Glaive of Alphax
"Few are the Tir-Nâ-Bor Alchemists who really know the true nature of the liquid contained by those fabulous weapons. I am one of them and Death itself could not steal this secret from me..."
- Magnus the Mystic
Within the Glaive of Alphax there is a mysterious liquid. It seeps constantly along the Glaive, giving it a changing and disturbing aspect. This fabulous weapon has the proper of increase the strength of its bearer and the efficiency of his blows.
The Glaive's pommel holds only three doses of this liquid. It is up to the Alchemist to decide when to use them. They cannot be refilled during the game. When placing the dice in Hand-to-Hand Combat, the Alchemist can choose to use one or more doses at a time. Each dose gives him a bonus of 2 points in Strength until the end of the round. Once the last dose has been used up, the Glaive of Alpha becomes useless for the remainder of the game.
The Glaive of Alpha is an artifact reserved to the Alchemists of Tir-Nâ-Bor.
