Shadewood

Shadewood is harvested from forests located touched by the shadow plane or in areas where great illusion magic have been cast. Its weight and texture are the same as normal wood, but its colors are grayscale with a high contrast between different shades of black and gray. There is a strange sense of altered reality when holding shadewood, as if it might be some elaborate illusion. Shadewood groves exist in the Darkwood of the Dytika Isles and in small woods in the Ashlands. Armour and weapons can be made with shadewood. Such items always seem to be illuminated poorly, as if in lighting one step darker. A shadewood item is invisible in darkness, even if perceived by a creature with Darkvision.

Weapon: When you make a weapon attack using a weapon or piece of ammunition made from shadewood, you gain a +1 bonus on your attack roll if the target of your attack is in an area of dim light (+2 in darkness). The weapon breaks after 3 attacks against anything that is made of flames or that can ignite wood (such as a fire elemental).

Armour: While wearing armour made from shadewood, you have advantage on Stealth Checks while in areas of dim light, and you are considered Invisible while in areas of darkness. The armour breaks after 3 times of taking 10 or more Fire damage or 30+ fire damage in one hit.

Shields: While wielding a shield made from shadewood, your AC increases by 1 while in areas of dim light (+2 in darkness). The shield breaks after 3 times of taking 10 or more Fire damage, or 30+ fire damage in one hit, while raised (such as when using the Shield Block martial technique).
