Weapon (maul), rare (requires attunement)
This weighty maul is cast entirely of platinum and meticulously engraved with heroic scenes from Hammond Hammerstrike I’s past. You gain a +1 to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. In darkness, the head of this hammer glows a brilliant silvery light, creating bright light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for an additional 30 feet. While the hammer is glowing, the engravings on its surface animate and act out scenes of mining, exploration, and battle.
Aura of Leadership. As an action, you can hold the hammer aloft to emit a 30-foot aura of emboldening radiance. Up to 6 creatures of your choice (including yourself) within the aura gain one Leadership die each, a d8. Within the next 10 minutes, a creature can roll their Leadership die and add the number rolled to any ability check, attack roll, or saving throw it makes. Each time a Leadership die is rolled, it decreases by one size (from a d8 to a d6 to a d4). Once a d4 Leadership die is rolled, it is lost. After this property of the hammer has been used, it cannot be used again until the next dawn.
The eponymous weapon of Lord Hammond Hammerstrike, and a treasured family heirloom. Recognized far and wide as the heraldic symbol of Sheercliff and the town’s once-mighty influence over the platinum trade. Cast of pure platinum by the town’s founder, Hammond Hammerstrike I. In the hands of its rightful owner, or one of his descendants, it is a formidable weapon; enchanted to guard the wielder and crush the skulls of those who oppose the ascendancy of the Hammerstrike dynasty.
