Introduction
As a DM for 3rd edition I decided it would
be fun to create a fantasy campaign within our
medieval world, and using the myths, legends,
occult history and other supernatural events of
our past as the fantasy and magical elements of
the historical campaign. I have wanted to cre-
ate several PDFs for sometime now, and one of
the first things I thought about was using some
of the elements of my own campaign world.
Inspired greatly by the first edition of the
Dungeon Masters Guide and its list of powerful
Artifacts and Relics, and with the advice of especially some of the treasure from the Age of retrieved for somebody else or to be destroyed.

The Age of Legends
(The Legendary Times
before proper history)
Aarons Rod
History/Description: Not only is this
one of the most ancient human artifacts in the
world, it also became the model for all other rod-
like devices created afterwards. Used for decades
by the first Cabbalist priest of the Israelites and
brother of Moses, Aarons Rod was eventually
placed within the Ark of the Covenant, until both
artifacts were eventually lost.
Special Properties: This powerful rod
has several functions for non-evil priests, with the
following rod-like properties combined into one
very powerful tool: Alertness, Cancellation,
Lordly Might (Except for the modified weapons:
a Light Mace of Smiting + 5 enchantment bonus,
a Flaming Long Sword with a + 3 enchantment
bonus, a Battle Axe which is a + 5 enchanted
weapon of Mighty Cleaving and a Long Spear
which is a
+ 3 weapon of Wounding), Negation, and
Rulership. The following feats are able to be used
as long as the rod is in their hands: Empower
Spell, Extend Spell, Extra Turning, Heighten Spell
and Maximize Spell. The Rod of Aaron has twice
the amount of charges as a normal rod, and once
all the charges have been used, they regenerate
themselves at a rate of 3 charges/ day
Weight: 8 lb.
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
Ark of the Covenant
History/Description: The most treas-
ured and powerful holy artifact of the
Israelites, the Ark of the Covenant is a treasure
almost anybody but the most noble of beings
will kill for. As destructive as it is holy, the
Ark was lost during the Babylonian sacking of
Jerusalem during the last great dynastic rule of
the Israelites. Whether it was stolen, hidden or
rumored to be destroyed (which obviously it
was not) is a great speculation to anybody who
may be pursuing the greatest of artifacts. The
Ark of the Covenant appears as a large, golden
box, with a pair of cherubims facing each
other, with a pair of wooden handles for trav-
eling and the golden chest contains the rem-
nants of the Ten Commandments of Moses,
sealed within it ( at one time, Aarons Rod was
contained in it as well).
Special Properties: Anybody who
touches the Ark itself, without the handles
must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 50)
or die instantly, and can only be brought back
with a True Resurrection, Miracle or Wish
spell. Furthermore, the weapon, though quite
destructive is essentially a Lawful Good relic
and any Evil being who attempts to use it
immediately activates a Gate spell (consider
cast by a 25th level ) which allows a large host
4 of 40
of powerful, Good Outsiders to immediately
attack and kill the Evil being and any other
non-Good figures in the vicinity. The group
will consist of 3d10 + 4 Lawful Good, Solars
(with maximum hit points) being led by 1-4
Archangels (Such as Michael, Gabriel, or
Raphael, which should be treated for the sake
of combat as Lesser Gods of the Seven
Heavens) If those who are using it are Neutral,
theres a 50% (only 25% if the character is
Lawful Neutral)of Divine Intervention, where
one of the may Archangels will warn the pos-
sessor to NEVER try and use it again, and keep
it hidden from mortal hands. Those who do
possesses it and are Good, must have a Priestly
character with them to operate the Ark, (either
a Cleric or a Paladin or Ranger high enough
level to cast spells) which then renders them
the supreme ability to do with their foes as they
want. They may cast the following spell-like
abilities by vocalizing the destruction of their
enemies, as if they were a 30th level caster:
Earthquake (at will), Incendiary Cloud (at
will), Horrid Wilting (at will), Power Word:
Kill (at will), Meteor Swarm (6/day), Storm of
Vengeance (at will), Fire Storm (at will) and
Implosion (at will). However, if the user does
anything which is not Good, or kills any Good
beings, even accidentally, with the Ark of the
Covenant, a Gate spell will activate and 1-4
Archangels will come down and take the Ark
of the Covenant away from the user, and hide
from mortal hands. Incidentally, the powers of
the Ark are rendered useless against any Good
Outsider.

Sword, a masterpiece of weapon craft, stolen
from him while he slept after creating the
mighty sword, now being carried aimlessly by
some mortal without the capacity to use the
weapon to its fullest function.
Special Properties: Upon picking up and
wielding this long sword, the wielder will real-
ize its unearthly craftsmanship immediately, as
it weighs no more then a common dagger, and
has a blue, slightly curved blade (the weapon
may be used proficiently by those who have
weapon focus/ specialization in long sword or
scimitar) of an unearthly material which always
shines with a faint blue glow, shedding light like
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
a normal torch. In most hands, the weapon acts
as a + 1 enchanted Long Sword which is light
enough to be wielded as a second-hand weapon.
Held in the hands of any Elf (Elf or
Half-Elven) or any other Sylvan creature (at
least as large as an Elf) the blades blue light
brightens with a permanent Daylight enchant-
ment and becomes a very dangerous weapon. In

mately failing in his pursuit. In death, suppos-
edly he is the judge of those who recently died.
All that is left of Gilgameshs existence now is
5 of 40
a bracelet, probably looted from his ancient
crypt centuries ago. A very simple looking
bracelet, not fit for a king, the Bracelet of
Gilgamesh is made of leather, interwoven with
a long dead and preserved tiny sea snake (The

dle was given to the Greek hero by the goddess
Athena to aid him against a dreaded Chimera,
with the magic bridle Bellerophon was able to
capture and subdue a pegasus, which aided him

Bellerophon grew arrogant, and wished to fly
to Mt. Olympus and greet the gods. Zeus
tossed Bellerophon off the flying horse, losing
it, and he lived the rest of his days a cripple.

5000 gp) and is capable of being fitted on any
mount its place on.

Special Properties: Once it is fitted on a
mount, the creature must make a Willpower sav-

The Golden Fleece
History/Description: Retrieved by the
Greek hero Jason and his Argonauts for King
Pelias of Iolcos, little is known of what has hap-
pened to this priceless golden ram hide in the
centuries since its abduction. In the High Middle
Ages, it was said that the Knight Templars may
have possessed the fleece as a piece of their eco-
nomic revenue, but this is mere speculation. In
1430, a Germanic knightly social order, The
Noble Order of the Golden Fleece was founded;
if they had any knowledge of its whereabouts it is
unknown. Those adventurers who might find the
Golden Fleece will realize upon appraising it,
that it truly is priceless and they could easily use
it as a bartering tool to the highest bidder for
valuable treasures, powerful magical items or
even a small kingdom!

