Weirdstone
These innocuous-looking, fist-sized pieces of faceted glass are among the most highly sought-after items in all of Faerûn. Mages who like their privacy and evil beings who prefer to keep their plans secret are particularly fond of these items, and they often dispatch minions or adventurers to retrieve them.
When placed upon a flat surface and activated by mental command, a weirdstone floats about 3 feet into the air, glowing and chiming softly. While active, it blocks out all of the following within a 6-mile radius (including into the air above and the ground below).All astral and ethereal travel.
All divination (scrying) spells.
All conjuration (teleportation) spells.
Any spell-like, supernatural, or extraordinary abilities, psionic powers, or the like that mimic these effects.The weirdstone hampers only effects that manifest within its area. Spells or abilities activated within the weirdstone’s area that target an area outside its 6-mile radius are unaffected. For example, a wizard standing right next to a weirdstone could cast a scrying spell to spy on a creature more than 6 miles away, but she could not teleport across the room because the weirdstone blocks teleportation magic within its radius.
Strong abjuration; CL 20th; Craft Wondrous Item, dimensional lock, nondetection, creator must be at least 20th level; Price 230,000 gp.

Hammer of Thunderbolts
This +3 Large returning warhammer deals 4d6 points of damage on any hit. Further, if the wielder wears a belt of giant Strength and gauntlets of ogre power and he knows that the hammer is a hammer of thunderbolts (not just a +3 warhammer), the weapon can be used to full effect: It gains a total +5 enhancement bonus, allows all belt and gauntlet bonuses to stack (only when using this weapon), and strikes dead any giant upon whom it scores a hit (Fortitude DC 20 negates the death effect but not the damage).
When hurled, on a successful attack the hammer emits a great noise, like a clap of thunder, causing all creatures within 90 feet to be stunned for 1 round (Fortitude DC 15 negates). The hammer’s range increment is 30 feet.
Strong evocation, necromancy, and transmutation; CL 20th; Weight 15 lb.
-
Rod of Cancellation
This dreaded rod is a bane to magic items, for its touch drains an item of all magical properties. The item touched must make a DC 23 Will save to prevent the rod from draining it. If a creature is holding it at the time, then the item can use the holder’s Will save bonus in place of its own if the holder’s is better. In such cases, contact is made by making a melee touch attack roll. Upon draining an item, the rod itself becomes brittle and cannot be used again. Drained items are only restorable by wish or miracle. (If a sphere of annihilation and a rod of cancellation negate each other, nothing can restore either of them.)
Strong abjuration; CL 17th; Craft Rod, mage’s disjunction; Price 11,000 gp.

Lore:
Hargrim “Grey-Axe” Othosfind perhaps one of the most well known shield dwarves to come from Mithral Hall owner of these gauntlets was a hero to his people. He specialized in Great Axes, and to watch him work was something you never forgot. During the battle with the Drow at Garumn’s Gorge, Hygrim had layed waste to a field of Drow, but not before getting bested by a clever female Drow Sorcerer who had vanished him in a swirling vortex of magic. His location and what happened to him are unknown. The then Sixth King of Mithral Hall, Garumn Battlehammer, had commissioned his clerics to search for Hygrim but was never found. Occasionally rumors reach the Dwarves of Mithral Hall of remarkable feats on the battlefield that follows with a description of Hygrim’s Gauntlets, somehow these gauntlets have not made it home to Mithral Hall. -
Crossbow, Dwarven Mauler - Firetooth
This magical Great Crossbow’s, strung with enchanted giant hair, is forged with missiles that are more accurate and more powerful than traditional bolts. Firetooth generates +2 firebolts as ammunition, and will only fire these enchanted missiles, so there is no need for ammunition. Firetooth +3 is an enchanted great crossbow which does not require ammunition, but instead creates magical arrows/bolts of fire, which inflict 5 (3 fire dmg + 2 from enh bonus) points of damage. The crossbow itself adds 1d12 + 8 points of damage, it has a +5 to hit bonus (+3 from the crossbow, +2 from the bolts). The weight, speed factor and rate of fire are not improved.

