotic evil weapon with an Intelligence of 14, Wisdom of 16, and Charisma of 19. It has hearing and darkvision out to a range of 120 feet.
The weapon communicates telepathically with its wielder and can speak, read, and understand Common, Orcish, and Undercommon.

Personality. The flow ghost of an ancient Sith’ari Siverain inhabits Reckoning. The weapon speaks to its wielder in that long-deceased Siverain’s voice, whispering its dark impulses to its wielder and insisting that their power justifies whatever heinous acts they might commit.

  • You can speak, read, and write Orcish and Undercommon.

  • The weapon has 3 charges, and regains 1d3 charges daily at dawn. You can expend 1 charge to cast Cause Fear (save DC 13) from the weaveblade.