Golden Fleece is a fairly impotent magic item,
with its minimal powers probably absorbed
from the many supernatural and occult figures

Scrying bonus to anybody within 10 of it.

Barbarian 2/day.
Weight: 300 lb.

acters who are human or dwarven with a

the Dead, and has a legendary reputation of leav-
ing the immortal lands of Sidhe long enough to

He has done this numerous times, usually in a

timely fashion while his Queen, Onagh, is away
from his presence. Rapidly pursuing mortal
women without witnesses, King Bheara despite

sash. The Sashling is light, but sturdy material
like silk, but much softer, which is green and has
King Fin Bhearas and Castle Nokmas heraldic
symbols, written in an ancient Elvish tongue.
Losing the Sashling is a terrible loss to the Sidhe

Ancient History

(1500 BC- 1 CE)
Avesta the Complete Holy
Book of Zoroaster
History/Description: During his conquest
of almost the entire known world, Alexander
the Great came to Persia, and tried to wipe out
the religion of Zoroastrianism. Alexander
killed as many of the religions priests and
scribes and meant to destroy the only complete
holy text of the religion, the Avesta. Later, after
its destruction, the few priests and scribes left
after his massacre tried penning what they
could remember from the old tome, completing
only about 1/3 of the previous holy text, this
fragmented copy would go on to become the
Geothos, a seriously fragmented copy of the
original tome which still exists among the
Zoroastrians. Unfortunately for Alexander, the
true Avesta was not destroyed, but taken and
hidden from enemies eyes, and is almost
always well guarded by those who wish to steal
the holy secrets within it. Avesta is actually a
huge scroll (30length), wrapped about a gold-
en scroll pin (about 2500 gp) with a mechanical
locking mechanism which can only be
unlocked by non-Evil aligned beings.
Special Properties: Once the complete
text of the Avesta is read, which is a week long,
undisturbed process, the reader will gain a per-

Alexander the
Greats Tower Shield
History/Description: The personal shield
of a man who conquered almost the entire
known world, this tower shield is a piece of
personal armor like nothing else seen in its
time, given to Alexander the Great after his
schooling with the philosopher Aristotle.
9 of 40
Supposedly, the secrets to the shields supernat-
ural (perhaps a Dwarven smith?) origins were
destroyed along with the Library of Alexandria.
Much like the sudden death of Alexander, those
who fought and struggled for leadership, lost
the Shield of Alexander, along with the land he
had conquered. The tower shield is 6 _ long,
and cannot be handled by dwarves or anything

Corpus Hermetica
History/Description: The first of the her-
metic human texts, this ancient tome was actu-
ally penned on a large volume of papyri by the
mysterious mystic known to his students as
Hermes Trismegistus, the Thrice Greatest. The
original copy of this tome was supposed to
have been stored at the Library of Alexandria
until it was completely destroyed in 640 CE.

from the mystic academics that previously
relied of its hermetic knowledge. The collect-
ed works are several huge papyrus scrolls,
which are held together by a long, golden han-
dle.

to read the book again, six months later with the
same DC check, they gain the ability to cast
spells as a 1st level mage, six months after that

Ancient History from the
Beginning of the Common Era to

The Blessed Armor
of St. Maurice
History/Description: Considered the first
Christian knight, St. Maurice was an Egyptian,
Roman legionnaire under Emperor Maximian
Herculius, and refused to make a sacrifice to
the emperor prior to battle. For his disobedi-
ence, Maximian had Maurice and six thousand
other Christian soldiers executed, thus mar-
tyring the young soldier. Immediately after his
death, Maurice was stripped of his weapons
and equipment (supposedly he carried other
holy relics of both Jesus and the Apostles), and
everything confiscated was brought back to
Rome. What was left was his body and armor,
the body of which were eventually taken and
given a proper ancient Christian burial, the
armor was kept as a treasured Christian relic of
war.

Maurice appears as Roman half-plate armor

Boudiccas Long Spear
History/Description: An ancient queen of
Roman occupied Ireland, Boudicca massed a
rebellion against the Roman legions after they
brutalized her daughters and sacked her king-
dom. Boudiccas Irish army took back her own
lands, and then attempted to conquer the sur-
rounding Roman territories. Eventually, the
Roman general Suetonius Paulinus brought a
large enough army of Roman centurions, they
beat down the army and attempted to capture
Boudicca. Rather then be a royal trophy for the
emperor, Boudicca chose suicide over humilia-
tion. After her defeat, her Irish kingdom gave
her a grand funeral ceremony and later buried
her in secrecy, supposedly somewhere near the
ancient structures of Stonehenge. A secret bur-
ial or not, Boudicca was a warrior, druid and
queen, favored by the Celtic deities, she who
owned several enchanted weapons, all of which
12 of 40
were once buried with her. One of which was
her long spear she used while fighting in her
chariot, and a war axe when fighting ground
troops.

Finger of Death, but with the touch of the
spearhead.

The Chi-Ro Shield of
Constantine
History/Description: As Emperor
Constantine prepared his legions for final battle
with Emperor Maxentius for sole rulership over
the Roman Empire, he looked to the skies for a
sign of victory, and saw the Christian cross

burning in the sky. Constantine then marked
the symbol on his shield, and then ordered his
army to do the same with all of their shields,
that day victory went to Constantine. From that
day forward, Constantine favored the Christian
religion and ended its persecution across the
Roman Empire, eventually leading to its domi-
nance across all of Europe. The Chi-Ro cross
Constantine adapted was an early version of the
modern crucifix and a common symbol used by
the early Christians, after his adaptation of
Christianity (which some historians believe
could have been just a brilliant political move,
considering the religions growing popularity);
Constantine had the symbol permanently
marked on his shield. The Chi-Ro Shield is a
Romanesque large, steel shield, supposedly
blessed by many of the bishops of Rome as
Constantine went from church to church, giv-
ing them his blessing. The bishops of Rome,
including Pope Melchiades, gave their holy
blessings to Emperor Constantine and his
embracement of their religion, which may be
one of the many reasons that the shield has
additional powers granted onto it.
Special Properties: The Chi-Ro Shield is
a + 4 large, steel shield which also offers a + 2
to all saving throws, and a + 1 bonus to all
Charisma oriented skill checks. As long as the
shield bearer is armed with the Chi-Ro Shield,
any weapon in their hands is engulfed in bright
flames and does an additional +1d6 fiery dam-
age (and an additional + 2d6 on a critical hit),
and is bright enough that it acts as a Daylight
spell with a radius of 90.

