Item: Dragon's Tongue (Major)
This +3 major striking longspear was crafted by a renowned monster hunter, who designed the prototype from the bones and scales of a diabolic dragon. The drathyrican folds of an ancient dragon, the organ that generates their magical breath, are crucial to the operation of the spear. The mechanics of the weapon are largely based on an injection spear: when the safety is disengaged and a secondary lever is squeezed, it produces a magical effect like a dragon's breath from the hollow tip of the spear.
Activate—Breath of the Spear 2 (concentrate, manipulate) The dragon's tongue releases a burst of energy that manifests as a @Template[type:cone|distance:30] dealing 10d6 untyped damage with a DC 43 Basic Reflex save. You can't use this activation again for [[/r 1d4 #Recharge this activation]]{1d4 rounds}. The damage type matches the breath of the dragon the weapon was made from, and this activation has the corresponding trait.
Craft Requirements The initial raw materials must include the drathyrican folds of a dragon.
Critical Specialisation Effects
Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.
Spear: The weapon pierces the target, weakening its attacks. The target is clumsy 1 until the start of your next turn.
