MAGIC ARMOUR AND ARTIFACTS

LIGHT MAGIC

ARMOUR OF LIGHT

COST: 100

Made from magically enhanced electrum by the rune smiths of old (so Blades of Sharpness and Incision act as normal weapons against it), the Armour of Light counts as chainmail for movement purposes, but acts like plate armour in combat. In addition the wearer of this armour may automatically cast one 'Ring of Light' per day, without any risk of failure.

ELECTRUM ARMOUR

COST: 75

Armour made from electrum, an alloy of orichalcum and steel, is prized by all magic-users, as it is the only metal that does not interfere with magical operations. Electrum armour always comes in the form of a mail hauberk and counts as chainmail for movement but mail and plate for combat! It also completely negates the power of Blades of Sharpness. Electrum has a special history. In the mists of prehistory, the dwarfs discovered a special orc they named orichalcum. Orichalcum produced a metal that was extremely malleable and did not interfere with arcane magical energy. When the elven rune smiths received some of this orc from the dwarven city of Aurvangar, they started to experiment with its amazing properties. After years of research they discovered it could be alloyed with steel to produce a new metal they named electrum. Electrum is lighter than steel yet stronger. It also retains the amazing ability of orichalcum to focus magical energy instead of interfering with it. As a result, it is an invaluable material to all magic-users and in great demand. Because electrum was first forged by the elves, it is innately allied to the Light and unusable by the servants of the Dark. This is true even when dwarf rune smiths forge this miraculous metal.

HELM OF LIGHT

COST: 85

Forged by the elven rune smiths to further the cause of Light. This helm automatically inflicts a combat modifier of -5 and a morale modifier of -2 on any unit, character or monster the owner attacks, that are in the service of Darkness.

HELM OF TRUTH

COST: 45

Created in the mists of time by the high elves of lost Farlorn, the Helm of Truth enables its wearer to see through all glamours and illusions. A benefit the owner can pass on to any unit he is in direct control of.

HOLY RELIC

COST: 95

The owner of this artifact enjoys an extra 5% chance of casting any Divine spell of the Light or Equilibrium.

HORN OF DELIVERANCE

COST: 75

This horn can only be blown once per day. When blown it will give a morale modifier of +5 to all friendly units within 30 cm for two game turns.

MAGIC STAFF

COST: 95

The owner of this artifact enjoys an extra 5% chance of casting any Arcane spell of the Light or Equilibrium.