The Holy Grail
History/Description: The most wor-
shipped and legendary artifact of the Middle
Ages, the Holy Grail is something that once
found, will immediately attract the deadly
attention of greedy treasure hunters from the
entire known world. After the crucifixion of
Jesus of Nazareth, the grail cup from the last
supper was picked up by Joseph of Arimathea,
and taken to Europe, during the early persecu-
tion of Christians and resurfaced again during
the Age of Arthur.
Special Properties: The grail is a very
simple looking, clay cup, which always seems
to be half full of blood. Upon touching it, the
possessor must make a Willpower saving throw
(DC 18, if Evil aligned DC 35) or die immedi-
ately, if they live then they have been truly
blessed by the Holy Grail. The cups only pow-
ers can be activated by drinking the blood of
Jesus, which always seems to be half full. The
following mighty powers are granted when
somebody sips from this chalice, a +1 bonus to
all ability scores permanently to each individ-
ual who drinks from it once every 2 years.
Besides this ability, the cup can heal any ail-
ment (disease, charm, blindness, paralysis,
level drain, severed limbs, unnatural aging),

curse, insanity, geas or other cursed state placed
on an individual who sips from it, at will. This
ability, however, does not heal any hit point
damage nor can it raise the dead (it can howev-
er, be used on a recently dead corpse to prevent
it from an Undead life, after being killed by the
Undead). It does however have the following
powers, which can be used at will, as if by a

Evil, Greater Dispelling, and Hallow, Magic
Circle against Evil, and Purify Food and Water.

The Mystic Robe of
Simon Magus
History/Description: A legendary mage of
the first century, Simon Magus is often recog-
nized by the Catholic church as Christianitys
first heretic, labeled with the nickname Father
of Heresies, for his self proclamation as the
Great Power of God and a known Gnostic.
Simon Magus was a magician, who followed
around St. Peter and St. Paul during the height
of their influence, begging them both for the
secrets to their miraculous powers. Eventually,
Simon Magus would compete with the both of
them, in attempts to prove who had holier pow-
ers, what exactly was his fate is often reinter-
preted, but legends say he died in contest of
power with St. Peter, and dies by his own arro-
gance. Often considered a charlatan and
crooked mystic, Simon Magus always managed
to keep at least a small following of supporters,
who confiscated his mystic charms and fetishes
for themselves, namely his Mystic Robe which
he wore at all times. The Mystic Robe is a very
elaborate, red silk robe (something else consid-
ered too obnoxious to the humbler dressed St.
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
Peter and St. Paul), which has various hermetic
and alchemical symbols etched throughout the
design of the robe, obviously a robe any mystic
would want their hands on.
Special Properties: Anybody who dons
the robe, will have a + 1 to AC and all Saving
Throws, additionally, the Mystic Robe has a
two large pockets on the inside, which are
small, extra dimensional pockets much like a
Bag of Holding, which can each hold 150 lb.,
and a volume limit of 20 cubic feet. The
Mystic Robes of Simon Magus become an even
more powerful relic if donned by a Sorcerer or
Wizard. The mage gets an additional + 1 to AC
and saving throws and Elemental (Acid, Cold,
Electricity and Fire) Resistance (15). Besides
these abilities, the mage is able to cast a unique
Fireball or Lightning Bolt (each of which can
be used once a day) spell, that determines dam-
age with a 1d8 + 1 for each level of the mage.

The Relics of
the Twelve Apostles:
Some of the most reputed holy artifacts
of the middle ages are the various holy relics of
the Twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ. It would
be almost impossible to come across a cathe-
dral or abbey which didnt supposedly have a
holy relic representing one of the Twelve.
Though many of these holy relics are fraudu-
lent, often traded or sold to the gullible, the
Apostles indeed left behind powerful, holy
relics which have been discovered by various
relic hunters.
Of the many relics of the Twelve, they
each have individual features and powers, often
representing the individual Apostle, however
16 of 40
all of them have certain abilities included with-
in all of them (except the Coin Purse of Judas
Iscariot). Each of these powers handled as if
they were cast by a 20th level spellcaster:
Protection from Evil at all times to the posses-
sor, as well as complete immunity to any kind
of Fear attacks. Also the possessors of the
relics are able to remove or break any blind-
ness, curse, deafness, disease, enchantment,
geas, insanity, paralysis, petrification or quest
against somebody, at will. The relics also
gives their possessors the ability to Exorcise a
creature or object, saving a tortured soul from
possession or similar attacks possessing the
creature or its soul (ex. Trap the Soul, Demi-
Lich attacks), the possessor or antagonist must
make a magic DC vs. the relics power (20),
plus the level of the relic holder, doubled.
Finally, while possessing one of the relics of the
Apostles, the possessor is able to attack and
affect Astral and Ethereal creatures, exactly as
if they had the magical Ghost Touch weapon

importance, James the Apostle was also the half
brother of Jesus of Nazareth, and was the
Bishop of Jerusalem, during the first stages of
Christianity. St. James became a martyr when

stoned as a heretic, and then beaten to death

prayed for his attackers throughout the beating,

killing stroke.

ly confiscated as various holy items and his-
torical relics of the blossoming mystery cult
known as Christianity, ( Most likely near his
place of burial, which initially became St.
Peters Cathedral). Throughout the centuries
of Roman persecution and Barbarian hordes
sacking Rome the various relics have been
lost, misplaced, destroyed and hidden away
from the various churches of Rome; however
there are a few known artifacts that have been
known to exist within and outside of the con-
fines of the current Papal States, the most
powerful being his papal miter. The official
tradition of crowning the Pope with the cere-
monial Miter or Papal Tiara may have not
been customized for decades; however St.

and priests of the Christian mystery cult. This

various body parts much like a Vorpal
weapon, except it can either be the (1) head,

The Spear of Destiny
History/Description: The Holy Lance,
also known as the Spear of Loginus, the
Dolorous Stroke or the Bleeding Lance; was
the very spear which pierced Jesus by the
Roman centurion Loginus, while Jesus was
being crucified. Certainly one of the most pow-
erful weapons to exist, it has been used and
searched for by powerful soldiers and kings
alike. Supposedly it has been possessed by
Constantine, St. Maurice, Charlemagne, and
Frederick of Barbarossa. Legends also tell of
when it was wielded by the warrior Balin who
used it to help King Arthur consolidate his

Balin for using the Holy artifact for a destruc-
tive purpose, which is something that almost all
who wish to possess it fail to understand.

