Item: Lumber Lord's Axe
This unassuming tool wouldn't look out of place on the belt of an industrious laborer. Grooves worn into the wooden handle over years of use and an irregularly sharpened blade give it the distinct impression of being cherished, and the potent scent of freshly chopped wood always clings to the axe's blade despite any attempt to clean it or remove the odor. A creature that holds or carries this +2 striking cold iron fungus and plant bane battle axe feels an obligation to tell the truth and receives a –4 status penalty to its attempts to Lie.
Activate 1 minute (Interact)
Frequency once per day
Effect You polish and sharpen the axe, after which its scent grows even more powerful and the axe's blade transforms into your choice of standard-grade adamantine or standard-grade dawnsilver for 1 hour; then after this duration, the woodcutter's axe reverts to cold iron.

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.
Axe: Choose one creature adjacent to the initial target and within reach. If its AC is lower than your attack roll result for the critical hit, you deal damage to that creature equal to the result of the weapon damage die you rolled (including extra dice for its striking rune, if any). This damage isn't doubled, and no bonuses or other additional dice apply.
