[Swordtember] Day 17 - Stellar Remnant (Patreon)
Content
Birthed in the last gasp of a dying star, the raw material of stellar remnant was discovered inside condensed space dust that fell from the stars as a meteor. Breaking up upon colliding with the atmosphere (and an unlucky dragon), the meteor’s fragments have since been reforged as several weapons which can channel the power of their progenitor star, now a black hole, to exert overbearing amounts of gravitational force.
This weapon has 3 charges and regains all expended charges daily at dawn.
Event Horizon. As an action while holding this sword, you can spend 1 charge and speak its command word to exert the gravity of a black hole on your foes. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be pulled in a straight line to a space within 5 feet of you and have its speed reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn. If a creature being pulled towards you hits an obstacle or another creature, it stops moving.
---------------------------------------
Uncommon variant: Reduce the save DC to 13. The Event Horizon property doesn’t reduce a creature’s speed.
Very rare variant: Increase the save DC to 16. The Event Horizon property also deals 3d6 force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one, as the pressure of the gravity becomes strong enough to crack bones.