spear with a + 7 enchanted bonus and functions

enchanted Piercing Attack which causes an
opponent to lose 1 point from their Constitution
upon each hit, which can only be cured by a

point lost or a Heal spell. The Holy Lance also
causes an additional 2d10 points of damage vs.
all Undead, and 4d10 additional points against
all Evil Outsiders. The Spear of Destiny also
functions like a Heavy Lance when used while
mounted, and does double damage against all
opponents. However, anytime an opponent is
killed (Including superficial wounds, such as
with the Wounding ability or loss of
Constitution) with the spear (with the excep-

tionally they have a -10 to all attack, skill and

enchanted short sword of Grettir the Strong, a
legendary warrior-poet of ancient Iceland. A
tragic hero, Grettir Asmudson was exiled from
his society for murdering somebody due to his

tually be the end of Grettir the Strong. Though

The Necromonican
History/Description: The most dangerous
and evil of grimoires is not only a spell book,
but a history of Evil, and its continuous fight
against the forces of Good and the early and
divine races of man, gnome, dwarf and elf,
written in the first century of the common era
by Abdul Alhazred the Mad of Damascus.
Copies and petty forgeries float across the
known world; however the true copy reeks of
death, and the pages (almost 900 of them), are
written in blood, on the flesh of various human,
dwarf, halfling and eleven skins, representing
the authors hatred for the reigning races of the
world. The student of this book must read this
book, undisturbed for a month, either in an
ancient cemetery or desecrated churchyard,
with out any interruptions (the author pre-
scribes that several semi-intelligent undead or
weaker evil Outsiders make great tools to
assisting the reader while they try not to be dis-
turbed).
Special Properties: After reading this
book, the evil reader gains a + 4 to Intelligence
and Charisma, but loses -2 to Strength and
Constitution permanently, because whatever
unholy gifts the dark lords of the Nether realms
gave the reader, is very taxing on their physical
body. The reader also gains + 3 to Willpower,

27 of 40

but loses 1 from both Fortitude and Reflex
saving throws. The evil reader also gains + 6 in
ranks to Alchemy, Planar, Religion (Evil reli-
gions) and Arcane Knowledge skills,
Spellcraft and Scrying. Incidentally, if the
reader is good aligned, they must make a
Willpower (DC 21) saving throw or suffer from
an Insanity spell. The Necromonican also
grants great benefits to both Priestly and Mage
spell casters. If the reader is an evil cleric, they
gain the Domains of Death, Destruction, and
Evil. The Mage spell caster automatically
receives specialization in the schools of
Necromancy and Enchantment. Any type of
spell caster upon reading this book is able to
cast spells two levels higher then normal, and
can cast twice as many spells a day, as they
previously could. The book also contains all
Necromatic spells listed in the Players and
Mages handbooks. Besides these abilities, any
non-Good reader also has the following abili-
ties granted to them, as long as they possess the
book, as a 21st level spell caster: Protection
from Good (at will), Death Knell ( at will ),
Dispel Magic (at will), Fireball ( 1/day), Fly (
1/day ), Dream (1/day), Insect Plague (1/day),
Summon Monster IV (2/day, always evil ),
Summon Monster V (1/day, always evil ),

Monster IX (1/week) and Gate (1/week).

endary king of Dwarves, who was as great a
mage as he was a ruler; he guarded the

own favored magical tool and weapon when
need be, was his magical pick he used to find

ures. The Pick is considered a sacred artifact to

The Quill of Muhammad
History/Description: This small, but
divine quill pen was the very tool used by the
prophet Muhammad to write the Koran, as dic-
tated by the archangel Michael. It was lost long
before Muhammad died, as it was something
forgotten and not given much importance until
his death, and has been an object hunted for by
his ancestral family. The pen itself is always in
perfect condition and its feather quill is (if any-
one with a Knowledge: Planes skill will notice
with a DC 16 success roll) angelic in origins,
which is one of the contributing factors to its
enchantment.
28 of 40
Special Properties: Merely possessing the
quill grants a one time bonus of + 1 to
Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma perma-
nently, as well as an additional + 2 to these abil-

(1/day), True Seeing (at will), Divine Favor
(1/day), Prayer (1/day), Divination (2/day),

ture must make a Willpower saving throw (DC

hero of great cunning and strength, but more
important, a peasant who represents the impor-
tance of agriculture and the farmland, his memo-

King Arthur and his kingdom of Camelot, how-
ever the few that are said to exist are most cer-
tainly some of the most powerful artifacts of

The Age of the Crusades
The Holy Flail
Frederick Barbarossa
History/Description: Holy Roman
Emperor Frederick Barbarossa of Germany is
best known for his military campaigns to unite
many of the feuding Germanic terroritories, his
attempts to sack Rome and his legendary status
as one of the wielders of the Spear of Destiny.
The Spear of Destiny was eventually lost to
Frederick; supposedly he was cursed and lost it
for his attempted capture of the Papal States.
Obsessed with his loss, Frederick reconciled
with the current papal ruler, Pope Alexander III
and set out to lead the Third Crusade.
Realizing he may never set his hands upon the
Holy Lance, Frederick used every resource
available to create a new, more powerful holy
weapon to wield in the Holy Lands and to make
up for the lost holy weapon. Between his own
entourage of mystics and priest, and borrowing
the skills of various Eastern sages, Frederick
had armed himself with a new, enchanted heavy
flail. In hopes of rising moral of the Crusading
armies, and his own self-doubts, Frederick
Barbarossa proclaimed his Holy Flail more
mighty then any weapon forged, including the
Spear of Destiny. The next day he drowned in
the River Saleph off of Cilicia within Asia
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
Minor. The sudden death of Frederick
Barbarossa was considered a bad omen, espe-
cially for an army on its way to a Holy Crusade,
and Fredericks Holy Flail was immediately
discarded to the wilds.
Special Properties: The Holy Flail of
Frederick Barbarossa is a Heavy Flail with a +
4 enchantment bonus with the Ghost Touch
special ability, and does + 2d6 additional dam-
age vs. the Undead, Evil Outsiders, Giants,
Goblinoids and Orcs. Any critical hit done by
the weapon (18-20) is always a success.
Unfortunately, due to the selfish nature of
Fredericks attempt to create a holy weapon, as
well as his heretical proclamation before his
death, any time the weapon hits a Non-Evil
aligned being, the weapon does no damage to
the opponent, but instead is delivered to the
wielder of the Holy Flail (including critical
hits).
Weight: 12 lb.
The Assassins Dagger
History/Description: The Persian secret
order known as the Hashish am was founded
by Hassan-i-Sabbah, The Old Man of the
Mountain, in the 11th century as a fanatical
religious order known for its highly successful
political assassinations. Eventually the orders
30 of 40
reputation and power base grew too strong and
Saladin virtually decimated the entire order in
his conquest of the Arab world. The Assassins
had various ways of quietly dealing with their
enemies, strangulation and the dagger was their
favorite weapon of choice, before his own
death (of old age) Hassan-i-Sabbah and his
priestly-magis created a powerful weapon for
his favorite assassin ( generally whomever he
favored enough, to assume would live through
their often suicidal missions ) to guarantee suc-
cess. After Saladin purged his lands of the
Assassins, he supposedly took the infamous
dagger as a personal trophy of his success and
protection over their lands. The Assassins dag-
ger is a small, sleek dagger with a curved blade,
used for easy concealment, with the following
special abilities to further the assassins objec-
tive.
Special Properties: The Assassins
Dagger is an enchanted + 6 Dagger of Venom
(however, the Fort. Save is a DC 21, 3/day),
which is also a Keen, Dagger of Speed.

