Sorcerer's Place Member Item Shop mod (temp frozen, waiting for IEEP2)

whee! I've been waiting for this mod to resurface.

Let the overpowered wepons commence creation! The members of Sorcerers Place demand blood to their names.

We have no flails! We need flails of course, A good weapon they are and painful

 

Maybe Tal could deal with weapons, and BTA with armors and other misc stuff...

 

We though need a option in the dialogue to buy Taluntain, the Almighty Bastard sword (the price of 500,000gp can't be used in the .itm file).

And i need a desc for Eze, the angst katana.

I have found the beta files, so i can start working soon.

 

Beren,

By Jaheira's Love, how do you come up with this stuff? I certainly hope with such a creative muse that you have put this talent to work in some form of writing.

Anyway, I approve hearily of the weapon, and the description. Truly, you have some form of inner sight into my character as a person. OK, I don't live in a cave waiting for visitors, but overall you hit the mark. Only I didn't know I was a stone giant, but now that you mention it, my portrait certainly COULD be a stone giant...

My ever so humble sugestion, if I may be so bold, would to be to include a slight intelligence and/or wisdom enhancement to the wielder. Afterall, a Mallet O' Thinking should make people better... well... thinkers.

Great work, and if you aren't already, become an author of fantasy books.

EDIT: Sorry, my bad - didn't see the +2 to intelligence... But I think Beren should write a book sometime after the mod is completed...

@ Aldeth

There is a +2 int bonus in that desc...
But i can't make a 2-handed war hammer

And i need Beren for my item descs and dialogs now, so don't tell him about starting to write a book. I'm sure that he would be great in it, but then i would be without a dialogue helper and i would need to find a new one.

The followers of Lathander whisper to one another, their voices hushed in fear whenever they discuss a disastrous incident that had befallen their faith a long time ago.

Once, the Morninglord vested much of his power into three mortals, raising them as mighty paladins in his service before sending them out into the world to destroy evil wherever they may find it. Such was their power that none could stand before their divinely-gifted might. During the next decade or so that the trio walked the land, no force of evil dared to rear its head. Vampires quailed in fear and fiends avoided the Material Plane, ignoring the calls of would-be diabolists, so frightened were they of the Morninglord's trio. Demi-liches destroyed themselves the moment they heard that the trio's eye had fallen on them. The faithful of the evil gods were all but wiped out. It was a golden age for the good-hearted folk of Faerun.

But then, all good things must come to an end. The mightiest of the trio fell from grace, spurning the greater good and justice in his lust for a seemingly innocent warrior-woman who was in fact, a erineyes agent of the Archdevil Asmodeus himself. In his bitterness, he turned his worship to the gods of evil, who were only too happy to heed his call. Bane, Myrkul and Bhaal vested their unholy power in him in place of the Morninglord's grace. He was now the mightiest Blackguard Faerun had ever seen.

He still had his two former-comrades to contend with, however. His paramour, the erineyes whispered into his ear the ways on how he might summon a champion of unsurpassed prowess to his cause and that he did. After a ritual in which a thousand elven children were sacrificed, a planar gateway opened through which a mysterious warrior stepped through. The warrior did not say much. He simply nodded and left the Blackguard's fortress to meet the incoming armies of the two paladins.

The armies of the paladins consisted of rank after rank of knights in shining armor, thousands of stout-hearted and pious pikemen and hundreds of clerics and righteous wizards. A single warrior from another plane of existence barred their way. He tore into their ranks, cutting down knight after knight and turning the pikemen into mutilated corpses. The spells of the clerics and wizards availed them not, nor did their magical protections have any effect. The warrior slew them all, and left none of those who were heading to attack the Blackguard alive.

The paladins came then, one astride an ancient silver dragon and the other astride an ancient gold dragon. The warrior cut down Lathander's champions and their mounts like so much rubbish. He brought their severed heads to the Blackguard and demanded that the planar gate be reopened so that he could leave. The Blackguard obliged him, only to have the warrior's shorter sword buried up to the hilt in his chest upon compliance. The warrior left then, leaving Faerun to recover from the devastation.

These swords reemerged many centuries later, though there were none that know how they came to be separated from the warrior's grasp. Perhaps he lives still and might come looking for the weapons with which he once wreaked such carnage...

These swords seem to be kara-turan in design but they are outlandishly peculiar even for weapons from the east. The katana is jet black down its entire length while the wakizashi's blade is a murky white in color. The mysterious warrior that wielded them had endowed his blades with no enchantments. Rather, such was the force of his character that bits of his being have been imprinted into these swords.

Christian St. Windsor never knew when to stop gambling. During a game of extraordinarily high stakes poker, St. Windsor had already lost his stake, his future income, all future income of his heirs, and of course, his shirt (he had already lost the matching Bronze Pantalettes some time ago). With nothing left to put into the pot versus Nagha the mage, he wagered his eternal soul, freely given. Nagha called his bet offering a sword of incredible power, uniquely crafted for St. Windsor. The odds (or, as it sounded when St. Windsor said it, 'D. Odds') were with him that day. He drew inside on the Dragon Flush (Lich-high), fairly, trumping Nagha's four Unicorns, which weren't come by quite as fairly as St. Windor's hand. While Nagha was willing to cheat at cards, she wouldn't welch on a bet, and D. Odds was created. Christian St. Windsor wielded his weapon proudly and went on to win, and gamble away, great fortune. But any gambler on a winning streak can tell you a losing streak, no matter 'D. Odds', can't be far behind. Christian's luck ran out when he hunted the great red dragon, Pozhaluysta, trying to pay off his gambling debts to the Shadow Thieves of Athkatla.

This "flail" appears to any onlooker to be a fox's tail attached to a chain, but in reality it is a magical disguise to fool enemies.

Rumour has it that this odd weapon was crafted for a crazed ranger. He was said to have been raised by a family of foxes in the wild for three of their generations, from a small babe to a child of twelve. At that age he witnessed the death of his whole family at the hands of a hunter, but he somehow was not seen. After seeing these violent deaths, he vowed to herself that he would one day pay back the odd furless creatures. As he grew up he trained and eventually used this weapon to kill innocent passers by in the forest. A sad tale indeed. However, he was eventually captured and shown the error of his ways. He was freed by the law because he was found to be not truly evil, just misguided. Afterwards he went on to use this weapon to peform good deeds in the forest, and became a protector of foxes.

How this weapon actually came to be is a mystery, but it appears to make the holder more cunning and dextrous, akin to a fox.

One question, what are you beta testing, whether the items are overpowered? Or whether they work?

 

Do they work. They are supposed to be as overpowered as the staff of the magi.


ALL THOSE WHO WANT TO BE BETA TESTERS PM ME!

I'll give it a test. My e-mail should be accessable to members.

Lol, Beren, a nice item, shame the description is all true

 

@Taza-Actually you can make a two-handed warhammer. I'll code it for you and e-mail it if you want the two-handed warhammer in your mod.

 

Naah.
I must know how to make the items i make.
Otherwise i would be completely lost in changing them.
