Magic Items: Implements of Bogardan

A man named Eignach Mac Uladh was a Lawful Cleric of Stella Solim, from the Isle of Bogardan in the Burning Isles, who lived some 900 years ago. He was a traveling blacksmith who served an army before being called into service of God by a Solimnite monk.

To that end, he created for himself an enchanted hammer and anvil.

He forswore edged weapons as Clerics still do today and took up his own humble hammer to fell evildoers. But Eignach also believed strongly in the cleansing power of fire. When he reached the rank of High Priest, he enchanted his hammer with the fire of the forge.

Magic Item: The Hammer of Bogardan

Warhammer +2. Enc: 150 cn. May only be wielded by a Paladin or Lawful Cleric. For others it is a -2 Cursed Warhammer.

When it hits, it deals 1d6 bludgeoning damage and 2 pips of fire damage and may light flammables.

Additionally, the head will produce flame like a torch on command.

But Eignach never got the enchantment quite right.

When thrown, it does not return to the caster's hand as a Dwarven Thrower would. However if the wielder chooses to stand still during the movement portion of a combat round, he can will the hammer to return to his hand.

If carried into battle, it's wielder cannot turn undead for 24 hours. 

Additionally, Eignach enchanted and consecrated the small anvil he carried in his travels. He would pray before this anvil shrine each morning while reciting his holy litanies. By doing so, he was able to strengthen his bond with God and cast more spells per day. However, the enchantment upon the anvil was imperfect. Though he worked it over and over, he never quite perfected it.

Magic Item: The Anvil of Bogardan

Enc: 750 cn. It is small enough to fit into a backpack but quite unwieldy. 

If a Lawful Cleric or Paladin incorporates the anvil into his prayers for spells, he may prepare one extra spell per day per spell level known. However, the character cannot cast all of the prepared spells.

Once all but one prepared spell of any given level has been cast, the last spell is lost from the caster's mind. Furthermore, that lost spell cannot be prepared the next day.

If more than one prepared spell in a given level is left uncast the next time the caster prays for spells, then one spell is lost at random from each such level prior to the process of spell prep.