Attack of the Assassin prestige class. If the
character is already a rogue or Assassin, they
gain a + 4 to hit, and +2d6 additional damage to

er, change the Fortitude Save for their oppo-
nents to a base DC of 18.) Also the wielder
gains a + 5 bonus to Balance, Climb, Hide,
Move Silently, Disguise, Bluff and Tumble
skills, and may cast Darkness (at will), Change
Self (3/day) and Improved Invisibility ( 2/day).

The Chainmail of Hastings
History/Description: In 1066 William the
Conqueror and his Norman forces were victori-
ous at the Battle of Hastings, for the conquest of
what would evolve into England. William the
Conqueror like many of his knights wore chain-
mail into battle, and eventually put his personal
suit aside as a war trophy within Westminster
Abbey, once he was crowned King of England.
As a pious king, who sought out peace and unity
among his subjects and lands, the Pope gave
William his personal blessing, perhaps this can
be one of the many legendary reasons why
Williams armor is enchanted so. Others say that
William the Conqueror was given it as a celestial
gift by St. George, the patron saint of England, as
divine proof of Williams lordship over England.
The Chainmail of Hastings has been lost or
robbed and is considered a piece of stolen
English treasury, and those possessing will cer-
tainly be hunted down by English mercenaries.
The Chainmail of Hastings appears almost exact-
ly like another other suit of battle-worn suit of
chainmail, but simply by picking up the armor or
any kind of magical detection will reveal its
supernatural power.
Special Properties: The Chainmail of
Hastings has a + 6 protective enchantment to AC,
and additionally is very light. Thus, those wear-
ing it have a Maximum Dexterity Bonus of + 4,

vision, and turned away from his rich, former
life, and for years wandered throughout Europe,
preaching the word of God, and protecting and
healing the sick and meek. Eventually, he
formed the Franciscan Order, which was a
Christian order, whose order represented a hum-
ble and chaste life of poverty, which was com-
pletely opposite of the Catholic Church which
was increasingly becoming a corrupt monarchy.

simple looking robe appears to be like any other
ordinary robe seen throughout Europe by any
wandering monk.

throw vs. Willpower (DC 18), every time they
use a power, or become good aligned.

The Great Helm of King
Richard the Lionhearted
History/Description: This unique Great
Helm was the symbol of the European com-
manders and kings who personally lead all the
armies throughout the First and Second
Crusades, immediately after this masterpiece of
armory was forged; it was blessed by the Pope
and enchanted by the Byzantine emperors sages,
to recognize the helmet and the kings who wore
it. The last known owner of the Great Helm was
King Richard the Lionhearted of England, during
the Third Crusade. Throughout its history every
time the helm was brought back to European soil;
it would be blessed by what Pope was in the
Papal throne at the time. These priestly blessings
manifested in some of the protective enchant-
ments which are part of the helmets present abil-
ities. A known Templar enthusiast, King
Richards Crusading travelers were often the
Knight Templars, whom he favored, and suppos-
edly found the most powerful mystics available
to make the helmet an even more magical helmet
to protect King Richard in combat. The great
helm will be recognized by any metelsmith as a
superb and magical helm, crafted with adaman-
tine and mithral, the helmet also bears the per-
sonal crest of King Richard.

the feats, to allow their wielder proficiency.

with any weapon while on horseback, this abil-
ity stacks with other similar abilities (mounted
feats, cavalier prestige abilities), and finally
any weapon in hand while mounted is consid-
ered Keen (this ability too, stacks with other
similar feats or abilities).

101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
The Gloves of the Grand
Master of the Hospitallers
History/Description: The Order of the
Hospital of St. John the Baptist in Jerusalem
was founded around 1050 C.E. in Jerusalem, as
a place of refuge and healing for Christian pil-
grims to the Holy Land. The actions and pro-
tective vows of the Hospitallers were an inspi-
ration for a group of Crusader knights who
would eventually become the Knight Templars,
soon after their formation, the Hospitallers
became a military, as well as a religious order.
These gloves are actually a pair of leather
gauntlets, which have been passed down from
one grand master to the next grand master of
the Holy order, until the fall of Jerusalem, and
the Military Orders were forced to move their
32 of 40
headquarters to the island of Cyprus. The
gloves incidentally can only be used by those
who are not evil aligned.
Special Properties: Once these gloves are
fitted on, the wearer immediately gains several
Paladin-like abilities, such as Divine Grace,
Lay on Hands, Divine Health, Aura of Courage
and Remove Disease, as if they were a Paladin
of the same level. If the wearer is a Paladin,
then they can use their Lay on Hands ability a
number of extra times a day, equal to their
Charisma bonus, ONLY on other wounded peo-
ple and not themselves. They can however,
Smite Evil, a number of extra times a day, equal
to their current level. In addition, the gloves
have the following abilities: Healing Circle
(2/day), Heal (2/day), Regenerate (1/day),
Restoration (2/day), True Resurrection
(1/month).

The Hairshirt of St. Beckett
History/Description: A one time loyal
friend to King Henry II of England, Thomas of
Beckett, was politically placed as Archbishop
of Canterbury, to increase Henry IIs influence
over the Catholic Church in England. Upon
donning the clerical garments of Archbishop,
Beckett had a religious experience and sudden-
ly shifted his loyalty to the Church, instead of
Henry II. Becket paid for his religious devo-
tion, and was assassinated by soldiers of Henry
II, on church grounds; haunted with guilt Henry
II had himself flogged frequently by the clergy
for his actions. Beckets burial and martyrdom
caused pilgrimages throughout the Medieval
Age, even inspiring the Canterbury Tales of
Chaucer. While prepping his body for burial,

St. Becket was revealed to be wearing his com-
mon hairshirt representing his humble devotion
to the Church, an action not normally recog-
nized by most of the wealthy and noble bishops
of the time. The hairshirt became a holy relic,
which truly represented Beckets pious and
humble faith.
Special Properties: The Hairshirt appears
to be a very common, ragged and uncomfort-
able tunic, not fit for a peasant, but the moment
any Good aligned person dons the hairshirt the
purity of its former owner is gently felt. The
hairshirt gives the wearer a bonus of + 5 to AC
and Willpower saving throws, but also a 1 to
Constitution and Dexterity due to the rough and
uncomfortable nature of the shirt. The shirt
does however give the character a + 7 AC
bonus vs. any attacks of oppurtunity. The wear-
er is also surrounded with several spell-like
protective abilities: Circle of Protection from
Evil (at will), Protection from Undead (at will),
Shield Other (at will), Spell Resistance (3/day),
and Mass Heal (1/day).

