Arms of Chaos
Arms of Chaos
During Great Reckoning I, the now aligned Deities of Chaos each forged a sentient weapon using the life force of a greater fiend and gave the weapon to a chosen champion in Gaia. The First Great Reckoning flung these weapons across Gaia, burying them in mountains, forests, fields, and underground. Several of these weapons have been recovered, but a few have never been found and are highly sought-after. The weapons—or more properly, the fiends bound inside them—attract their own followings of mortal worshipers.
When an Arm of the Chaos is found, it grants its wielder some of the power of the Chaos Gods and the wisdom of the fiend within. The bound fiends know that their war was lost long ago, but they still desire to be used in battle, win victories, and spill blood in the hands of skilled warriors. As a weapon’s wielder becomes more powerful, so too does the weapon, which in turn is able to lend even more magic to the wielder. Whenever a weapon’s wielder dies, the weapon disappears and reappears elsewhere.

Mace of the Black Crown. This mace with a fiend’s head of ruby carries the boon of Asmodeus, capable of summoning devils for the wielder to command and burning hot enough to melt steel. The life force of an erinyes named Xartaza was used to forge the weapon.
