Villain Spotlight: Skrivena Moc
Added 2019-07-22 22:50:53 +0000 UTCUsually found deep within a dungeon near the site of a bloody battle, the blade Skrivena Moc seems at first to be a powerful weapon able to sear foes with fire and strike through even the toughest armor. What more it speaks to its wielders, offering advice and admiration in equal parts—but only to gain their trust, convincing them that their unnatural attachment to it is nothing to fear all the while it slowly consumes their very soul! This devious intelligent magic item and creature was written by Andrew Engelbrite and illustrated by Rachel Maduro.

This blade just attached itself to a Paladin after emerging from a beating heart submerged into a fountain, and the words "well hello there" in the Paladin's head provided an epic ending to a session! Thanks for your awesome content guys!

From the designer: "He's right on the money. Larry Niven is one of my favorite authors. I didn't think anybody else would catch that so fast."