The Alchemical Gunpowder
Rifle of St. Albert the Great
History/Description: Albert Magnus is
considered one of the greatest scientific minds
DC 18 ) or be completely destroyed; magical
gian, philosopher, scientist, herbalist, alchemist
and perhaps even a mage, who supposedly cre-
ated the Philosophers Stone and gunpowder
weapons, such as the cannon and pistol in
Western Europe. In creating the gunpowder
pistol and the cannon St. Albert first created an
enchanted prototype, some say that St. Alberts
33 of 40
first gunpowder weapon was actually a device
already created by Gnomish tinkerers and
alchemists from the Swiss Alps, merely
enhanced by St. Albert. The Alchemical
Gunpowder Rifle appears to be a small, primi-
tive cannon about 6 _ long, with a rifle-like
trigger and wooden butt.
Special Properties: Anybody is able to
hold and fire the weapon, but with a 12 mis-
sile penalty to hit. To operate the weapon effec-
tively a character will have to take a feat in
Exotic Weapons: Gunpowder Weapons. In the
hands of the trained, the weapon has a + 3
Missile bonus to hit, and is able to fire the
weapon every other round, while the untrained
can only fire it once, every three combat
rounds, due to reloading. The Alchemical
Gunpowder Rifle is a wicked weapon, which
ignores and potentially destroys any armor or
shield it hits. When fired at an opponent, the
Alchemical Gunpowder Rifle ignores any non-
magical armor or shield bonus to Armor Class
to hit, any magical armor must make a
Fortitude saving throw (light armor DC 15,
medium armor and shields 18, and heavy 21,
with a + 2 bonus, for each enchanted plus added
to the armor) to prevent the bullet from pene-
trating. Additionally, any non-magical armor
or shield hit by the weapon must make a
Fortitude saving throw ( DC 15, masterwork
armor can be destroyed as well unless it makes
a Fortitude save exactly like the DC check of
penetration, with an additional + 2 for each
magical property to the armor ( Resistance,
Absorption, etc.), or be destroyed, losing all
magical qualities (if the armor or shield is a
artifact, it has a base DC 50, + 2 for any

enchanted magical properties.) as if affected by
a Rod of Cancellation. Creatures with a natural
armor class will affected by the cannon, unless
they have augmented natural armor (such as
Damage Reduction or Invulnerability, then the
creature receives a + 2 Fortitude save for each
point of damage reduction or + 4 for each point
of invulnerability). When used in combat, the
weapons statistics are as follows: Damage: 2d6

Piercing, Weight: 150 lb., the weapon is con-
sidered large and must be used with two hands.
The weapons ammunition consists of master-
work sling bullets (costing five times the nor-
mal amount), and a concoction of gunpowder
(the components will cost 100 gp for an
alchemist with a personal lab, otherwise it is
500 gp) by an Alchemist (DC 15), each suc-
cessful roll produces 2d6 bullets, and takes one
day of preparation.

The Philosophers Stone
History/Description: The prized object
sought after by all alchemists, supposedly
either created or duplicated by Friar Albert
Magnus, the Philosophers Stone is a powerful
object that can be used by anybody, and thus
will be an object, many will hunt and kill for.
The Philosophers Stone is more gem then
stone, but with an appraisal value of only 100
gp, however the gem glistens with a magical
light revealing its enchantments. Special
Properties: Whoever may possess the
Philosophers Stone automatically gains a + 6
bonus to Alchemy, Knowledge: Aracana, and
Spellcraft. Additionally, the owner of the
Philosophers Stone may enchant objects as if
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
they had ALL the Item Creation Feats, at half
the XP and GP cost. If the possessor happens
to already have any of these feats, it costs them
no XP to create the specific enchanted objects.
The possessor also has the esoteric ability to
Detect and Read Magic, and Identify objects
exactly like the spells, at will. Furthermore, the
possessor gains the powerful ability to create
gold from base metals, as long as they can setup
is a unique quiver, which apparently seems
then 2000 gp worth of masterwork equipment)
and devote a lengthy amount of time to the task.
The alchemist can create coins of a higher
value then their worth, one copper piece can be
transformed into one silver piece, one silver
piece can become a gold piece, and one gold
piece can become the value of one platinum
piece. The process is lengthy, and the alchemist
can not be disturbed, but once transmuting
begins, the alchemist can transmute 2 coins an
hour.

Robin Hoods Quiver of
Enchanted Arrows
History/Description: The most legendary
archer, robber and freedom fighter of medieval
Europe, there is very little of his exploits which
need be discussed, the history and legends after
his death is another thing entirely. Everybody
knows on his deathbed, Robin Hood took his
favorite bow and shot a single arrow into the
air, and where it landed, Robin would be
buried. Afterwards, many stories speak of
Robin Hoods enemies and attempts at dese-
crating his grave (if they truly knew where it
was), some say his soul was cursed and he
haunted Sherwood Forest at night as the
34 of 40
undead. Regardless, his grave site was found
and looted, and thus his possessions that were
buried with him, have been found in one rob-
ber-knight hands or another since. Robin
Hoods Quiver of Enchanted Arrows, always
appears as an empty quiver, with Robin of
Locksleys family crest on it, followed by the
personal symbol of King Richard the
Lionhearted. The Quiver of Enchanted Arrows
empty, but when one reaches their hand into
they will instantly realize their hand is reaching
into a very small, pocket dimension, very simi-
lar to a Bag of Holding.
Special Properties: The Quiver of
Enchanted Arrows can actually hold up to 100
arrows within it, however every time a normal
arrow is placed into the quiver, upon retrieving
it, the arrow will always be an Arrow with a +
1 enchantment bonus. If the possessor has any
masterwork arrows in their possession, for
every 5 arrows they place into the quiver, they
will be able to replace them with one Arrow +
3. If the holder of Robin Hoods Quiver of
Enchanted Arrows is a Ranger, for every 25
masterwork arrows placed into the Quiver, they
may retrieve one Arrow of Slaying (DC 23) + 5
against the Rangers personal Natural Enemy of
their choice. The choice of which species of
their natural enemies can be determined upon
retrieving the Arrow of Slaying from the
quiver.
Weight: 3 lb.
Robin Hoods Strongbow

Robin Hoods magic quiver was looted from
his gravesite, so too was his Strongbow, a

weapon that his enemies knew only too well.

Strongbow is a Chaotic Good (+1d8 damage vs.
Lawful Evil or Lawful Neutral) Composite,
Longbow of Distance with a + 4 enchantment

Ranger or Arcane Archer, and in addition to its
other abilities, has a + 6 enchantment bonus, does
critical hits on a 18-20, and turns any arrow
nocked into the bow versus a Rangers Natural
Enemy into an Arrow of Slaying (DC 18).

