Greater Amulet of Mask




This Greater Amulet of Mask, a rare and mystical artifact from the distant world of Toril, is revered among those
who embrace the shadows and the art of subtlety. Crafted in homage to Mask, the enigmatic Lord of Shadows,
this amulet serves as a potent symbol of distinction and power among thieves, rogues, and the secret-bearers.
The amulet itself is an exquisite piece of craftsmanship, made from an enigmatic metal that defies identification,
suspended on a dark iron chain. Its centerpiece, a large emblem of a velvet mask, mesmerizingly black with hints
of purple, is not merely decorative but imbues the wearer with unparalleled stealth capabilities.

The philosophy of Mask, suggesting that wealth and secrets are the rightful prizes of those cunning and skilled
enough to claim them, is manifest in this amulet. It enhances the bearer's ability to move unseen and unheard,
weaving through the shadows with the blessing of the Lord of Shadows himself. This empowerment allows its
wearer to embody the essence of Mask's teachings: that subtlety and guile are paramount, and that what is taken
with skill and cunning is rightfully earned.

Bloodletter




Discover the Bloodletter, a bastard sword with a dark legacy, forged in the depths of brimstone fires and quenched
in the lifeblood of its creator. This blade is not merely a weapon; it is a harbinger of doom, a vessel of power that
drains the life force from its victims. Infamous for its role in the hands of the wicked, its very presence has been
known to inspire fear and despair. The Bloodletter is imbued with malevolent life-stealing energies, making it a
dreaded tool in the arsenal of those with the darkest of intents. However, its history is a cautionary tale; the fates
of its bearers often speak of a grim retribution, suggesting that the sword may indeed carry the weight of its own
curse. Embrace the Bloodletter if you dare, and wield the power to command the shadows, but be wary of the
shadows that might one day claim you in return.

smooth, effortless grace of a tiger on the prowl. This harmonious blend not only cloaks the wearer's presence,
making them as indiscernible as a breeze in the night but also assists in their silent passage over any ground. To

The Wonders of Physickal Mechanicks applied to Trapmaking, vol IV




This book beckons with the mystery of Lebuinus Nerva's legacy, igniting whispers of it being the master's lost
opus. As the saga of Nerva's disappearance post-750, amidst the shadow of The Requiem, continues to enchant,
this book emerges as a beacon for the avid and the learned. Its pages, dense with intricate diagrams and cryptic
annotations on magical trapcraft, mirror the complexity and depth that marked Nerva's earlier volumes. The
absence of an author's claim only deepens the enigma, yet the manuscript's brilliance is undeniable, offering a
treasure trove of knowledge to those few who can navigate its labyrinthine insights on arcane trapping. This book
stands as a testament to the art of trapmaking, a masterclass for connoisseurs of the craft, challenging and
rewarding in equal measure.
