Guardian Shield

Magic shield (Shield) - Rare

Crafted by the legendary armor smiths. (Insert fitting tribe from your campaign here) This item appears like a simple bracer with a metal guard on it with a wire handle that attaches like rings on the fingers. When the hand is fully formed into a fist the shield activates and unfolds into a full buckler.

When holding a One handed weapon it can function like a normal shield but can be quickly discarded in favor of a two handed weapon.

When wielded with a Two handed weapon you can use your Reaction to activate, increasing your Armor Class by 2.

Twice per short rest you can make a Strenght Save trying to match, or exceed that of the attack roll, on a failed save your AC is only increased by 2. On a success your AC is increased by 5 and your opponent is knocked prone.

Talon Bow

Magic Weapon (longbow) - Artifact (Requires Attunement) This bow’s string carries magical properties that can stun or shock its targets, and summon beasts with the same powers. The Talon Bow has the following properties:

• You have a +4 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
• Talon Bow deals 1d12 piercing damage.
• This weapon cannot be broken by any known means. Additionally, if it would be targeted by an effect that would destroy a weapon, such as a Rust Monster's Rust Metal trait or Antennae action, it instead ignores it.
• Your attacks have additional effects based on your active bowstring enchantment:

Bowstring Enchantments.

The Talon Bowstring carries two enchantments, The Light of Alfheim, and Hræzlyr’s Breath. Only one Bowstring enchantment is active at a time, you can change the active enchantment as a bonus action.

• Light of Alfheim

  When a creature is hit by two or more arrows loose from your bow in one turn, it must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or become stunned until the start of your next turn.

  Hræzlyr’s Breath

  When a creature is hit by an arrow loosed from your bow, it takes 1d10 lightning damage

Runic Summons.

In addition to the enchantment bowstring, the Talon Bow can be imbued with summoning runes. Runes can be found as common magic items. While they don’t have any power on their own, each rune can add a unique summon that the wielder of the Talon Bow can use. One summoning rune can be imbued with the bow at a time, and they can be switched over the period of a short rest.

As an action you can lose an arrow to enact a runic summon, once a summon has been used, the wielder cannot use it or another summon until they finish a short or long rest. Runic summons that require the target to make a save have a DC of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity modifier. Runic summons that deal damage also apply the effect of your active bowstring enchantment.