The Scrying Mirror
of Friar Bacon
History/Description: Scientist and mage,
monk and alchemist, Roger Bacon was one of
the greatest minds of the Middle Ages, and con-
tributed to the future of theology, philosophy,
science, alchemy and magic; writing formulas
and creating enchantments available to anyone
who wanted to sharpen their academia. Friar
Bacon wrote several papers and books, and
crafted several magical items as contributions
to the world; however, there was one unique
item Bacon used personally throughout his
studies, a huge magical mirror, which he said
aided him with his scrying abilities. The mirror
is 7 long, and 3 wide, and is secured in silver
mithral frame, which had various holy names
of power and hermetic runes etched into it,
whomever comes across this Scrying Mirror
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
will realize that Friar Bacon used it for other
things besides scrying.
Special Properties: The Scrying Mirror as
a magical item is like a very powerful crystal
ball, which has many of the additional powers
of greater crystal balls, See Invisibility, Detect
Alignment, Detect Thoughts, True Seeing and
Telepathy all as if theyre used by an 18th level
spell caster. The user additionally receives a +
10 bonus to all scrying skill checks, and an
additional + 5 if they also cast the Scrying,
Greater Scrying, Legend and Lore or Vision
spells, while using the mirror. The possessor
additionally cannot be spied upon magically
and is immune to scrying, or other types of var-
ious magical detection spells, as long as they
are within 60 of the Scrying Mirror.
Additionally the Scrying Mirror works as a por-
tal, allowing the user to go virtually anywhere
they desire (including distant planets or
Planes). The user must first try and find the
place, whether they have been there or use the
mirror to find its location, then when the place
is appears in the mirror, the user may step
through to the location, with the portal staying
open one hour/ level of the use or until the user
goes back through the portal. While traveling
through the mirror, the possessor may carry as
much as they can carry on their persons, along
with anybody else who follows him through the
mirror, throughout the duration of the portal.
This ability can be extremely dangerous in
unfriendly environments, as anybody who finds
the portal can go through it as easily as the pos-
sessor did, entering the portal. Once on the
other side, those who have crossed it may close
the portal, leaving the old possessor left behind.

Guis Manual of Conduct of
Inquiry Concerning Heretical
Depravity
History/Description: If there was a name
which could be identified with the Holy
Inquisition in the late middle ages, that name
would have been Bernard Gui. A Dominican
monk, Gui spent almost a quarter century as an
Inquisitor, seeking out various individuals and
groups considered heretical by the Catholic
Church. Observing that future Inquisitors
would need guidance in their abilities to find
heretics and how they should conduct their
interrogation during the heretics trial. The
manual entitled The Conduct of Inquiry
Concerning Heretical Depravity is a huge
leather tome which contains the names of over
900 heretics that Bernard Gui had convicted. In
1324, Gui was given the title of Bishop of
Toulouse, once he was given this divine title,
Bernards various personal prayers and bless-
ings he made, may have contributed to the mag-
ical nature of this first draft of his manual,
which has been reproduced with utterly no
enchantments. Although the manual deals
almost solely with various heretical factions
who split from the church, and contains no anti-
witch documents, this early book of hunting
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
heresy is certainly an inspiration to later manu-
als such as the Malleus Maleficarum. Whoever
finds this manual must first read it and carry it
with them everywhere to gain any of its abili-
ties.
Special Properties: Once somebody reads
this book undisturbed for one week, the reader
permanently gains + 4 ranks in Knowledge:
Religion, and instantly learns the Abyssal,
Celestial, and Infernal languages, the reader
also has an additional + 5 bonus to Knowledge:
Religion and Scrying. The possessor is also
completely immune to and can see through any
Illusionary spell or spell-like effect, and can
Detect Evil and Chaos up to 120, at will.
Weight: 9 lb.
The Blade of the
Order of the Dragon
History/Description: This infamous Late
Medieval Romanian prince needs no introduc-
tion, Vlad Dracul IV of Walachia, commonly
known as Count Dracula, was the most power-
ful vampire known to ever exist. His familys
heraldic title Order of the Dragon comes from
the Romanian root word dracul, which means
devil in other tongues. The Blade of the
Order of the Dragon is an especially long,
black, wavy-bladed dagger with blasphemous
36 of 40
and Satanic inscriptions etched along the blade
and pommel, which Vlad had various evil spell
casters cast unholy powers on, before he used it
in the unholy ritual to grant himself undeath.
The Blade would probably be recognized by
any adventuring heroes (especially Paladins) or
Church Inquisitors, and it can be assumed they
will go to great lengths to try and destroy this
unholy weapon.
Special Properties: The Dagger is
extremely evil and any Good aligned character
that touches it instantly loses two points of
Constitution, any Neutral who touches it must
make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 18) to
avoid the same fate. In the hands of a non-
Good aligned being it is an Unholy, Dagger of
Wounding and Returning (30, instead of the
usual 10 range) + 5, which always deals an
additional + 1d4 damage to anybody it hits.
Against any Good-aligned being it touches, the
victim must make a Fortitude Saving Throw
(DC 18) or lose a Constitution point each time
the blade strikes them. The dagger also can
cast Darkness, Death Knell and Desecrate at
will. The worst power of the dagger however,
is that upon new ownership, the owner is
repeatingly asked if they wish for immortality
in the back of their heads. On the first day of
owning it, if the possessor wishes yes to the

harping question, the power is granted, much
like a Wish spell, the possessor will receive
immortality. If the possessor actually dies,
instead of dying, they will rise again immedi-
ately, with their same class abilities, and the
additional Vampire template, the character
however becomes Chaotic Evil. This power is
actually a very powerful curse and can only be
removed by a Miracle or Wish spell by a good
divine spell caster. If the wielder of the Dagger
does not answer yes, the dagger continues to
ask them every day, until they agree, lose it or
destroy it. Furthermore, if the character
agrees, even if they are neutral they will be
effected by any Alignment effecting spells ver-
sus Evil, and will be detected as Evil, because
the blade has such an evil presence.
Weight: 4 lb.
The Book of Sacred Magic of
Abra-Melin the Mage
History/Description: The Book of Sacred
Magic is a kabalistic grimoire of the late
medieval era, which deals specifically with the
conjuring and controlling of various Outsiders,
supposedly the author at one time summoned
an army of one thousand spirits to the aid of
Lord Frederick of Saxony.
Special Properties: Any mage-like spell
user who reads this book undisturbed for one
week, gains a + 3 bonus to their Spellcraft and
Planar Knowledge skill ranks. With the Sacred
Magic of Abra-Melin the spell caster gains the
feat Improved Familiar and as long as the pos-
sessor has this book, if their familiar dies, they
do not suffer the self-destructive effects of los-
ing a familiar (which means that if a familiar
does not suit the spell casters needs, a new
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
familiar may be in order, an act which would
not be acceptable to a Good aligned character).
The reader also gains the following spell-like
abilities: Summon Monster 1 (5/day), Summon
Natures Ally II (5/day), Summon Monster II
(3/day), Summon Natures Ally II (3/day),

