250 EXTRAPLANAR ODDITIES frostbite (treat as exhausted); creatures that are protected against cold are allowed a Fortitude save (DC 25) to negate the effect. In addition, all creatures in the area take 3d6 points of cold damage plus 3d4 points of nonlethal damage; those that are protected against cold (only) are allowed a Fortitude save (DC 30) to halve the cold damage and negate the nonlethal damage. Creatures wearing metal armour immediately suffer 1d4 points of additional cold damage (no save). Any creature slain by a hoarfrost horn’s cold damage is frozen to the point of becoming a hoarfrost statue; the creature is no longer even flesh and blood as its dead body turns to ice and snow by the unbearable cold. A creature killed by a hoarfrost horn cannot be brought back to life except by effects such as miracle, true resurrection and wish. Hoarfrost Horn: 26,000 gp; 3 lb. Iron Ointment Liquid metal is possible even in the mortal plane, both molten (such as iron in a forge) and in natural form (such as quicksilver). Therefore, the metal known as iron ointment, a naturallyoccurring alloy of liquid metal that retains high resistance and durability even in thin layers of malleable matter, is not that strange an idea to most customers of Treasures From Beyond. However, even the wisest alchemists are surprised upon discovering this unique alloy can be safely applied to a living creature’s skin, granting it its metallic hardihood without hampering its ability to move, breathe or live comfortably. By applying iron ointment on his skin, a warrior receives the protection of metal armour, without any of its drawbacks. Iron ointment comes in 16-ounce jars and is one of the best sold articles at Treasures From Beyond. Iron ointment was discovered by Josephus Lurias, a sage and alchemist famed for his creation of an iron golem with the size, shape and perfect appearance of a pretty young woman, whom the sage employed as a bodyguard and, for a while, to show off as a beautiful companion at social gatherings. It was in fact while making some minor repairs to his she-golem that Lurias discovered the process to create and apply iron ointment, based on an alloy of extraplanar metals. As soon as he perfected the formula, Lurias widely sold and distributed it, making it an essential product for any merchant and alchemist with access to a source of the extraplanar metals required to make it. Kay has never revealed where she gets her iron ointment from, though she sells and stores plenty of the stuff. By covering his body with iron ointment, a character gains a +2 natural bonus to his armour class. This bonus does not stack with other natural armour bonuses, though it does stack with armour and shield bonuses. The bonus remains for 12 hours, after which the iron ointment dries and becomes brittle, falling off the character’s skin within minutes. As an additional feature, iron ointment does give the skin a metallic tinge, granting a +2 bonus on all Disguise checks made to appear as a statue. A single jar of iron ointment is enough to cover the body of a Medium creature for 12 hours. Applying more than one jar at the same time has no effect; it is better to wait until the first jar has dried off to apply the second. For all its benefits, iron ointment has its dangers as well. Anyone that uses more than three jars of iron ointment within the same week suffers one point of Constitution damage after the third usage, as the metal begins poisoning his bloodstream. Constitution points lost in this fashion cannot be recovered until the character spends a full week without using iron ointment. Iron Ointment (16-oz. jar): 600 gp; 1 lb. No-Sword This extremely unusual weapon resembles a blade-less sword handle; most of Kay’s customers believe she has it on display as some kind of souvenir and never ask about it. In fact, the blade of a no-sword is a sheet of extraplanar matter, as thin as to be virtually nonexistent.
251 EXTRAPLANAR ODDITIES Despite its useless appearance, a no-sword is one of the deadliest melee weapons in all the planes; its blade is so absolutely thin it can cut just about anything, regardless of its hardness or physical state. When a no-sword cuts a man, even the blood drops are sliced in two. A no-sword can run a ghost through without problems, or cleanly cut a waterfall in half. A no-sword can chop down a granite column or slice and dice the purest diamond. Those who do ask about the sword, then, invariably show more interest when they learn of its true properties; accordingly, they promptly lose such interest again when they learn the weapon’s price. A no-sword comes with a special sheath; as the weapon’s handle, this sheath is specially made to hold the weapon’s extraplanar blade. The sheath’s cost is included in the weapon’s. Some mystic warriors throughout the planes, such as samurai, see the ‘void’ – that is, a state of non-existence as the self becomes one with everything else – as the perfect goal of the mind and soul; a nonexistent sword, then, is the embodiment of all their ideals. These kinds of adventurers are usually willing to do anything to wield a no-sword and have a chance of mastering its use. A no-sword counts as an exotic weapon, as it is infinitely lighter than other melee weapons and so requires special training for the wielder to get accustomed to it. However, it is worth the effort. To begin with, a no-sword counts as a masterwork weapon, granting the wielder a +1 bonus to all attack rolls. Also, all attacks made with a no-sword count as touch attacks, regardless of the target. The only bonuses to armour class that count against a no-sword’s attack are size, Dexterity and force-based bonuses (such as the one gained from a mage armour spell). A no-sword always ignores any kind of damage reduction, be it magic, epic, adamantine, silver or any other, as well as the hardness of any object it strikes, unless said damage reduction or hardness is forcebased. Otherwise, a no-sword’s damage is never reduced against any creature, object or substance. A no-sword is perfectly capable of slicing even incorporeal creatures, as it is even more insubstantial than their bodies. A no-sword has no critical threat range, as all its attacks count as critical hits somehow. This fact is already calculated in the no-sword’s damage rating. As it has no substance or weight, it does not benefit from the wielder’s Strength; the wielder of a no-sword cannot apply his Strength bonus to damage. As it virtually does not exist, the blade of a no-sword cannot be sundered; however, its handle can. By the same token, the wielder of a no-sword can still be disarmed by making him release the handle. A no-sword’s handle has hardness 10 and 10 hit points. If the handle is destroyed, the no-sword’s blade dissipates into nothingness, as it has nothing to hold it onto reality. A broken no-sword cannot ever be repaired again. Wielding an invisible sword that can literally cut through anything is a very risky business; any character that rolls a natural 1 while fighting with a no-sword hits himself with it, automatically suffering the indicated damage. Only the special scabbard that comes with a nosword can hold it; any other kind of scabbard is burst to pieces as soon as the no-sword is sheathed in it.
