Odin thrust the sword it into a tree and proclaimed that anyone who pulled it from the tree would receive the sword itself as a gift, and that none had ever borne a finer blade. Sigmund drew it, only for Odin to eventually break the blade after he had used it in several battles. The two halves were bequeathed to his son, Sigurd.\n\n_Gram_ was reforged by the dwarf Regin for Sigurd in order to slay Regin’s brother, the wizard-turned-dragon, Fafnir, and reclaim a cursed treasure. Sigurd proofed the blade on Regin’s own anvil, breaking the blade again, and then again after a second forging. Finally, on the third time, it split the anvil in half with a single stroke. Sigurd later killed Fafnir by hiding in a ditch and thrusting upwards into the drake’s unprotected belly. The ditch carried away most of the dragon’s burning, poisonous blood but _Gram_, as well as Sigrud’s arm up to the shoulder, were bathed in it, and a portion of that venomous malice remains in the sword. Though Sigurd’s eventual tragic end had more to do with a cursed ring he stole from the dragon’s hoard than _Gram_, it is nevertheless known as the Sword of Grief.", "rarity": "Legendary", "requires_attunement": "requires attunement", "document__slug": "a5e", "document__title": "Level Up Advanced 5e", "document__url": "https://a5esrd.com/a5esrd" }, { "slug": "hammer-of-thunderbolts-a5e", "name": "Hammer of Thunderbolts", "type": "Weapon", "desc": "You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic maul.

Holding it lifts your spirits.\n\nWhen you find this lantern, roll 2d6 – 2\\. The result is its current charges. While carrying it, \nyou can increase its current charges by sacrificing some of your own vitality. For each charge you add, your maximum hit dice are reduced by 1 and your current hit dice are reduced by the same amount (to a minimum of 0). The lantern can only hold a maximum of 10 charges at one time. If an effect would cause the lantern to expend more charges than it currently has, you immediately provide charges to meet the need. If you do not have enough hit dice to meet the cost, the effect fails.\n\nIf the lantern has 6 or more charges, the radius of its _bright light_ is doubled. If the lantern has 0 charges, it sheds no light. Charges can be expended in the following ways using your reaction (unless otherwise noted):\n\n* Allies in the lantern’s bright light can use their reaction to spend 1 charge to add 1d12 to an _attack roll_ , _ability check_ , or _saving throw_ after it’s rolled. You can use your own reaction to disallow this use.\n* When a creature in the lantern’s bright light is reduced to 0 hit points, you can expend 1 or more charges to roll 1d12 per charge expended. The creature is conscious with hit points equal to the result.\n* When a creature in the lantern’s bright light takes damage, you can project a shield over them. The damage is negated, and the lantern loses 1 charge per 10 damage negated (minimum 1).\n* When a creature in the lantern’s bright light is targeted by a spell or would be caught in the area of a spell, you can negate the spell’s effect on that creature. The lantern loses charges equal to the spell’s level.\n\nIf _hope’s final light_ is missing any charges at dawn, roll 1d8\\. On a 1, nothing happens. Otherwise, it regains all lost charges.\n\n_**Curse.**_ Hope’s final light is a dangerous burden.

Some historians believe its translation ends with ‘wounding wand’ while others claim it is ‘wounding twig’, similar to the word for magic staff (gambantein). Either way it is this weapon and this weapon only that can kill the golden rooster Víðópnir (which sits in the branches of Yggdrasil and may be tied to Ragnarök, or possibly be another name for Gullinkambi) so that its wing joints (the only things that will suffice) can be used to distract the dogs guarding the flame-encircled castle holding Menglöð, a maiden fated to be married to the hero Svipdagr. The runed weapon awaits within however, protected by the jötunn Sinmara (a _storm giant_ ) who will only exchange it for a tail feather from the golden rooster—that can only be harmed by the very same sword, creating a paradoxical task. Its forger and the owner of the chest that contains it can reveal the secrets to bypassing the 9 locks holding its prison closed, although Loki would only ever do so if a cunning price is attached...\n\nLÆVATEINN\n\nUntil you are attuned to this staff, it appears to be a rotting quarterstaff or battered longsword. After you have attuned to it however, runes glow along the length of the wood or the blade.\n\nThis staff can be wielded as a magic quarterstaff that grants a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. While wielding it, you can use a bonus action to transform it into a magic longsword or back.\n\nThe staff has 10 charges for the following properties. It regains 1d8+4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll a d20\\. On a 1, the staff loses its properties and becomes a nonmagical weapon (whichever form it is in when the last charge is expended).\n\nWhile it is in staff form, the runes grant access to magic.\n\n_**Spell Runes.**_ You can use an action to expend 1 or more of the staff’s charges to activate a rune and cast one of the following spells from it (spell save DC 18, +10 to hit with spell attacks): __hideous laughter_ (1 charge), _speak with animals_ (1 charge), _pass without trace_ (2 charges), _dispel magic_ (3 charges), _speak with plants_ (3 charges), __confusion_ (4 charges), __glibness_ (8 charges). You can also use an action to cast the __charm person , disguise self ,_ or __vicious mockery_ spells from the staff without using any charges.\n\nWhile it is in longsword form, the runes channel magic with less finesse and unleash lethal energies.\n\n_**Death Rune.**_ You can use a bonus action and 1 charge to activate this rune, causing shadows to flow out from the weapon for 1 minute. These shadows reduce _dim light_ in a 40-foot radius to _darkness_ , and bright light in a 20-foot radius to dim light. While the weapon is shadowed, it deals an extra 2d6 necrotic damage to any target it hits. The shadows last until you use a bonus action to speak the command word again, the duration expires, or until you drop the weapon.\n\n_**Flame Rune.**_ You can use a bonus action and 1 charge to activate this rune, causing flames to erupt from the weapon for 1 minute. These flames shed _bright light_ in a 40-foot radius and dim light for an additional 40 feet. While the weapon is ablaze, it deals an extra 2d6 fire damage to any target it hits.