The Head of Baphomet
History/Description: In 1307 when Pope
Clement V declared that the Knight Templars
were heretics, one of the many charges that
were brought against them was the worship of
a false idol, a mysterious being known only as
Baphomet. Legends say Baphomet may have
been a black cat, a bastardized spelling of
Muhammad or perhaps a skull. The Head of
Baphomet is indeed a skull, an almost giant-
sized skull, with long, goat-like horns protrud-
ing from its forehead and glowing embers
behind its black eye sockets.
Special Properties: This Unholy relic
reeks of evil, and all non-Evil creatures that
gaze upon it must make a Willpower save (DC
18) or fall under a Fear spell (caster level 18th).
Any non-Evil character that touches it must
make a willpower save (DC 15, caster level
37 of 40
18th) or be sent to the Ninth Plane of the Nine
Hells via a Plane Shift spell. Besides these ter-
rible powers bestowed on it, the head of
Baphomet grants the evil being + 2 Strength, +
4 to all Saving Throws, Spell Resistance (25),
Regenerate (3), and the following spell-like
abilities at a casting level of 18th level: Dispel
Magic ( at will ), Greater Dispelling Magic
(1/day), Protection from Good/Evil ( at will ),
Blasphemy (1/week), Symbol: Death (1/week),
Hopelessness (2/day), Pain (2/day), and Gate
(1/week). The final unholy ability of this
dreadful skull, is upon casting Gate, the evil
creature summons the evil Outsider Baphomet
itself to do their evil bidding, an Arch-Pit
Fiend. However, the being summoning
Baphomet must have Circle of Protection from
Evil cast on themselves, and must make a com-
bined bloody sacrifice of 15 HD of creatures to
Baphomet, after these two preparations
Baphomet will perform any evil task the caster
asks of him, for his limited time (1 week) on the
Prime Material Plane. If Baphomet engages in
combat, and begins losing, it will declare one of
its last actions by casting a Gate spell and sum-
mon a horde (2d4) of Pit Fiends to attack and
drag the evil conjuror with them back to the
Ninth Plane of the Nine Hells.

The Holy Tunic of
Jacque De Molay
History/Description: When the Order of the
Poor Knights of Solomons Temple first originat-
ed in 1118 at the end of the First Crusade, by
Hugh de Payan and several other French knights,
they formed the warrior-monk order known com-
monly as the Knight Templars. Upon being rec-
ognized as an official military order, the Templars
recognized the Pope as the only earthly authority
over their actions. The Templar Knights always
were recognized as armored knights who wore
long, white tunics with a ceremonial red cross
across the chest. Although they all shared a sim-
ilar tunic, the Grand Masters of the order were a
unique sacred tunic which was blessed and rep-
resented their holy leadership over the Christian
forces, until their fall from grace. The last
Templar Grand Master to wear this was Jacques
De Molay, who had it stripped from him, when
he was arrested, along with hundreds of other
Templar Knights for heresy on Friday, October
13th, 1307. Seven years later, after being impris-
oned in the Paris dungeons of King Philip IV,
Jacques De Molay was burned at the stake for
heresy by the order of the King Philip IV and
Pope Clement V. Demanding that he and the rest
of the Templar Order was falsely accused of
heresy (history says Philip IV wanted to attain the
vast Templar riches flowing through their French
temples), Jacques De Molay made a final curse
upon the French king and Popes heads, that if he
was innocent they would soon join him in death,
both men died within a year.
Special Properties: The white tunic appears
clean and unspoiled, despite the many wars it has
been through, and the moment a Good aligned
101 Legendary Treasures of Medieval Europe
person dons this tunic they gain the following
Paladin-like abilities: Divine Grace, Divine
Health, Aura of Courage (if the character is a
Paladin, their normal bonuses are doubled) and
immunity to all Enchantments and Charm spell/
attacks. The wearer also gains the feat of
Mounted Combat and has a + 1 to hit and dam-
age bonus, against all opponents. If a Paladin or
Cleric dons this tunic, they immediately gain the
feat Extra Turning, if they already have the feat,
double their ability per day. Furthermore, the
Cleric gains the ability Smite Evil (1/day), and
the Paladin can perform the ability a number of
extra times a day, equal to their Charisma bonus.

Scourge of the Black Death
History/Description: In the late middle
ages, one of the most terrifying natural phenom-
enons was the bubonic plague, generally known
as the Black Death, killing 1/3 of the entire
European population. Despite scholars eventual-
ly finding plague infested fleas being the source
for the Black Death, superstitious minds thought
that it was perhaps the Wrath of God or some
other supernatural power killing off the human
race. The Scourge of the Black Death could very
well be the best example of a supernatural killer
of the human race, the Scourge of the Black
Death is a mysterious weapon, with no known
origins, except that it seemed to be carried
throughout Europe exactly at the time of the
Black Death. The Scourge of the Black Deaths
appearance is like that of any other ordinary
scythe, until anybody approaching within 20 of
the weapon will realize its terrible abilities.
Special Properties: Anybody who comes
within 20 of the weapon must immediately make
39 of 40
a Fortitude saving throw (DC 18) or become
sickened with fever, and have a 9 to attack,
physical skill, and iniative roles, while in the
vicinity of the scythe. Once picked up, the wield-
er must make a Fortitude saving throw (21) or be
overcome with an especially deadly strain of the
bubonic plague withering and killing the wielder
instantly, after which the victim will rise again as
a Zombie 1-4 rounds later. If the wielder does
make their saving throw, they still are infected
with the deadly disease, but do not die from its
effects as long as they carry and wield the
Scourge of the Black Death as their primary
weapon. The diseases effect on the wielder is
actually a curse, not a disease (though Paladins
are immune to the effect), and can only be cured
by a successful Atonement spell (the divine spell-
caster will have to make a successful role against
the magic of the Scourge, exactly like they were
attempting to Dispel Evil Magic, DC 25). The
Scourge of the Black Death is a + 5 enchanted
Keen, Scythe, which does an additional + 1d4
points of damage to anything it hits Upon hitting
an opponent, they must make a Fortitude saving
throw (DC 21) or lose 3 points of Constitution
permanently, due to the weapons supernaturally
diseased blade. If any opponent dies from the
weapon, their corpse is overcome with a very
ghastly appearance and will rise again 1-4 rounds
later as the Undead, unless permanently
destroyed. The type of undead is determined by
the creatures Challenge Rating or Level:
Monsters with a challenge rating of 1-3, or char-
acters of 1-2 level rise back up as Zombies, chal-
lenge ratings 4-5, and characters 3-5 come back
