Campaign: The Lost Mine
This is a tarnished old versatile silver battleaxe, with dwarven runes inscribed on the axe head.
"Hew" is a +2 Silver Battleaxe, which provides a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls.
It also deals maximum damage when the wielder hits a plant creature or an object made of wood.
Some monsters that have immunity or resistance to non-magical weapons are susceptible
to silver weapons, and are thus vulnerable to "Hew".
Whoever carries the axe feels uneasy whenever he or she travels through a Forest.
History:
Design Notes:
Its cost is 700 gp.
- 500 gp for the battleaxe +2 (rare item) + 100 gp for the extra ability to do max damage to plants/wood,
and 100 gp to be plated in silver.
This is an item from the official D&D "Lost Mine" adventure. However, DM upgraded it to a battleaxe +2, instead of the original +1.
