Special Artifacts    

The Blue Crystal Staff   This item was given to Riverwind the Plainsman by the goddess Mishakal in Xak Tsaroth and was then presented to the Chieftain's Daughter Goldmoon. It is made from a single piece of crystal and has a bladed head with an unknown gem centered in it. This staff can only be used by someone of inherent good. It can help with healing, create light, remove curses, remove fear, and even raise the dead.

 

Dragonlances   For a long period of Krynn's history, these powerful weapons were though to be nothing more than myth. They are very real, however, and have been credited in turning he tide of the Third Dragon War and the War of the Lance. The Dragonlances are created from pure Dragonmetal, which is only found at the Monument of the Silver Dragon, with the assistance of the Hammer of Kharas and the Silver Arm of Ergoth. There are two types of dragonlances: the eight foot footman's lance and the sixteen foot mounted lance.

 

Frostreavers   These rare battleaxes were encountered by the companions during their trip to Icewall in search of a dragonorb. They are made from very dense ice and can not be used at temperatures above freezing. Only the Revered Clerics of the Ice Tribes have been able to successfully create frostreavers and it is even very difficult for them. It should be noted however, that once before the Cataclym a renegade mage almost succeeded in replicating them.

 

The Hammer of Kharas   The Hammer of Kharas is said to be the only hammer that is able to forge a dragonlance. It is a war hammer of incredable size and power. Only those of inherent good can weild it and then the hammer still controls the person more than the person controls the hammer. It can turn the undead, detect evil, provide immunity to fear and protection from missiles, and heal the injured. It is said that the dwarf who possesses the hammer will become the king of Thorbardin.

 

Nightbringer   The origin of this great mace is unknown but it was last weilded by the dragon highlord Verminaard during the War of the Lance. It can blind a target upon receiving the command "midnight" and can only be used by an evil being. When Verminaard was killed in Pax Tharkas, the mace was taken by the gully dwarf Sestun and has not been seen since.

 

The Staff Of Magius   This staff was presented to the legend Raistlin after his crippling completion of the Test in Wayreth. It was later presented to Palin after he completed his Test in the Tower of High Sorcery, which came as a chock to Dalamar, who had made a very real Test for palin about Raistlin. This staff has an unusually high durability and it is known that it protects its owner from harm as well as has the ability to cast light upon command. However, the full power of the staff is a mystery.

 

Wyrmslayer   This enchanted two-handed sword was accidently discovered by Tanis Half-Elven in the Sla-Mori during a battle with a giant slug. Tanis claims that the sword was given to him by the corpse of the great Qualinesti ruler Kith-Kanan. Wyrmslayer has the ability protect its user from the breath and the spells of dragonkind. Although it was temporarily lost when the dragon highlords attacked Tarsis, it was later returned to Tanis on his wedding to Laurana.

 

The Disks of Mishakal   These 160 disks were discovered in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth upon defeating the black dragon Khisanth. Engraved upon both sides of these disks are teachings of the Gods of Good. Any person with the proper devout attitude who reads these disks can become a cleric of a True God. Today they are kept in the Temple of Paladine in Palanthas and are studied by the priests there.

 

Medallions of Faith   On each medallion is the symbol of the God which it represents, be it Good or Evil. The only power that such a medallion possesses is the ability to reproduce itself for a new cleric. However, on occurance the medallions have been known to protect themselves.

 

The Silver Arm of Ergoth   The Silver Arm was created by dragon, elf, human, and dwarf during the original forging of the dragonlances. Its purpose was to guide the Hammer of Kharas to exact locations during the forging. The Silver Arm was given to the blacksmith Theros Ironfeld after the burning of Solace. It should be noted that Theros Ironfeld was a blacksmith of such high caliber that he was able to create the dragonlances with only the help of the Silver Arm and not the Hammer of Kharas.

 

Dragon Orbs   Of the five drgaon orbs that were originally created, none remain. Two were destroyed during the Lost Wars. One was broken by the Kender Tasselhoff Burrfoot and the Council of Whitestone, another at the High Clerist Tower, and the final was lost when Raistlin entered the Abyss from Skullcap. The orbs could only be used by a person of powerful will. They were able to control the evil dragons, and it is believed that they could also heal, cast light, and detect magic.