Transference
(Player’s Handbook II)Universal
Level: Bard 1, Cleric 1, Druid 1, Sorcerer 1, Wizard 1,
Components: V, S, AF,
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: 10 ft.
Target: 10-ft.-radius burst centered on you
Duration: Permanent (see text)
Saving Throw: Will negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: NoWisps of ethereal light rise off the targeted creatures, consolidate into glowing orbs, and then streak toward the spellcaster, fusing with their body.
This spell allows you to store a transfer of XP from one or more creatures (maximum five), but only for the purpose of constructing an agreed upon magic item. The XP gained from other creatures through this spell is not counted toward attaining a new level. Targeted creatures must agree to the focus component that will be
used in creating the magic item before allowing this spell to be cast on them. Once the spell is cast, targeted creatures control how much XP to transfer. You cannot accept a transfer of more XP than is needed to construct the agreed upon magic item. All the requirements for transferring XP, compensating for XP, and sharing XP costs apply to the casting of this spell.If allowable changes are made that require more XP, you must provide that XP yourself or cast this spell again to store a transfer of more XP as needed. If allowable changes are made that require less XP, the difference is returned to the targeted creatures in proportionate amounts (as per their original contributions). If you start making a magic item that is not allowed by even one of the targeted creatures, all the transferred XP is immediately returned to those creatures. If you spend at least one day making the agreed upon magic item, the XP is consumed regardless of whether the magic item is completed or not. If you start working on a new magic item after spending at least one day making the agreed upon magic item, the XP is consumed and lost (as per the normal rules for creating magic items).
Focus: The raw material of agreed upon magic item (for example, a cloak, sword, or wand).

Talisman of Transference
Magic Item
(Player’s Handbook II)Price: 200 gp
Body Slot: —
Caster Level: 1st
Aura: Faint; Universal
Activation: Standard (touch)
Weight: 0.5 lb.A talisman of transference typically takes the shape of a bracer, periapt, or some other form of jewelry worn against the skin.
Activation: As a standard action, a worn talisman of transference is brought into contact with the raw material of an agreed upon magic item (for example, a cloak, sword, or wand) before construction begins, with the wearer speaking the word “attach” to create a link. The worn talisman of transference is then brought into contact with the creator after at least one day (8 hours) has been spent working on the magic item (but usually upon completion), speaking the word “infuse” to complete the effect. A talisman of transference can only form a connection with one raw material at a time. Speaking the word “attach” while in contact with a new raw material erases the old link.
Effect: A talisman of transference transfers XP from the wearer to the person who constructed the magic item, so long as the magic item was made from the original raw material to which this device was linked. The wearer can transfer the entire or partial amount, though the wearer cannot transfer more XP than was needed to construct the magic item. All the requirements for transferring XP, compensating for XP, and sharing XP costs apply to using this device.
If the wearer refuses to transfer XP for the magic item, the creator can destroy the magic item, thereby regaining any XP that was invested. The monetary investment, however, is still lost.
Lore: These devices were designed to protect creatures that commissioned magic items from creators who spent their transferred XP and did not finish the contract or disappeared with the completed product (Gather Information DC 20 or Knowledge [arcana] DC 10).
Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item , Transference .
Cost to Create: 100 gp, 16 XP, 1 day.

Advancement: 2–3 HD (Small)A dedicated wright is a homunculus created to carry out the process of item creation on behalf of its master. Unlike most homunculi, a dedicated wright does not go out on missions or accompany its master on adventures. Instead, it stays home working while its master adventures.
Combat
A dedicated wright shies away from combat. If threatened, it tries to hide someplace too confining for its attackers to follow.Item Creation (Su): A dedicated wright can perform the daily tasks related to item creation on behalf of its master. The master must meet (or emulate) all the prerequisites to create the desired item normally, and pays the gold and XP cost himself. The only cost a dedicated wright can help with is time. The master spends 1 hour initiating the process, channeling spell prerequisites into the dedicated wright, and paying the XP cost to make the item. He may then leave, allowing the wright to carry the process through to completion.
Construction
A dedicated wright is molded from clay, glazed with a mixture of arcane unguents and the creator’s blood, and fired in a kiln. The materials cost 100 gp. Creating the body requires a DC 14 Craft (pottery) check.A dedicated wright with more than 1 Hit Die can be created, but each additional Hit Die adds 2,000 gp to the cost to create.
Craft Construct, arcane eye, fabricate; Price — (never sold); Cost 2,100 gp + 160 XP.
