Vampiric Edge: Naurnaith deals an additional 1d4 necrotic damage on a successful hit. This damage heals the wielder for an equal amount.
Aura of Dread: The presence of Naurnaith fills all non-Draihari creatures within 10 feet with a sense of unease. They have disadvantage on Wisdom saving throws.
Echoes of Carnage: Any creature that successfully defeats the wielder of Naurnaith experiences a horrifying vision of the countless Draihari sacrificed to forge the weapon. This can lead to nightmares, crippling fear, or a temporary compulsion to violence.
Curse (Optional):
If you choose to make Naurnaith cursed, here's an option:
Thirst for Blood: The wielder of Naurnaith gains a growing hunger for violence. For every week Naurnaith goes unused in combat, the wielder suffers disadvantage on Wisdom saving throws. On a failed save, they become increasingly violent and bloodthirsty, potentially lashing out at allies or innocents. This curse can be lifted through a powerful purification ritual involving a Valari holy site and a significant act of selflessness by the wielder.
The weapon's properties and curse offer interesting roleplaying opportunities. The player must weigh the power of Naurnaith against its corrupting influence. Do they seek to unlock its secrets and potentially redeem the weapon's legacy, or will they succumb to its bloodthirsty whispers?
